Did you ever have a book or series that you completely got into? You couldn’t put the book down, you immersed yourself in the book World and the characters became like friends? I loved doing this as a child. Heck, I still do this today. One of the first series I really enjoyed was Nancy Drew. There was just something about the mystery and adventure that I could lose myself in. And after every great adventure, I’m sure Nancy Drew wouldn’t have minded a filling meal at a buffet!
Each Thursday, from April 20th through May 25th between 5 pm and 8 pm, kids can participate in different interactive and educational activities in Ovation Brands’ restaurants and Furr’s Fresh Buffet locations. Nancy Drew: Codes & Clues encourages STEAM education and kids will be able to participate in activities featuring mystery, science, coding and sleuthing every Thursday night during the promotional period.
