A day of Crafts and Giggles at Cheltenham Racecourse

This November we were thrilled to be asked to be part of the fun that took place in the Family Fun Zone at Cheltenham Racecourse during their November meet. It was bursting with colour and happy chaos as Crafts & Giggles spent the day crafting, creating, and giggling with so many families. It was a great day, where the grown-ups joined in, and everyone left with something handmade.

From flower crowns to mini horse finger puppets and feather headdresses, the crafting tables stayed lively from start to finish—exactly how we like it!

Flower Crowns Everywhere!

The flower crown making station quickly turned into a floral festival. Families mixed and matched bright flowers, and foliage to build crowns that were worn throughout the race day. It was the perfect way for families to get creative and add a splash of colour to their Cheltenham day out.
 
Mini Horse Finger Puppets Trotted Off with joy

The mini horse finger puppets were a total crowd-pleaser—no surprise being at Cheltenham Racecourse! Children created their own tiny racehorses using shapes, googly eyes, and a whole lot of imagination. Some made speedy champions, others designed cute Shetland ponies.

Feather Headdresses Brought the carnival theme Vibes

Feathers, sparkles, gems… the feather headdress table had it all. This craft was all about going bold, and the children did not hold back! The finished pieces were bright, joyful, and unique. The whole zone shimmered with festival flair as families showed off their handmade creations.
 
What made the day truly special was the atmosphere—relaxed, friendly, creative, and full of giggles. We loved seeing families unwind, get hands-on, and try something new together. 
 
The combination of racing excitement and family-friendly crafting made this November meet one to remember. We left with smiles, glittery fingers, and tons of brilliant handmade masterpieces! A big thank you for having us, we hope to be back soon!
