I have a 6 year-old and a 3 year-old, can I bring them both to this event?

Yes, you can bring them both. However, this event is specifically for children 6 years and above. If they have younger siblings, you can bring them along but they won't be able to participate in the event. There are other available books and colouring sheets for the younger ones to use.
