Pet Photos with the Easter Bunny at Northshore Mall

Pet Photos with the Easter Bunny at Northshore Mall, Peabody MA

Northshore Mall is in the spring spirit, celebrating the season with the Easter Bunny himself who is now at the mall and is gearing up for a very egg-citing event taking place.

Pet Photo Night with Bunny is part of the festive Bunny Photo Experience, as many pet owners view their pets as important members of the family!  Pets will have their own turn to visit with Bunny, and take photos of the fun. Photo packages and pricing will vary, and guests can learn more at the Bunny set.

When: 
Sunday, March 29, 2020 from 6 – 8p.m.

It’s not the holidays without gingerbread cookies! Join us in the kitchen for a gingerbread cookie decorating workshop for kids. First we’ll learn how to make the dough from scratch – measure ingredients, learn about the science behind baking, work the dough, and cut out the shapes. Then we’ll provide gingerbread cookies, and icing and candies for decorating. Each child will take home five (5) decorated cookies. After our creations are complete, we’ll move into the dining room to enjoy treats, hot cocoa, and a gingerbread man story.
