Community invited to take part in “mall-o-ween”
Potomac Mills is offeringWashington, D.C.-area ghouls and boys two fun-filled opportunities to celebrate Halloween this season! The Simon Kidgits Clubwill presents its annual Halloween Extravaganza event on Thursday Oct. 16 from 10 a.m. – 11 a.m. at Court near Saks Fifth Avenue OFF 5TH. Then, on Friday, October 31, the community is invited to take part in Mall-o-ween, a family friendly trick-or-treating alternative.
“Potomac Mills is the perfect place for families looking for Halloween entertainment in a fun, safe community environment,” said Sam Hosn, general manager for Potomac Mills. “Whether kids want to show-off their new costume or take home some Halloween-themed crafts, there is an activity, here, to suit superheroes, princesses and not-so-scary monsters. Mall-o-ween is one of our most popular Simon Kidgits Club programs.”
This year, the Simon Kidgits Club will recognize October as Bully Prevention Month in association with ‘Malls & Retailers Unite Against Bullying’ and Captain McFinn, a proprietary role model, who promotes social and emotional development in children through live virtual playdates, online games, apps and resources for parents and teachers. Families will be encouraged to download
The Bully Free Zone, a free app released by Captain McFinn, filled with fun, educational activities, a new McFinn cartoon and a chance for families to win a free iPad Air.
Families who download the app can sign the Bully Free pledge and help spread the word about bully prevention. With the Kindness Calendar app feature, children and parents can spread the good word via prompts to complete acts of kindness. Once an act is completed, it is tracked in the Kindness feed. The more kind acts that are accomplished, the more badges children and their parents receive.
Potomac Mills will have several activities for children to enjoy including a Halloween craft station, free treats from Starbucks, Ben and Jerry’s and Moe’s Southwest Grill and a special performance by Louis the Magician. Kidgits members will also receive Halloween glow necklaces.
In addition, Potomac Mills will host Mall-o-ween, a mall-wide trick-or-treating event on Friday, October 31 from 6:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. For added fun, guests will also have their choice of face painting or balloon art*. Participating retailers will have a Halloween sticker in their window.
The Simon Kidgits Club is a fun and informative program that focuses on health, wellness, education, safety and entertainment for children ages 3-8. Since 2003, the Simon Kidgits Club has kept children and parents alike amused with various events and activities while providing incentives for club members, such as special offers, rewards and games.
