Back-to-school shopping has never been better in Dubai where Majid Al Futtaim’s malls are running a host of fun kids activities and unbeatable promotions prior to the start of the new school term.
Mall of the Emirates, City Centre Deira, Mirdif, Me’aisem and Al Shindagha have everything the kids need to get prepped to go back to class from stationary, gym kits, lunch boxes, school bags, hair accessories to shoes and more. Parents can avail from unbeatable promotions on school gear from mall retailers such as Shoe Mart, Skechers, Sanrio (Hello Kitty), Jashanmal Around the World, Samsonite, Virgin Mega Store, Jumbo Electronics and Forever 21.
Preparing for the start of the school year isn’t just about shopping at the malls. At City Centre Deira kids can get their thinking caps on at the mall’s workshops. Parents who shop for AED 300 or more in the mall can take part in Spectacular Science Workshops, an innovative ‘gamification’ concept that is both educational and fun. Children will learn about such concepts as environmental protection, computer programming and more during dazzling daily demonstrations led by a quirky ‘mad scientist’. Running from September 3 – 9 the exhilarating interactive sessions will cover a different topic each day, and youngsters are encouraged to return to the mall to experience more than one. Each participant will produce work to take home and receive a ‘science starter kit’ containing a lab apron, a pair of safety goggles and materials to be used during the workshop he or she signed up for.
“Majid Al Futtaim is leading the way in retail with its innovative gamification concepts, and families who choose its malls for their back-to-school shop will find heaps of entertainment alongside the generous sales promotions,” said Fuad Mansoor Sharaf, Managing Director for Majid Al Futtaim Properties, Shopping Malls (UAE, Bahrain & Oman).
