The Mini Metro Lunch Clubs are being offered as a series of events from the Canada-based grocer to help parents enjoy a beneficial experience for their little ones to take part in. The events are taking place in designated community parks across Ontario during the summer, and are perfect for children aged two to eight to partake in. Each of the sessions will feature a qualified child care staff on site and will offer a variety of activities that are custom-tailored to the specific age groups.
Head of Marketing Mathieu Robitaille spoke on the Mini Metro Lunch Clubs saying, "As a community grocer, Metro recognizes alone time is in short supply for parents, especially during the summer months. For parents, grocery shopping alone can be a treat, but many don’t have the opportunity. By hosting these sessions, we aim to take the stress out of shopping and provide some fun for the whole family."
