Happy Tots Day Nursery, in Barrow, hosted an open day full of fun to raise cash for the National Deaf Children’s Society.
The nursery had a bouncy castle, disco and fundraising events including a tombola, face painting and a raffle on Sunday.
A number of other activities at the nursery took place last week to raise money for the society.
The Abbey Road nursery was inspired by one of its pupils, Honor Morton, three, who is partially deaf.
Anna Archer, deputy manager of Happy Tots, was thrilled with the support from parents and businesses.
She said: “It was just generally a really fun day for all the children.
“We have a couple of deaf children in the nursery, so we wanted to build on that and raise money for the charity.
“We have had great support and had a lot of raffle prizes donated, including hair and beauty vouchers, bottles of wine and lots more.
“We decided to use the charity fun day as an open day too so anyone could come.
“And we showed a number of families around, which is great.”
Smiling faces all round proved the day was a success.
The Bay radio station was based in a tent outside, broadcasting from the nursery, while hundreds of children had their faces painted, played in the ball pit and tried their hands at the lucky dip.
Ms Archer added: “We thought it would be nice to give the children something to do on a Sunday.”
