7 thematic camps for those over twenty

Polina Kalmykova

found a portal to childhood

Author profile

disco – that’s all the entertainment. Now I remember them with warmth and nostalgia: every shift was full of adventures and new friends, and the daily routine now seems almost perfect.

Even those over twenty can get into the camp: you just need to buy a ticket for one of the adult shifts. This article contains 7 camps that organize such trips. Keep it if you still remember the squad chants and secretly dream of visiting the morning line again. 9Ol000

Tour operator “Plus” works with children’s programs: holds sports and creative shifts in Sochi and Sheregesh. One of these programs, City of Heroes, was adapted by the organizers for adults. Participants from 40 to 65 years old are invited to change, but the main entertainment remains the same: vacationers learn to shoot from a bow, play quizzes and quizzes, attend master classes, watch movies in the open air and sing with a guitar in the evenings.

The daily routine is reminiscent of pioneer camps from childhood: the morning begins with exercises and a ruler, during the day the participants attend events as part of their squad, and in the evening they gather for an “evening light” and a cultural program. The shift will last only six days, but if the entertainment gets boring, you can sign up for additional excursions and go to the Black Sea coast.

/list/not-turkey-but-also-not-bad/

Where to have a good rest instead of Turkey

The cost of the trip includes five meals a day – with an afternoon tea and a second dinner – and accommodation in a double room with a shared bathroom per block. For an additional fee, you can move to a single room or a standard hotel room, as well as order a transfer or get to the camp by taxi on your own.

More Amore Camp

Briefly: camp with yoga, Instagram types and capabilities for non -wrapping
How much it costs: from 67 500 R
Where is: on Altai
Details: on the Official website

More Amore Camp holds thematic shifts for everyone: there are separate programs for teenagers from 12 years old, adults from 18 years old and families with children. Children’s trips usually take place in Sheregesh, and adults are invited to Altai – to a creative session dedicated to self-realization, or a photo tour of the most impressive places in the region.

Participants live in glampings – in domed houses, tents and tents overlooking mountains and rivers, two to three people in each room. The daily routine depends on the program, but there will be little free time: every day, participants do yoga, participate in psychological trainings and game practices, prepare creative projects in teams, and arrange photo shoots during sightseeing trips. The evening ends with campfire gatherings with songs, dancing, a movie theater and anything else that the participants want, from night swimming to jumping over the fire.

All events are carried out by professional curators: a director, a photographer, a KVN officer and an organizer of festivals, so on a shift you will not only be able to change the situation, but also learn something new.

Most Creative Camp

Briefly: Learn to think not according to the template
How much it costs: from 28 000 p
where it takes place: in creative estates of Russia and Georgia
Details: on the official website

MOST CREATIVE Camp are outdoor camps for the development of creativity. The programs are designed only for adult participants, but the type of occupation does not matter: shifts will be useful not only for representatives of creative specialties.

Most Creative Camp does not have a ready list of trips. The organizers come up with new topics every time and hold shifts at different creative estates: for example, the design camp was held at the Chekhov #APi scientific and creative residence in the Moscow region, and storytelling was studied at the Garikula art villa in Georgia. The cost of the program and the duration of the trip are also unknown in advance: some shifts take only a couple of days, while others take a whole week.

Shifts are held in the format of intensive training – lectures alternate with brainstorms, participants work on assignments and conduct research on field trips to the city. There is also entertainment: in the evenings, the organizers arrange parties, and trips to Georgia are not complete without traditional feasts.

From time to time, the creators of the camp hold an online marathon on Telegram to develop creativity. The course lasts a week, during which you will have to devote about an hour a day to classes. The chatbot will send new training videos and tasks that need to be completed immediately: participants who miss the deadline will be removed from the group. The marathon costs 4500 R – you can first test training with the camp team in this format, and then decide to leave with a full immersion.

“Mayak”-another educational adult camp. The shifts are devoted to various aspects of acting: for example, improvisation, public speaking, or TED-style speaking.

Off-site programs usually take place on weekends in the Moscow region – you don’t need to take a vacation or ask for time off from work to join a shift. Although most of the time in the camp is occupied with training, rest is also included in the program: participants do yoga, go to the bathhouse, walk around the neighborhood, listen to music and play.

The cost of the trip includes everything: accommodation in double rooms, three meals a day and transfer from Moscow and back. So you will need money with you only for souvenirs.

