Kiddies' Camp on Easter Sunday

Cinnamon Lakeside Colombo is dedicated to ensuring that even their littlest guests have a smashing good time at the hotel. The Kiddies' Camp program was designed to address this in a productive fashion by introducing an educational element to activities on the children's schedule.

The monthly Kiddies' Camp hosted by the hotel is often based on a topical theme. Themes have ranged from Halloween and Christmas to even an Avurudu Pola. This April the hotel presents an Easter Kiddies' Camp appropriately scheduled to take place on Easter Sunday.

The action packed afternoon will feature classic Easter activities. Children will be provided the utensils to decorate their own Easter egg, with a focus on creativity and skill. The final product is sure to make the parents proud.

The hotel's pastry chefs, who devotedly contribute their time to the program, will guide the children through the step by step process of making hot cross buns. The chefs segments of the programs give the kids the freedom to get messy and as expected, are well received by the playful participants.

The hotel's management believes it is important to cultivate talent at early phases of children's development and exposure to a variety of skills is part and parcel of their education.

No Easter would be complete without an Easter egg hunt. Spread across the vast expanse of garden at the Waterside where Kiddies' Camps are held, children can look forward to a challenging hunt! Further equilibrating the educational and entertainment factors, a puppet workshop conducted by acclaimed puppeteer and theatrical artiste Sulochana Dissanayake, allows children to participate and shape the story line of the show whilst absorbing valuable life lessons. Sulochana has graced many a Kiddies' Camp in the past and has devoted fans amongst the regulars at the Camp.

No child will go home empty handed after a Kiddies' Camp. Many prizes are up for grabs by winners of competitions as well as by the rest of the participants.

A particularly looked-forward-to gift is the Tomahawk bicycle that will be gifted to one child. Children at the Camp range in age from three to twelve, so a display of bicycles is available from which the winner may choose one that fits his or her size.

With all the activity taking place, children work up quite the appetite. The buffet of child-friendly foods is just what is needed to fulfil their little tummies. It includes an unlimited supply of ice cream, which on tropical afternoons is favoured by both the children and their parents.

The Easter Kiddies' Camp will take place on April 24 (Sunday) from 3 pm to 6 pm at the Waterside.
