For younger children aged five to 12, Go Play Sandwell is hosting virtual Halloween parties through Zoom and will be bringing spooky fun to the homes of those who join in. Children can dress up and get involved in fun games at these virtual sessions.
Parties take place with six sessions each day from Monday 26 to Saturday 31 October and can be accessed through the Go Play website.
Councillor Joyce Underhill, cabinet member for best start in life, said: “We wanted to offer some extra sessions this Halloween for children and young people to enjoy from home.
“There is fun for all the family to get involved in and we hope young people will log on to get involved with our half-term Halloween events.”
