Simon malls are encouraging children across the country to develop a love for literature and learning with books. On Saturday, March 23, Simon Kidgits Club at Firewheel Town Center is hosting a free Book Blast event inviting families to participate and be inspired to read together at home and beyond.

Simon Kidgits Club’s Book Blast is offering an assortment of fun book-based activities to ultimately help kids reap the many benefits of reading. According to the National Center for Education Statistics, a division of the U.S. Department of Education, children who are read to at home enjoy substantial advantages over children who are not.  Book Blast event offerings include a read-aloud sessions, set to take place from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the park, presented by Firewheel Town Center’s Kidgits Club.

Books to be read include selections from Dr. Seuss, Curious George, and Maisey. Children are also invited to bring a new or gently used book to the events to be donated to Galaxy Counseling Center, further fostering the importance of reading within the community. Book Blast will be a part of Firewheel Town Center’s annual Kidsfest event, including an Easter Egg Hunt kickoff and additional children’s activities.

“Simon Kidgits Club continuously aims to provide children enjoyable, easily-accessible educational opportunities that incorporate some fun,” stated Monica Bermea, director of marketing and business development. “Book Blast does just that; events will motivate families to read, learn and be entertained in a familiar environment that’s close to home.”

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.