DACAMP

Brief: Conceptual trips in the format of the children’s camp
How much it costs: from 13 333 p
where: in the Far East
Details: on the Official website

DACAMP. children’s camps and recreation centers in the Far East, primarily in the Khabarovsk Territory. Each shift has a conceptual name, such as “Pause”, “Youth Theater” or “Cousteau”, but how it will be connected with the program is not known in advance: the organizers keep the exact list of events a secret.

There are several principles that are observed at the exits. The shift should be full of various activities so that everyone finds something to their liking, but at the same time there are no mandatory classes. There is also no clear schedule in the camp: everything starts when it starts and ends when it ends. Also, no alcohol.

In addition to open trips for everyone, the camp holds special shifts for business – with master classes from professional managers and joint events with other entrepreneurs, where you can get to know each other and share experiences. The exact program is kept secret in the same way as on regular trips: these are the rules.

Happy CAMP

Briefly: non -alcoholic shifts with a saturated program
How much it costs: from 13,800 r
Where it takes place: in the suburbs and Crimea
Details: on the official site

Each Happy CAMP exit Happy CAMP. some concept. For example, the Mozhno change invites guests to change their mindset from “should” to “can” for at least a few days, and the Heroes change is built around the idea of ​​Joseph Campbell’s monomyth.

What classes will be included in the thematic program of the shift, the organizers do not report, but the participants can find out the approximate daily schedule in advance: in the mornings, guests will definitely have a charge, and in the evening – discos, games and theme parties. Alcohol is strictly prohibited in the camp: instead, before going to bed, they will offer a glass of kefir, as in childhood.

The cost of the voucher includes only entertainment – accommodation, meals and travel to the camp will need to be paid separately.

Details: on the official website

All the main camp affairs fit in a four-day shift: from checking for lice to tears of parting

“Prodlenka” is the newest camp in the entire selection, the first shift will take place only in September 2021. The organizers promise to recreate children’s impressions of visiting the camp with all the details: living in “girls” and “boys” wards, counselors who must be obeyed, camp questionnaires, bonfires and amateur concerts.

They promise to turn a blind eye to rule violations. The main rule is “don’t get burned”, otherwise everything is possible: drinking beer in the bushes before the disco, smoking through the window and kissing secretly from the counselors. Those who get caught will not be sent home, but violations will be reflected in the rating of the squad.

    Were with my son for career counseling. They were very satisfied. Everything is clear, professional and to the point! We received a lot of useful information to prepare for the exam. We will definitely be back at the start of the school year!

    A convenient platform for thorough preparation for exams, all convenient types of information provided, such as: face-to-face classes with teachers, extensive and eye-catching theory, a practical part is provided for each lesson, videos are also provided for each topic, where teachers explain everything in an accessible way language.

    The child underwent express training (3.5 months) in this center in mathematics and Russian and, as my son said, “how much I learned about the Russian language!” I must say that the Russian language was his “Achilles heel” for all 11 years))), and largely thanks to the teacher of the center, he passed the exam at ..87 !!!! (We hoped for at least 78-80, but here 87!) I passed mathematics with 80, to be honest, considering that mathematics is his favorite subject, I expected more))), but that is, that is . .. In any case, thank you very much to the teachers of the center for their help in preparing our children! You are doing a great job and we appreciate it! Good luck! Sincerely, Elena!

    I went with my granddaughter to a lecture (or a master class) on preparation for the OGE. I learned a lot for myself, changed my attitude to whether to continue studying in grades 10-11 or go to college. The granddaughter was also interested. I hope we will join their process of preparing for the OGE. The employees of the organization are young people who think in a very peculiar way. They made a positive impression on me.

    I liked the testing of the child to choose a profession. Checking the level of knowledge and preparation for the OGE and the USE. The center offers assistance in preparing for exams. So far I haven’t used it.

    I study online, as there is no way to go to face-to-face classes. I have been studying since the end of September in mini-groups with Danila Safronov in social studies and Dasha Pavlichenko in history – excellent teachers who convey information in an interesting and, most importantly, understandable way. As a person who did not know the history of the word “completely” – I wrote a simulation in January with 88 points and I think that this is a worthy result. Thank you so much for being such great teachers!

    An educational exhibition was held in Moscow last weekend. I am a parent of a high school student, the child is finishing 8th grade. As a result of the whole day spent at the exhibition, clear answers were received to questions on the structure of the Unified State Examination and the Unified State Examination, myths and rumors were dispelled, and conclusions were drawn. I liked the friendly and close-knit team of teachers, lecturers and employees of MAXIMUM Education, their responsiveness and willingness to help any listener. Based on the results of the exhibition, the vector of movement towards passing the OGE was structured, career guidance was completed, prospects were clarified, “step by step” in the preparation of the student. Thank you for the invitation and organization. Personally, for me and my child, the exhibition turned out to be extremely popular and necessary. The result of a fruitful day was our victory in the drawing of the Yandex Alice column.

