Five fun-filled things to do with the family this weekend

The weekend is just around the corner, so if you’re stuck for plans to entertain the kids, look no further. Make the most of the final few weeks of the school holidays, and treat the whole family to one of these fun-filled things to do.

Italian cooking class

Ricetta, the authentic Italian restaurant at Four Points by Sheraton Bur Dubai is holding children’s cooking classes, every Saturday until August 25, 2018.

Children between the ages 6-14 years are invited to don their chef hats and get first-hand experience of creating dishes in a fun-filled environment. Priced at AED 100 per child per class, kiddie chefs expand their culinary skills and showcase their talent while moms can enjoy a steaming cuppa coffee or tea with cookies.

The cooking classes will be conducted under the able supervision of Chef Prabin and his team. Each child will be guided by Chef Prabin to prepare their own mini-masterpieces and will go home with a hard-copy of their recipe and certificate.
