While 2021 continues to be a challenge for families, finding ways to entertain the children on a budget can be hard.
Luckily, the team at Pakenham Central Marketplace are running free school holiday activities at their centre this September.
Spring is the season of new beginnings. Fresh flowers bloom, farmers and gardeners plant their seeds and temperatures slowly rise.
With a delightful spring time theme, children can participate in activities such as creating critter keyrings, bug puppets, spring nesting birds and more.
Shake off the winter blues and try these fun spring activities being run over five days during the school holidays, from 11am to 2pm.
As with everything these days, the activities will be run in a CovidSafe manner, with check in and number limits. Should we go into another lockdown, fingers crossed this won’t happen, the centre will be running an online competition with activities and giveaways to keep the kids entertained.
Where: 50-54 John St, Pakenham.
Tuesday 21 September: Spring Nesting Birds Workshop
Thursday 23 September: Critter Keyring Making
Monday 27 September: Bug Puppet Creation Workshop
Wednesday 29 September: Spring Creature Mask Making
Friday 1 October: Magic Scratch Bee Ornament Making
While at Pakenham Central Marketplace the kids might want to check out Smiggle or Big W, but we highly recommend that parents take a break and enjoy a coffee and one of the many cafes.
