CHRISTMAS ACTIVITIES FOR CHILDREN AT THE MUSEUM

This Christmas children can have fun while exercising their mind, by participating in the holiday children's workshops at the Museum Herakleidon in Athens, Greece:

"CHRISTMAS SYMMETRIES"
Sunday, December 11, 11:30 - 13:30
Mosaic workshop with Sophia Boudoura, for elementary school children: the intellectual and emotional value of mosaics for the practitioner of this ancient art is incontestable. On the one hand the children will work with natural materials such as stone, marble, earth, glass, etc. and on the other they will cultivate their powers of observation and concentration, their patience and their aesthetic sense. The patterns on which they will work combine the holiday spirit of Christmas with the secret geometry of art and of nature.
Participation fee: 20 € (fee includes materials)

"CHRISTMAS PRANKS"
Sunday, December 11, 11:30 - 13:30
Live storytelling in parallel with the creation of comics for children aged 7 to 12: the elves escape through the storytelling of Vasilia Vaxevani and come to life thanks to the pen of Michalis Dialinas. An original storytelling performance of myths, legends and tales about elves and other make-believe creatures from all over the world, together with the creation of comics. As the storyteller tells the children about the elves' pranks, she invites them to participate in the narration and the pranks, while the illustrator gives the creatures form in front of the children's eyes.
Participation fee: 20 €
