LET THE GAMES BEGIN!
East Kilbride Shopping Centre is bringing the excitement of a summer of sport to visitors with a fantastic programme of FREE family activities from 4th to 10th August.
Children can get creative at our arts and crafts sessions, challenge friends and family with giant games including Jenga, Connect Four and Snakes & Ladders, and build, play and explore with our giant soft play blocks in the main event area in Plaza.
The fun continues throughout the centre with exciting sport-themed photo zones including winner’s podium, giant sports deckchair and an athletics selfie station. Curious kids can also take part in our sports themed scavenger hunt while there will be fantastic prizes on offer in a fab Facebook competition.
Inspired by the spirit of the Commonwealth Games, our summer programme celebrates participation, play and friendly competition, giving families the perfect opportunity to create memories together during the school holidays.
Commenting on the summer programme, Alan Smillie, Centre Manager at East Kilbride Shopping Centre, said:
“Scotland is at the centre of the sporting world this summer and we wanted to celebrate with our own fun and games during the school holidays. From giant games to perfect pic selfie areas, we have a fun packed programme for the whole family.”
