Families are invited to a fantastic and free day out at the Sandwell Families Big Picnic this half-term.
The picnic, which attracted hundreds of children, parents and carers last year, is on Thursday 31 May by the children's play area in Dartmouth Park, West Bromwich from 11am until 3pm.
This is the ninth annual picnic hosted by Sandwell Council's Family Information Service and promises to be bigger and better than previous years.
Families are asked to bring a picnic along and join in with the free activities on offer including face painting, balloon modelling, circus skills with Steve the Juggler, storytelling, play activities, arts and crafts, sporting activities, animal fun, information stands and much more.
Councillor Simon Hackett, cabinet member for children's services said: "This is a great event for families and best of all, the activities are all free.
"I encourage parents and carers to bring their children and a picnic and enjoy the day. We just hope the weather is as kind to us as it was last year."
