It’s February half term with the schools in Cardiff off from Monday 16 to Friday 20 February. And, you know the drill by now, I’ve rounded up all the family-friendly events I can find in Cardiff and surrounding areas. There’s loads going on, from theatre shows and family arts and craft sessions to outdoor adventures and animal encounters. There’s loads of free or low costs events too.
Do check ahead with the venues as all events are subject to change or cancellation. And if you visit anywhere you see here, let them know you saw it on Cardiff Mummy Says.

Theatre and performance

Sherman Theatre, Cardiff
Wednesday 11-Saturday 14 February
Age guidance 3-7; approx 45 minutes
£12; separate English and Welsh performances.
Pete the badger likes everything to be neat and tidy: the flowers, the leaves, even the other animals. But, when autumn comes, he gets a little bit carried away with cleaning up the forest and accidently destroys his own home. Based on the much-loved children’s book by author and illustrator, Emily Gravett, Tidy and Welsh-language version Taclus is a gentle but cautionary tale about the value of the world around us and what happens if we don’t look after it. With beautiful puppets, original music and a touch of silliness, this playful story will delight young audiences, as it explores how everyone needs a little bit of wild chaos in their lives.

Saturday 14-Thursday 19 February

From the writers of Hairspray comes John Waters’ cult classic teen rebellion, bursting onto the stage with guitar riffs, bad behaviour and deliciously twisted 1950s satire. Meet Wade ‘Cry Baby’ Walker, Baltimore’s baddest good boy, and Allison, the society sweetheart who falls hard for him and his crew of leather clad outcasts. As the clean cut squares declare war on the rock and roll misfits, this gloriously unhinged musical ignites into a high camp riot of romance, rebellion and rockabilly.
