June is here and with it some good news — the end of the school year! Kids are most likely spending their time preparing for exams, but also eagerly anticipating the holidays to follow and welcoming the Holy Month of Ramadan. The best place to start planning for both these occasions is in the heart of Manama Souq — at the Yateem Centre. Having been around for more than 25 years and known as the “place to go to” for a variety of things, there is certainly something for everyone at Yateem Centre, in both their new and old shops. If you are travelling, the newly renovated Awal Stores is a must visit. One of Bahrain’s original luggage retailers, this shop has a range of briefcases for the busy executive, backpacks for the adventurous tourist, and matched ensembles for the fashionistas who simply have to have a bit of everything. The end of the school year suggests rewards for your high-performing, hard-working offspring. There’s a variety of games for kids to keep themselves occupied. Game Station has hours of entertainment in-store, whilst Gajria and Al Bin Humda Electronics stock all kinds of electronic goodies. Achievements can be rewarded with personally designed certificates from the newly expanded Immediate Printing services showroom, or by printing a graduation photo at Al Hassanen Digital Studio. For the more sportive, a visit to the Adidas Clearance Store or Olympia Sports is always an adventure, leaving you with tempting buys for your next activity. Once you are done with your shopping spree, do not forget to feed your inner child with the tasty treats of Jasmi’s, the spices of Saffron Suq and Al Osra, and the smoothies at Costa Coffee. If all fails, simply give a gift voucher to your special person, so they can choose for themselves. These are available in denominations of BD5, BD10 and BD25 from the Yateem Centre management office. i Call 17 215-615.
