Simon Kidgits Club Super Duper Lil Chefs makes its annual appearance at Concord Mills on Saturday, June 7 from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the Food Court. Lil Chefs events are being presented at approximately 100 Simon® shopping centers nationwide to get kids learning about the craft of cooking and having fun with food.
The hands-on atmosphere of Simon Kidgits Club Super Duper Lil Chefs will engage both parents and children in exploring the endless imaginative possibilities of pairing creativity with cuisine. The event menu offers a variety of food-focused festivities ranging from cooking demonstrations to etiquette lessons and craft-making with meal items, including cookie decorating with Great American Bagel and pretzel twisting with Auntie Anne’s. Other area restaurants providing food-inspired activities include PDQ, Tony Sacco’s Coal Oven Pizza and Sbarro.
Additionally, Simon Kidgits Club® is teaming up with Lil Chefs presenting sponsor Warner Bros. Home Entertainment for the launch of Sophia Grace & Rosie’s Royal Adventure, now available on DVD, Blu-ray™ and Digital HD. The super-cute, talented two-some of Sophia Grace and Rosie sang and danced their way to stardom on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, and now families can see the little, lovable performers in their first original live-action movie. In celebration of this release, Lil Chefs attendees at Concord Mills will learn to balance a teacup like a true prince or princess, decorate tiaras and crowns and take home candy necklaces.
Also as part of Lil Chefs events, kids are encouraged to help those in need by bringing a non-perishable food item to Concord Mills to be donated to Second Harvest Food Bank.
