Free Family Fun for kids at Easter

Tyneside’s Nick Jr. fans should head straight to intu Metrocentre and intu Eldon Square for the chance to follow in the footsteps of their favourite characters.

The popular shopping destinations will be hosting Nick Jr. All Stars experiences throughout the Easter holidays to keep families entertained for free.

Children can immerse themselves in a whole range of free fun activities, including perfecting ninja moves with the Half Shell Heroes, building their own Blaze and Monster Machines or making their wishes come true with a photo on Shimmer and Shine’s flying carpet.

Paw Patrol’s Chase and Marshall will be visiting intu Metrocentre on Wednesday 12 April, and slots to meet the heroic pups were snapped up within twenty minutes of bookings opening. There’s another chance to sign up to meet Chase and Marshall when they visit intu Eldon Square on Friday 21 April, with bookings open to the public on Monday 10 April at www.intu.co.uk/eldonsquare.

At intu Eldon Square, families can hunt for even more Nick Jr. characters and experiences by using their smart devices to scan images they find within the centre, thanks to a free augmented reality game available through the intu app. And guests will be able to take home pictures of themselves with a number of Nick Jr. characters thanks to the magic of green screen technology.

Karen Carr, regional marketing manager, north, at intu, said:

“Parents shouldn’t miss out on the opportunity to put a smile on the faces of every Nick Jr. fan in their family by giving them the chance to take part in free activities and games starring their favourite characters.

“We’ve teamed up with Nick Jr. to run activities in every intu centre across the UK throughout the school holidays and can’t wait for families to see what’s in store as part of their visit to intu Metrocentre and intu Eldon Square. There’s also the opportunity to win an amazing prize, a family break to Nickelodeon Land at Blackpool Pleasure Beach. Full details at intu.co.uk/easter.”
