Three To See on 26 Mar: Chocolate Market, Chocolate Sensations, We’re Stuck!

And today’s ThisWeek-tipped, LDN-based events are…

Chocolate Market | Duke Of York Square | 26 Mar
Okay, so it’s Easter Sunday tomorrow, and so it’s only right and proper to have an entire day of tips dedicated to chocolate. Maybe. Because even if you are not a Christian, it’s a great way to justify eating a bucket of the sweet stuff, especially if you gave it up earlier in the year as part of some post-Christmas health drive. So, here’s a goodie, artisan type chocolatry (no, not a word) as well as the usual fine food market. See this page here for info.

Chocolate Sensations | Kew Gardens | 19 Mar-10 Apr
Or, you could head over to Kew for their season of chocolate related events to help entertain the kids (if you have them), and this might be the slightly healthier option, as you can book into an informative workshop and do an Easter trail and what have you, rather than just buying chocolate, going home and then eating it. Though to be fair, I suppose you could buy your artisan chocolate from the chocolate market to give to your loved ones, and not touch a morsel yourself. Anyway, I digress. See this page here for info on Kew’s Easter activities.

We’re Stuck! | Shoreditch Town Hall | 25 Mar-1 Apr (pictured)
Okay, so this doesn’t really have anything to do with chocolate. At all. However, like chocolate, it’s a tasty treat that will go down well with the kids. But, unlike chocolate, it will help them learn how to handle maths stuff. Don’t make the ridiculous mistake of think that means it will be boring, though – look: “Join us on a special tour into the heart of a top secret research institute, where cutting edge scientists need your help tackling some extremely tricky problems. But beware: there may be unexpected dangers”. Interactive, engaging, fun for 8-11 year olds. See the venue website here to book your tickets.
