Bored? Desperately looking for something new and exciting to do with your bundles of joy? Then come get your FUNNIES on! Funnybones Music is a lively, interactive multi award winning music show (45mins approx which includes the return of biscuit time) for children under five (from 6 months - 5 years).
Based around a programme of songs, poems and nursery rhymes, we go on a different journey each week. Combining actions, numbers, colours, puppets, props, costumes and rather importantly comedy. It's a fantastic way for children to learn, gain confidence, learn to take turns/ share and develop their sense of humour.
Head over to Funnybones Music for some much needed multi-award winning hilarities! Bookings now being taken for AUTUMN TERM 2025!
All new Baby Bones classes have started on Thursdays at 11am during the term time. Same fun, for 0-1 year olds! PAY AS YOU GO! £5 on the door!
AND...
Funnybones Music will be running a couple more Summer Special classes on Tuesday 12th & Thursday 14th August 2025.
Please email Rich at [email protected] to book your place. It is £10.00 for one child and £5.00 for any additional children. Older siblings are very welcome, but I would suggest that any over 6 may find this class a bit young. There will be a different funny theme on week one and week two.
Don't stop there though - you can also book a Funnybones Music party for any occasion!
Don’t miss out! Believe the hype!
