The sessions sit in a practical slot for families with babies, toddlers and pre-school children: late enough for a morning journey, but finishing before lunchtime routines begin. Because the event is drop-in, it may suit families who cannot commit to a full course or who want to try a local activity without booking ahead.
Singing, play and early-years company
The source description presents Family Singing for Fun as a musical play group rather than a performance. That means the focus is on taking part, with young children and their adults joining in the session together.
The group is led by community artists Tina Freeland and Mairi Morrison. For parents and carers, that named leadership matters: it gives the session a clear creative focus, rather than leaving it as an open room with no stated structure.
For children aged 0 to 5, music-based play can also make a session easier to access across different ages. Babies, toddlers and older pre-school children can engage at different levels, while carers remain part of the activity.
Free entry with no booking step
Glasgow Life lists the tickets for Family Singing for Fun as free, with drop-in entry and no ticket required. The event is also described as a Glasgow Life project supported by Thenue Communities and Clyde Gateway.
The practical instruction from the organiser is simple: there is no need to book, and families can just drop in. The published information does not list separate accessibility, transport, food or stall details, so families who need those arrangements should rely on the venue and organiser information available through the event listing.
The final listed sessions are 10:00am to 11:30am on Monday 25 May, Monday 1 June, Monday 8 June, Monday 22 June and Monday 29 June 2026 at Calton Heritage Learning Centre, 423 London Road.
