Most Friday nights, there’s a kids night out program offered at Colour Me Mine stores (find local stores, here). This Kids Night Out includes a couple of slices of pizza, a drink, a movie and one of the small pieces of pottery to paint, from the bottom shelf – included in price, but you can upgrade for an additional cost.
For the cost of $35, it’s an easy kids night out that starts at 5:30pm and goes straight until 8pm for children aged 4+.
To register: call the local store and get on the list, you can pay when you get there – either, before or after the session.
At the local Kids Night Out we tried, my daughter mentioned that there was not an excessive amount of guidance or interaction from the leader, and she was there alone, while another group of girls came together.
The next time around, I think the experience would be improved if she were to go with a friend, and have someone that she knew to eat with, watch the movie with, and paint the small piece of pottery with.
A week later, we picked up the small bank that she painted at the night-out, and she asked to go back. You can find the local calendar with themed activities, on the Colour Me Mine website.
You will find the Edmonton location at West Edmonton Mall. You can find the additional information, full address and studio address, here.
