Fun, free cooking workshops to take place at intu Lakeside this half term
Creative cooking tops poll of parents and children who were asked what they most wanted to do during the school holidays
Mini Mary Berrys and pint-sized Paul Hollywoods can get their creative cooking juices flowing at free events taking place at intu Lakeside this half term.
The shopping centre is running the daily cookery events for children during half term after asking local families how they most wanted to fill their free time.
Cookery was chosen by classmates of intu Heads of Fun Esther 10, Logan 7 from intu Metrocentre, and Aidan 8, Lucie 7 from intu Braehead, the youngest members of their teams tasked with keeping the shopping centres fun and child friendly. The theme was also selected by intu’s nationwide shopper view panel, made up of customers at its 14 centres up and down the country, who were polled on the activities they’d most like their children to take part in during the school holidays.
Different activities such as teddy bear picnic themed activities including creating flower pot cupcakes and gooey garden brownies will take place at intu Lakeside from Monday 13 February until Friday 17 February from 11am – 4pm.
Ben Leeson, Marketing Manager at intu Lakeside, said: “More than 70 per cent of our guests have young families so we’ll be helping them make the most of half term with the opportunity for children to leave the centre having cooked up amazing treats or picked up a new skill they can try again at home.
“intu Lakeside’s talented Head of Fun helped us to come up with the theme that we hope will put a smile on the face of every little chef in our centre this half term. It’s just one example of the compelling events we run in our centre all year round made possible thanks to invaluable insight from our customers.”
Activities are free for all the family and are open to all ages.
