Ryan Tubridy is hosting a lovely festive event this Sunday that the kids will love

It’s taking place in Arnotts between 12.15pm and 1.30pm.

If you’re looking for things to keep the kids entertained this weekend, TV and radio personality, Ryan Tubridy is hosting a lovely event that will be sure to get the whole family in the festive spirit.

Ryan will be in the department store for an afternoon of Christmas Stories and a seasonal jumper is the dress code requirement!

Since The Late Late Toy Show aired, Ryan has been practising his Christmas stories and he will be in the childrenswear department of Arnotts this Sunday ready to entertain.

This year the host published his first children’s book, The First Christmas Jumper (And The Sheep Who Changed Everything) which centres on Hillary, the multi-coloured sheep who helped make the very first Christmas jumper. So far, it has been lauded by Ryan’s younger fans who have even taken the time to pen stellar reviews.

And books make a lovely gift for children at Christmas. Every year, the literature segment on the Toy Show is always immensely popular. One of the most talked about moments of the show this year was the appearance of Kerry man Michael in the books corner.

Probably the best-dressed lad of the night, Michael showed up in a classic three-piece suit complete with dickie bow and all to chat about some of his favourite books – one being Little Croker by Joe O’Brien that had been translated into braille by NCBI for the show.

As a big GAA fan, Ryan had a special surprise for Michael on the night which he couldn’t get over.

Ryan is a well-established bookworm himself, so there’s no doubt Sunday’s event will be an unmissable one.
