Suggested Educational Programs
On the trail of the legendary Captain Bandaga
Captain Bandaga has not lived for many years. However, his fame has not faded! It remains alive through the ages! After all, everyone knows that on his distant island, he has hidden his legendary treasure. What will happen when the old, worn-out map falls into the hands of our aspiring pirates? Will they manage to decipher the clues and live the adventure?
Activities of readiness and swiftness inspired by the magical pirate world! We play and test our endurance as well as our observance.
It's a hole that spins and makes us laugh!
A hole here, a hole there, a hole over there… If you think about it, holes are everywhere around us! Some big and some small, some black and white or colorful, maybe funny or scary, they drag us into unusual games. Have you ever considered how much training someone needs to become a great and grand hole-explorer?
Activities of observation, accuracy, and movement come together to create a different program inspired by holes.
We catch art, we let go in play
How does graffiti load balloons on our shoulders? Why do Dali's mustaches become a game? Works and painters come to fill our celebration with play.
Activities: Movement, observation, memory, and creation games inspired by famous works of art.
For him they were labors, for us... child's play!
We join forces and with speed, intelligence, courage, and daring, we follow in the footsteps of Hercules, the most famous hero of all time. Olympus awaits us!
Activities: Games with movement, action, and thought inspired by the labors of Hercules.
Chasing the dragon
Alarm at the palace! A terrible dragon has taken over the water source. Aspiring knights and daring princesses take on the task of driving the dragon away...
Activities: Challenges such as balance, agility, accuracy, as well as puzzles help us to drive the dragon away!
Kids in action
Olympic sports in every way! We discover, experiment, and laugh! We celebrate our friends' birthdays by participating in the sports of yesterday and today. Our physical abilities will be tested, but mainly our endurance in laughter.
