Spring Break for the kids with Weekend Fun at BurJuman

Spring is in the air and BurJuman is offering kids lots of fun ways to get busy for free with three exciting spring break weekends full of ‘Weekend Fun’ in March.

On March 1-2, kids can get into the rhythm with Drumming Workshops every evening. The fun sessions will teach kids to beat out a lively tune using simple hand movements, followed by energetic traditional African dance performances and exciting group games. Kids will also be able to take home colourful keepsakes of their evening entertainment in the form of African masks and domroo drums they have decorated themselves at the arts & crafts workshops open all evening. 

Hip-hoppers can get in on the action the following weekend with March 8-9 bringing kids numerous chances to watch talented professional dancers pop, lock and krump onstage – and learn some moves of their own. The Hip Hop Workshop will progress from teaching simple steps to choreography and ensemble routines with a dance off at the end of each session and 6 prizes up for grabs each day. Kids will be able to get the look with colourful hand-made props such as bandanas and beaded bracelets or go all out with beaded braids and temporary tattoos.  

Little fashionistas all geared up in their favourite Denim togs, will be in for a treat come March 15-16 with the Denim Fashion Show and Catwalk Workshops. A professional model coach will teach kids how to walk the ramp, while a kiddie make up studio, nail art and hair salon will get them prepped and prettified for the catwalk. There’ll even be time to personalize their own tote bags, make jelly bean jewellery to go with their outfits and win tons of prizes in fun games dressing up mannequins or copying fashion-forward looks. 

The ‘Weekend Fun’ will take place from 6-9pm on March 1-2, 8-9 and 15-16 at Level 1, opposite Virgin Megastore, BurJuman. Kids can pre-register at any information counter for the Catwalk Workshops before March 15. All other events can be registered for on the day.
