Head Back to School in Style with the Kidgits Club at Brea Mall

Simon, a leading global retail real estate company, is holding a special celebration to help young students and parents across the country ‘make the grade’ even before the school year begins. Families are invited to score an “A+” in preparedness and entertainment with Simon Kidgits Club®’s annual Back-to-School event at Brea Mall on Saturday, September 20, from noon to 2 p.m. in Center Court.

Simon Kidgits Club’s Back-to-School event will feature a variety of interactive activities for children and valuable offers for adults, all designed to make transitioning into academic routines a little easier.

· Infusing some fun: To incorporate excitement into getting back to the classroom, kids will have the opportunity to participate in seasonal-inspired craft-making activities and games to celebrate the new school year.

· Introducing what’s hot: Before hitting the books, families can explore the latest clothing, accessory and toy trends from retailers at Brea Mall.

· Sharing savvy ways to save: Event attendees will have the chance to win prizes and giveaways and tackle their back to school shopping lists with exclusive retailer coupons.

· Giveaways: Simon Kidgits Club members will receive a free Crayola jumbo pen, while supplies last!

“At Simon® malls, we know the back-to-school experience means more to families than simply purchasing must-have supplies,” said Anna Cotter, Director of Marketing and Business Development at Brea Mall. “We’re hosting our annual Back-to-School event to encourage parents and kids to connect with each other, enjoy a final moment of summer fun at their favorite Simon mall, and are ready to take on a new school year.”

The Simon Kidgits Club is a fun and informative program that focuses on health, wellness, education, safety and entertainment for children ages 3-8. The Simon Kidgits Club has kept children and parents alike amused for over a decade with various events and activities while providing incentives for club members, such as special offers, rewards and games.
