West London's leading arts centre has announced its winter season of theatre, music and events aimed at children as young as six months and their families. 

Watermans Art Centre has announced that Megson will present its Family Folk Show for ages zero to eight on Sunday 21 January.

Megson are an accomplished folk duo who have created a special show for children and their families. Award-winning folk duo, Megson blend their heavenly vocals and lush harmonies into a gentle, entertaining concert specially for younger children, featuring children's folk songs old and new from their When I Was a Lad and Little Bird albums. 

Watermans welcomes back Baby Broadway with their Baby Knees Up show for children zero to seven years-old on Sunday 4 February.

The show hopes to bring an East-End flavour to a zany interactive family event with bubbles, puppets and plenty of singing along for adults, babies and children led by Tom Carradine. 

In time for half-term between 14 and 16 February, Garlic theatre are back with Snug and Grub Catch a Bug!

This family puppet show for children aged three to eight, offers a wonderfully wiggly adventure for all the family with clowning, a beautifully crafted set, colourful puppets and foot-tapping music. 

Belonging presented by Tangled Feet and Rowan Tree is a new play showing on Sunday 25 February. The collaboration saw the two companies working creatively with children in care and explores a fundamental need we all share – the need to belong.

The play follows the story of Cleo who arrives into a new home, unsure of what the future holds. When Cleo meets Bertie and Leila, the trio unite to find a place called home, learning to balance, dance and climb to navigate imagined worlds, divided loyalties and loved ones far away. 

Dogs Don't Do Ballet from Little Angel Theatre is set to return to Watermans next year (credit: Watermans Art Centre).

Little Angel Theatre with Dogs Don't Do Ballet is set to return on Saturday 9 and Sunday 10 March. The sublime and the ridiculous combine in this hilarious story of a small dog with a big personality and even bigger dreams, brought to life using puppetry, well-loved ballet music and dazzling comedy. 

Head of Children and Families programming, Hakan Silahsizoglu says: "Watermans aims to introduce children to the very best theatre, music, dance and performance and our mission is to create a life-long passion for arts and culture. Many of the companies Watermans works with are leading the way in terms of the way they use performance and storytelling to entertain and inspire, enriching our culture."
