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 Jefferson Valley Mall on Saturday, August 30, 2014, from 12:00 p.m. to 1:30 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, music and dancing, games, story time with local librarians, face-painting courtesy of Yorktown-based preschool The Learning Experience and a visit from costumed character Dora the Explorer. Introducing what’s hot: Before hitting the books, families can explore the latest clothing, accessory and toy trends from retailers at Jefferson Valley Mall, including a special showcase of back to school gear from Journey’s and deals from Sterling Optical, whose professionals will also be on-hand to conduct vision tests. 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.“At Simon® malls, we know the back-to-school experience means more to families than simply purchasing must-have supplies,” said Alexa O’Rourke, Director of Marketing and Business Development for Jefferson Valley 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.”
