Parents of Scarborough, Maine, rejoice! The Winter Wonderland Kids Night Out is here to rescue your Saturday night, giving your kids an unforgettable evening of fun and creativity. Hosted at MePowered Pastries and The Salt Flat Dance Collaborative, this event promises a delightful mix of baking, dancing, and laughter for kids aged four and up. Meanwhile, you get a solid 2.5 hours of uninterrupted “me time.” It’s a win-win situation that might just become the highlight of your January!
What’s on the Menu? (Hint: It’s Not Just Cookies)
The evening starts at MePowered Pastries, a local favorite known for empowering young chefs to roll up their sleeves and create culinary masterpieces. Kids will dive straight into the world of winter-themed treats—think snowflake cookies, frosty cupcakes, or perhaps even penguin-shaped pastries! The best part? All materials are included in the ticket price. And if your child has food allergies or sensitivities, don’t worry—just leave a note at checkout, and the team will ensure everyone gets to bake something delicious and safe.
Imagine your little one proudly presenting their creations at the end of the night. Who knows? You might be raising the next great pastry chef!
Dance Moves to Melt the Ice
Once the baking fun wraps up (and the frosting is safely on the cookies instead of their faces), kids will head to The Salt Flat Dance Collaborative. This dance studio is all about building confidence and community through movement—and what better way to do that than with some cool winter dance moves?
This session is designed to keep kids active and entertained, from twirling like snowflakes to stomping like polar bears. Games will also be sprinkled in to ensure every child feels included and engaged. It’s not just about dancing; it’s about having fun while staying warm during Maine’s chilly winter evenings.
