Who's up for a HALLOWEEN PARTY!?

[kapaxiana]

What a great idea! What are you thinking?

[KWinberry]

I have spoken to Jen, the Manager of the Crooked Well and they're happy to host it as they now open on Wednesday mornings from 10.30am...

Thought it would be fun to dress up the bubs and tots.

What do others think?

[kapaxiana]

Hopefully there will be some more people interested, count us in :-)

[KWinberry]

Hi,

The Crooked Well is in Camberwell, on Grove Lane.

They host mums and bubs on Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday mornings from 10.30am, so on the 31st there will be the usual coffee, pastries and crumpets with the added delight of bubs in fancy dress (not mums- unless you fancy it)..

Should be fun!

Just show up, hope to see you there!

Hello,

Check out this link for some seriously cute costume ideas: https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=baby+halloween&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&um=1&ie=UTF-8&hl=en&tbm=isch&source=og&sa=N&tab=wi&ei=WHR0UPSyL4yAhQfWlIHIBw&biw=1152&bih=551&sei=W3R0UKSCC9CT0QW9voGoAg#um=1&hl=en&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US%3Aofficial&tbm=isch&sa=1&q=baby+halloween+costumes&oq=baby+halloween+costumes&gs_l=img.1.0.0l8j0i5l2.77.77.1.1967.1.1.0.0.0.0.114.114.0j1.1.0...0.0...1c.bB_29P9eGGY&pbx=1&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_qf.&fp=dbbb159d35099aca&biw=1152&bih=551

I should note though, that don't go to a huge expense or stress to dress up your bub as it's just for fun. The theme is 'fun, fairytale or fearful' to extend the range of costume options...

If we get a large group, we'll move to the upstairs area which is currently being refurbished (looks like it's going to be a fabulous space once complete).

Thanks for your PMs and emails, I'm excited!

I'm a nanny so would be interested. Would it be ok for a 3yrs old or is it more for the younger ones?

Halloween party sounds awesome. I have a cheeky 2yr old Darcy and a month old son Jude.will see you guys there on 31st . appreciate your shout out about it !

[KWinberry]

Hi!

Things are shaping up for the Halloween Party, and given it is half term we welcome little ones too. Due to limited space, if possible to bring bubs in slings it will reduce buggy-jams.

Here are the details again:

Wednesday 31st October

10.30am ? 12.30pm

@ The Crooked Well

16 Grove Lane, Camberwell SE5 8SY

Enjoy coffee, pastries & crumpets

Fancy dress theme for bubs (not adults): "fun, fairy tale or fearsome?"

Cheers

Kath

I would love to take my 23 month old son!! It sound fun.

[KWinberry]

Hi,

Slight change of plans... we're having it a little earlier 10am - 12pm this Wednesday 31st October as the Crooked Well has a wedding party booked in at lunchtime. So I promised that we would clear out by 12.15pm - (before terrifying the bride with the reality of kids!)

Just a little note as mentioned, if the morning time doesn't suit you/bub, there is another Halloween party in the afternoon, which is also for bigger kids on half term:

4.30pm - 7pm

At Locale (which is near Goose Green park)

58-60 East Dulwich Road

SE22 9AX

** PLEASE NOTE: YOU MUST REGISTER FOR THE SWAP AND SELL MARKET AT THE CROOKED WELL**

Hi there,

Thanks everyone for coming to the Crooked Well's Halloween party on Wednesday. It was wonderful to see so many colourful bubs in a huge range of costumes.

What we dicovered though is that buggies are very space-occupying and therefore I am concerned about the planned swap and sell market next Tuesday 6th November, as we have had an overwhelming number of people express their interest in participating

So we have decided to limit the number of sellers at the baby clothes swap & sell market , to suitably accommodate everyone.

Could you please email Jen [email protected] if you want to sell.

I just don't want it to be stressful or chaotic for anyone involved. Could you please let others know about this.

In addition, the Crooked Well will have their regular coffee, crumpets and pastries from 10.30am at 16 Grove Lane Camberwell SE5 8SY.

If you miss out on registering but have items you wish to sell immediately, Goodrich School is having a 'Table-top Car Boot Sale':

http://www.friendsofgoodrich.com/

Goodrich School Table Top Sale Saturday 10 November ? 2-4pm

In the playground or inside if wet.

More info: Back for a second year, the Goodrich table top car boot sale! Book yourself a table (?10 each) by speaking to or emailing Roz or Sally (email addresses on their website in the above link) and gather together all your saleable stuff ? toys, bikes, babywear, books, homewares, unwanted Christmas presents, clothes etc. If you only have a few things to sell, get together with a friend and share a table. Or just come along and shop ? and bring all your friends.

If you have items you would like to donate to the homeless, simply drop them down to:

Sternhall Lane Surgery,

12 Sternhall Lane Peckham,

London, SE15 4NT

8am - 6.30pm

(See this thread for more information: http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?28,984919,990419#msg-990419)

For those who can, please bring babies in buggies or car seats (there is free parking near by at Morrisons)

best wishes
