✨ North West End Live performances
✨ A free backstage tour of The Lowry
✨ Pirate Taxi outdoor circus show

We recently spent the day at HOME Manchester and it was a great opportunity to learn more about the venue's wider family programme.

If you've followed me for a while, you'll know we already visit HOME regularly for family theatre productions and the Little HOME festival, but this visit gave us the chance to spend more time exploring some of the other family-friendly activities available.

The children loved spending time in Creativity Corner, which has become one of their favourite parts of visiting HOME. Alice enjoyed the dressing-up costumes, puppets and imaginative play, while Leo got stuck into the crafts and proudly made a jellyfish to take home.

We also tried HOME Bar & Kitchen for the first time and the pizza and chips were a huge hit with all of us.

And our day at HOME didn't end there either, as Alice and I returned later that evening to watch Malory Towers. It was the perfect way to round off the day and a lovely reminder that HOME offers so much for families.

We've also attended Little HOME for the last two years and already have several events booked for this summer. Little HOME, HOME's free annual family festival, returns on 1st and 2nd August with a packed programme of family activities, performances, workshops and screenings.

Why HOME is great for families:

🎭 Regular family theatre productions

🎬 Family and relaxed cinema screenings

🎨 Creativity Corner with crafts, books, dressing-up and imaginative play

🖼️ Free gallery exhibitions

🍕 HOME Bar & Kitchen

🚋 Easy to reach by bus, tram and train

🎪 Little HOME – HOME's free annual family festival

If you're looking for family-friendly things to do in Manchester, HOME is definitely worth checking out.

We went to see Sisters 360 and it turned out to be such a lovely family theatre trip ✨

Sisters 360 follows step-sisters Fatima and Salima as they chase their dream of winning a skateboarding competition — but when family life changes, their bond is put to the test 🛹✨

A fun, high-energy show full of heart, humour and lovely messages about sisterhood and resilience ❤️

Alice was completely transfixed the whole time and loved getting a handshake and fist bump from Salima 🥹

Both kids also loved the colourful bat puppet 🦇🌈

Such a feel-good theatre trip for families ✨

🕵️‍♂️ Come with us to the Spies, Lies and Deception Exhibition at the Imperial War Museum North…

This free, family-friendly exhibition in Greater Manchester explores the secret world of espionage through real artefacts, spy gadgets and interactive experiences.

From dressing up as a spy in the Mission Room to completing the Secret Mission trail, there’s plenty to keep younger visitors engaged — while the powerful real-life stories add depth for adults too.

Running until 31 August 2026, it’s a brilliant option if you’re looking for something educational and interactive to do with the family.

We went to the new Horrible Science: Cosmic Chaos exhibition at the Science and Industry Museum in Manchester and it was such a fun family day out 🚀

From touching a real piece of the Moon 🌕 to exploring all the interactive exhibits, there was so much for the kids to get stuck into. Alice loved dressing up as an astronaut and both of them really enjoyed all the hands-on activities throughout.

Even though our time slot (and most of the others that day) were sold out, it didn’t feel overcrowded at all. There was plenty of space to explore and we never felt rushed, which made such a difference.

It took us just over an hour to go round and it’s definitely one I’d recommend if you’re looking for something fun and interactive to do in Manchester 💫

✨ FAMILY WEEKLY UPDATE ✨

This week was a mix of everything — catching up on editing, a lovely theatre night with my mum, lots of Easter prep, and finishing it all off with a really fun Easter party 🐰💛

One of my highlights had to be going to see Top Hat The Musical at The Lowry — such a feel-good show and a really special night out with my mum 💃

The rest of the week was full-on Easter mode… baking, decorating, making a piñata (which took way longer than I expected 😅), and getting everything ready for our party.

Easter Sunday was such a lovely day. The kids had their Easter surprises, we did an egg hunt, played games, and spent time with family — exactly what Easter should be all about 💛

✨ TOP HAT THE MUSICAL – THE LOWRY ✨

On Tuesday, my mum and I headed to The Lowry to see Top Hat the Musical and it ended up being such a lovely evening 💛

I’ll be honest — old-school musicals aren’t usually my thing, but this one really surprised me. The tap dancing is incredible, the costumes are stunning and there were so many songs I recognised 🎶

My mum absolutely loved it too — especially the humour and the big dance numbers — and it was just such a nice night to spend together ✨

A rainy walk, a nostalgic show and a really lovely night with my dad 💛

On Tuesday we went to The Lowry to see Eric & Ern — and it ended up being such a special evening.

It was absolutely chucking it down when we arrived (and way too windy for an umbrella 🌧️), but once we were inside with a drink in hand and settled into our seats, it felt like the perfect cosy night out.

I’ve only ever seen a few clips of Morecambe and Wise before, so I didn’t recognise a lot of the sketches, and it’s not quite my usual style of humour…

…but my dad absolutely loved it 🥰 He was laughing the whole way through, and seeing how much he enjoyed it honestly made the night for me.

We both agreed the second act was even better, and overall we had such a nice time together.

🌿 A lovely morning at Z-arts to see Brave Bettie 🌿

We went into Manchester to see Brave Bettie, a woodland adventure for children aged 3–8.

Before the show even started the children were invited into the story — learning some Shona words and a rain dance they later got to perform during the show.

Alice and Leo even got picked to shout out their favourite animals which they were very excited about 🐧🦒

It’s a really thoughtful show about courage, friendship and protecting nature, with some lovely interactive moments for younger audiences.

🌳 Our trip to see Brave Bettie at Z-arts 🌳

We had such a lovely morning heading into Manchester to see Brave Bettie, a woodland adventure for children aged 3–8.

The story follows Bettie, who loves the woodland behind her home. When she discovers it’s going to be cut down, she wishes for the courage to save it — and suddenly a legendary protector from the stories she reads appears to help her on an adventure through the forest.

Alice loved the moment where Bettie helps a hedgehog collect leaves, and Leo’s favourite part was when everyone joined in with the rain dance.

My Weekly Update: 26th January – 1st February is now up on the blog 💛

This week was such a lovely mix of theatre, creativity and family life — from a rare grown-up date night at The National Lottery’s Big Night of Musicals 🎭 to lots of behind-the-scenes blog work and crafty experiments.

Lawrence and I had the best night at the AO Arena (just the two of us!), I finally tried shrink plastic charms for my theatre characters, had a very exciting Hobbycraft delivery, and we ended the week helping Leo create his Arctic habitat for school ❄️

Seeing him so proud of his project honestly made the whole week.

Sometimes it’s the mix of big theatre moments and little creative wins that makes everything feel special ✨

Come with us to see The Smeds and The Smoos at The Lowry! 🚀✨

This charming stage adaptation of Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler’s beloved story follows Janet the Smed and Bill the Smoo — two star-crossed alien friends whose families don’t get along. When the young couple runs away, their families travel across colourful planets in search of them, meeting quirky creatures and having all sorts of cosmic adventures along the way! 🌈

Alice and I loved exploring the vibrant planets, meeting cheeky alien puppets, clapping along to catchy songs, and even getting a little wet when Grandfather Smed and Grandmother Smoo watered the Lurgles’ roses! 💦 From swimming with the Smeds in the Loobular Lake to shouting and pointing where Janet and Bill were hiding in the Wurplar Wood, the children got to join in all the fun.

⭐ On at The Lowry until 1st November

⭐️ We gave it a sparkling 5 stars! 🌟
