Simon Kidgits Club's Back-To-School free event will feature various interactive activities for children and valuable offers for adults, all designed to help with the transitioning into academic routines a little easier. 

From creating a one-of-a-kind bug jar and garden stake to designing an imaginative epic scene and decorating notebooks with specially designed duct tape, Lehigh Valley Mall’s Back-To-School event is free and open to the public. Attendees will have the opportunity to receive a free mini “EPIC” poster (while supplies last) and enter to win a variety of exciting retailer prizes during the event.
