Lots of us aren’t able to go and see a show with our families or schools this year, so here at Slot Machine HQ, we thought WE’D bring the show to YOU. So here's a gorgeously filmed version of Kipper’s Snowy Day, made specially for 2021, based on the award-winning Kipper books by Mick Inkpen. This special screen version of Kipper’s Snowy Day is streaming via independent venues up and down the UK th
roughout January. Packed with amazing puppetry, gorgeous music and quite a lot of silliness, Kipper’s Snowy Day is guaranteed to bring a huge smile to your face, and a large helping of much-needed cheer. PLUS: If you're looking for stuff to keep youngsters busy at home, there's plenty of activities to make and do on our website, and a great parents' pack too. ABOUT US...
