Families are invited to three free family events at Eastgate in Basildon during the Easter school holidays.
The first two events will be tomorrow and Wednesday between 11am and 3pm.
There will be a pop-up farm, entertainment from Beatrix Potter characters and a spring craft workshop located on the mezzanine next to the famous Emett clock.
Eastgate shopping centre manager Ian Clark said: “There will be lots of fun activities for families at Eastgate during the school holidays. The farm is always popular and it’s a great way to entertain and educate the youngsters.
“We’re delighted to be hosting some new walkabout characters too.”
