Ever wanted to design your own board game? Child Friendly Leeds are celebrating the MONOPOLY Leeds Takeover by hosting a free and playful space with board games and other fun activities. Not only can you play the games, but you can also create a board game, and the best designs will WIN a board game to take home!
The afternoon sessions will also have face painters to add to the child-friendly fun!
Join Aspire CBS for an exciting online rock and roll themed bingo session which is being held as part of 100% Digital Leeds’s Arts in Care Digital Programme, to celebrate National Day of Arts in Care Homes.
Held live over Zoom, we will play a line and a full house and when your bingo card is full, unmute and shout Bingo! as loud as you can. There are 20 songs on each bingo card - when you have booked onto this session you will be sent bingo cards to download and print (single-sided).
As part of the Leeds Festival of Play and Creativity I'll be at The Old King's Arms from 12 noon - 4pm.
I'm there to teach and recommend boardgames from a massive selection.
There will be something to suit all ages, interests and abilities.
A lovely afternoon of playing together as a family even if your 'children' are technically grown ups.

Perhaps not yet, but a community of playful spirits is organising the first city-wide DIY Festival of Play and Creativity for this Autumn Half-Term. Leeds is already known for its playful pioneers, and this year, we're planning a feast of fun to brighten the winter months. Our organising crew includes library workers, community members, council workers, artists, and residents — all dedicated to making play a priority. We've hosted three community meet-ups — drawing over 100 local participants from various backgrounds — including individuals and business owners.
We are excited to welcome you to our enchanting outdoor pre-school programme, Tree Toddlers.
Tree Toddlers is designed for curious pre-schoolers aged 3-5, who will be accompanied by caregivers. Our sessions are a delightful blend of fun & learning set amidst the beauty of the Harewood woodland.
Every session is brimming with a wide array of activities & experiences that aim to ignite the young explorers’ curiosity. Children are encouraged to roam freely, discovering & engaging with activities that pique their interests.
Join us for a summer of creative play with our brand new Playscape, created by the wonderful Wild Rumpus.
With over 100 acres of gardens to explore, Harewood House is one of England’s 18th century Treasure Houses and is the perfect place to create lasting family memories. Running throughout the summer holidays, you are invited to join our new play experiences.
Let your little ones take the wheel with our brand-new Mini Rovers.
Enjoy Little Landys on our Play Terrace located just outside the Courtyard. Tickets can be purchased on the day from our Visitor Information Centre and why not have a go on one of our fun-filled lawn games while you wait?
Perfect for ages 5-10, under 4’s can join siblings as a passenger.
Butterflies are taking over this summer, and there’s something for everyone to enjoy while finding out about these stunning creatures and their habitats.
