Games, face-painting and the occasional giant bunny all helped to turn what would otherwise have been a normal Saturday shopping trip into a fun outing.
Meanwhile the fundraising side of things was a success, with more than £600 collected for Strathcarron Hospice.
A spokesperson for the Howgate said: “We would like to thank Michael from Maleys Chocolates and all the other staff who helped make this a fun day for all the family”.
The Chick Hunt winner has been named as Lesley Chinnock, who wins a £20 gift card.
Happy Easter!
