FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
BUNNY PHOTO EXPERIENCE IS COMING SOON TO QUAKER BRIDGE MALL TO DELIGHT FAMILIES AT EASTER
LAWRENCEVILLE, NJ Feb. 27, 2013 — Simon Property Group, Inc. (NYSE:SPG), the world’s leading retail real estate company, is hosting its annual Easter celebration festivities at Quaker Bridge Mall, offering families the chance to participate in both traditional and seasonal events.
Lawrenceville-area children and parents are encouraged to “hop” to it this Easter season as the holiday arrives early on Sunday, March 31. The Bunny Photo Experience begins Saturday, March 9 at 1 p.m. and runs through Saturday March 30 at Quaker Bridge Mall. Kids will have the chance to visit with the Easter Bunny and take home a treasured snapshot of the fun occasion.
The presenting sponsor for the 2013 Bunny Photo Experience is Gymboree. The event’s associate sponsor is ScanimalzTM, a collectible plush line that captures what kids love: cuddly toys, technology and playing games on smartphones and tablets. With Scanimalz, parents and kids can simply download the free iOS and Android Scanimalz App to scan the QR codes on Scanimalz belly to play games, track their collections, earn points and work their way up the leader board.
“We love to hold family-friendly events at Quaker Bridge Mall and we always look forward to watching children interact with the Bunny at Easter,” said Shannon Brzuchalski, director of mall marketing at Quaker Bridge Mall.
The Simon Kidgits Club® will also host a special Easter event on Saturday, March 9 at 1 p.m. where kids can participate in various craft-making activities and games, and Kids Music Round will be present to lead children in sing-alongs and dances. Plus a special, limited edition Scanimalz Easter Bunny will be given away to Kidgits members (while supplies last), so families can get in on the Scanimalz world of fun and games.
The Simon Kidgits Club is a fun and informative program that focuses on health, wellness, education, safety and entertainment for children ages 3-8. Celebrating its 10th anniversary in 2013, the Simon Kidgits Club has kept children and parents alike amused for a decade with various events and activities while providing incentives for club members, such as special offers, rewards and games.
