Along with children’s piping, drumming and dancing competitions, there’s plenty of other fun activities for the kids.

Activities include face painting, balloon twisting, bouncy castle, kids curling, stories, songs and dogs. You can even try to flip a caber, dance a highland fling or learn a few words in Scottish Gaelic.

Come for the culture, stay for the fun!

From engaging crafts to exciting games, there’s something for every young Scot-in-the-making. Watch their faces light up as they enjoy hands-on fun, interactive entertainment, and special performances designed just for them. Whether they’re trying their hand at traditional Scottish arts or burning off energy with lively activities, it’s the perfect way to make lasting family memories.
