TAKING TEA: Rhoda Fraser as Alice will be dropping in at the Mad Hatter's tea party at Kiplin Hall
THE Mad Hatter's tea party, from Lewis Carroll's classic children's tale, Alice in Wonderland, will be recreated at a 17th century country house.
Kiplin Hall, at Scorton, near Richmond, hosts the half term event on Friday, June 1, when youngsters can make a "mad hat", decorate a dormouse teapot, enjoy story time and play games in the garden. Alice joins the party between 11am and 1pm.
Visitors are invited to wear a hat or dress up as a character from the book for the tea party, which runs from 11am to 4pm.
Admission is £3 and booking is not required. Families can take along a picnic to eat in the garden and children must be accompanied by an adult.
