It’s chilly in LA this week, and the forecast calls for even more cool weather next week. That can only mean one thing: time to go out and enjoy it! If you’re looking for something to get your hands (or your kids’ hands) into, there’s so much in store, and you can find a few special events right here for your convenience.
Play-Doh Pop-Up at Westfield Century City
We meant it when we said, “Something to get your hands or your kids’ hands into.” This coming Sunday, November 6th, the beloved childhood brand, Play-Doh, is celebrating the release of their newest competition show: Play-Doh Squished at Westfield Century City!
Families are invited to join the brand for an afternoon filled with themed interactive Play-Doh stations, photo booths, treats, and a live display with master Play-Doh builder Jason Loik. It’s the ultimate Play-Doh paradise that kids of previous generations could only dream of — so why not get your hands dirty, too?
The show, hosted by Sarah Hyland, features three teams of fun-loving adults and kids going toe-to-toe in ultimate Play-Doh competitions. In the end, only one team will win a grand prize, while the other teams’ creations will get SQUISHED! Dust off those old Play-doh creativity skills!
Date: Sunday, November 6th
Time: 2:30 PM – 5:30 PM PST
Location: The Atrium at Westfield Century City (Level 1, near Lululemon and Tesla)
