In our world of pervasive screen time and social media, many of us have become less social in the ways that are not only beneficial, but essential to our mental and physical well-being. Very often parents think that their physical presence at home qualifies as family time, which is not true because parents are mostly busy at home on mobile, watching television, browsing through the internet, etc. Family time is undivided attention both the parents give to their children. Below is a list of 3 family-friendly events that your kids love and rave about with their friends at school!
The Malta Book Festival 2021: Il-Kotba Jieħdu l-Ħajja (Books Come to Life) - DANUSAN
By National Book Council
Do you find yourself listening to endless complaining — or even watch a child run and hide to avoid reading? If you answered yes, you’re not alone! Many parents and teachers struggle with what experts call “reading avoidance.” The Malta Book Festival is organising an event that could flip things around! A professional team of actors led by the charismatic duo DANUSAN will be producing a spectacular live theatre performance adapted from the 2021 Terramaxka Prize winning works. Daniel Chircop and Chrysander Agius themselves will be animating the books in Maltese! The shows will be free for the first time. All you must do is book your seats from the link below!

Little Peeps Travelling Town
By Toy Library Malta
Role playing among kids is a fun way to learn and enhance useful skills in a child's development. It helps them make sense of their environment! Little Peeps Travelling Town at Flora’s in Naxxar is offering children the opportunity to have fun and play in 7 different role play booths which include: Little Savers supermarket, Little Paw Vet Clinic, Fire/Police station, Little Star Café, a construction site, the Starlets theatre, and park area. The Town is a down-scaled version of the popular Little Peeps Pop Up Town, where children will be playing in smaller groups to ensure a safe and fun experience, in line with all local Health Authority guidelines. Kids will be able to immerse themselves in their own world of play thanks to 90 mins of free role play fun. Every toy is highly sterilised between sessions to ensure maximum levels of safety. Due to the limited number of kids allowed per group, make sure to book your play session now!
