Go Wild and Get Inspired with Meridian!

Summer’s arrived — and Meridian Shopping Centre is unleashing a wild line-up of creativity, discovery, and family fun! 🌿

From 30th July to 27th August, every Wednesday between 11 am–3 pm, Meridian is transforming into a vibrant hub of nature-themed events: think interactive sessions, animal encounters, and hands-on crafts that bring the great outdoors indoors!

For book lovers and craft enthusiasts alike, it’s the perfect season to connect cherished stories with tactile creativity. Picture story time set against a backdrop of woodland whimsy, followed by crafting homemade binoculars, creating clay animal figurines, or weaving nature-inspired bookmarks. Whether you’re sharing a beloved tale or sparking imaginative play, Meridian’s “Go Wild” offers endless inspiration.

Discover 🎨 easy-to-follow crafts and book pairing inspired by each week’s theme from The Works and TGJones (formerly WHSmith)!

And spark wonder and curiosity in young explorers!
