Free half-term workshops in Dunstable will give children a chance to learn how to keep pets safe in autumn and winter months.
Pets at Home is running Kids’ Holiday Pet Club workshops throughout the school break.
The team aims to educate and inform children about responsible pet ownership in a fun, friendly and interactive environment.
All sorts of popular pets will be brought along to the workshops and children will be given a free activity book, with puzzles, stickers and a certificate.
Keeping pets safe and warm will be a key focus of the workshops.
And children will be taken through the daily steps needed to keep outdoor pets such as rabbits and guinea pigs warm and well-fed during colder weather.
Store manager Sue Beeton said: “The October half-term workshops are a great opportunity to talk to children about how the changing seasons can affect pets and the best way to care for them during autumn and winter.”
Pets at Home staff will be on hand to give advice and answer any questions parents or children may have about what pet is right for their families. More details are available from the White Lion Retail Park store.
