The event itself was brilliant. Like I said above, I love events at Harry Hartog (Woden) - the team always create comfortable, and welcoming atmosphere. Blast Off's author, Shelly Unwin, was amazing. The kids had so much fun as she ran them through a few tests to make sure they were brave and fit enough to be astronauts (and had them spin around a few times to make sure they wouldn't get motion sick in space haha) before reading the book with them.  There were also loads of activities for them to do, including colouring packs and diy paper rockets they could blast off with a straw. I'm sure one of the highlights for the kids was when they got to take turns at launching a foam rocket across the store!
