What To Do With The Kids These Holidays?
Stumped for ideas on how to keep the kids busy and entertained these school holidays? Especially activities that are both fun AND educational? Good news. Cresta Shopping Centre has partnered with the fantastic Young Engineers to bring shoppers a great activity for kids, from 29 June – 15 July 2018.
The enthusiastic team will provide an engaging, hands-on learning platform where educational goals are achieved by using LEGO® and K’nex® assembly kits, uniquely designed by their trained staff to demonstrate scientific principles in a fun way. The experiments are not only fascinating, but form scientific intuition with stories that capture the imagination.
The Young Engineers team will be set up at the Cresta Shopping Centre Kids Holiday Zone, outside The Barnyard Theatre on the Lower Level, every Friday, Saturday and Sunday of the school holidays, kicking off on Friday, 29 June 2018.
