“We love to hold family-friendly events at Del Amo Fashion Center and we always look forward to watching children interact with the Bunny at Easter,” said Lindsay Hermance, director of marketing and business development at Del Amo Fashion Center. 

Fragrant flowers, buzzing bees and springtime sunshine are all beautiful reminders that Easter is here! The Simon Kidgits Club® will also host a special Kidgits Hop Into Spring event on Saturday, April 12 from 10 a.m. to noon in JoAnn’s Court, where kids can participate in various craft-making activities and games. 

The Kidgits Club will be celebrating Easter with Gymboree Play & Music with singing, bubbles, crafts, face painting, and of course, an Easter egg hunt! The fun begins at 10 a.m., with a special appearance by the Easter Bunny himself. Most activities will be geared toward children ages 0-5, but all children are welcome to attend.

Participants will receive a Kidgits® Easter bucket and Kidgits bunny ears as a keepsake to take home.

The Simon Kidgits Club is a fun and informative program that focuses on health, wellness, education, safety and entertainment for children ages 3-8.