The Detsad.Firmika.ru portal contains addresses and phone numbers of kindergartens and development centers in Rostov-on-Don. We suggest finding a kindergarten in your area or near a suitable metro station. Easy-to-compare tables show the cost of part-day gardening and extras, so you can easily compare prices across centres. Of particular interest are the reviews about the institutions of Rostov-on-Don, left by visitors to the portal. We carefully monitor their accuracy, trying to publish only comments from real customers. nine0003

How to choose a part-time kindergarten for your child?

Part-time group in kindergarten is an outlet for parents who are not ready to leave their child for the whole day. The visiting schedule may be different, for example, from 7-8 in the morning until lunch. How much does a private part-time kindergarten cost in Rostov-on-Don, and what parameters should be taken into account when choosing?

Requirements for a part-time kindergarten

Not all kindergartens have a free schedule where you can leave early or miss a day without a good reason. In part-time private kindergartens, parents can write an application, indicating in it what schedule the child will go to. Certificates from a doctor are not required for passes. Most often, a part-time day is organized for children under 5 years old, in older groups, mostly a full stay. nine0003

There are several criteria to consider when choosing an institution:

  • Qualifications of caregivers. Empathy, goodwill and stress resistance are the essential qualities of a good teacher. Before taking the baby to kindergarten, get to know the teachers, talk, determine whether your ideas about raising children match.
  • Day mode. Unlike a full day garden, a part-time visit means that all the main activities and games will be held before lunch, and after lunch the children can be picked up at any time. nine0035
  • Delicious and wholesome food. Part-time usually means 4 meals a day: breakfast, lunch, lunch and afternoon tea. Some children are picked up immediately after lunch. In order for the baby not to be capricious and eat well, the food should be varied, tasty. If there is a food allergy, it must be said about it, he should be offered a menu without allergenic products.
  • Development program. So that the baby does not miss home, the garden should be interesting. Good teachers can organize joint drawing, modeling, staging a play or dance. They read books to children aloud, watch educational cartoons and discuss them. nine0035
  • Leisure. There are kindergartens where in the morning with a child they can go to the zoo or circus, to the dolphinarium, to the cinema. Such an entertainment program is usually paid separately, it is often offered on weekends so that the baby is happy and the parents can go about their business.

The cost of a part-time kindergarten is calculated monthly or hourly, the price per hour is from 120 to 1500 rubles. For those days when the child did not attend the group, you usually do not need to pay. nine0003

From the parents’ feedback, you can learn a lot of useful information about how children get used to kindergarten with part-time and then go full-time, how they adapt to their peers, where excellent teachers work, and where it is simply dangerous to send a child. Read the reviews and share your opinion after visiting the kindergarten!

Etiquette

The people of Athens are open, friendly and outgoing people. Here they like to talk and emotionally gesticulate during the conversation. To avoid trouble, you should know which gestures should not be used when communicating with the Greeks:

  • throwing your head up (while looking at the sky or at the ceiling), means “no”;
  • greeting wave of the hand when meeting a friend at a great distance (open palm with open fingers) – here it symbolizes extreme indignation;
  • holding up two fingers, as if you want to order two coffees in a cafe, is considered an insult;
  • the common “OK” sign (thumb and forefinger joined) is a hint of vulgarity and homosexuality;
  • the outstretched hand is called “munza” and symbolizes extreme irritability – this is a rude insult, the equivalent of the middle finger;
  • tapping oneself lightly on the forehead means “you said something stupid”;
  • a raised thumb tells the interlocutor a sharp “shut up”.

Tourists should be aware that from 15:00 to 17:00 in the whole country is the afternoon rest time. During this period, do not disturb friends with calls and excessive attention. Stores are closing, and their employees often take a nap right in the workplace.

In Athens, there is a cult of respect for elders, emphasized politeness and hospitality. When meeting here, it is customary to kiss each other on the cheek, but Western handshakes are used much less frequently.

Holidays in Athens © frantic00 / Shutterstock

After a short but pleasant acquaintance, the locals may invite you to dinner. On a visit, you should definitely go with a present – be it a bottle of wine, dessert or flowers. It is not customary to take off your shoes in the house, as a rule, the flooring is tiles, which the housewives rub to a shine. Be sure to pay attention to the elderly relatives of the owners, as well as children. During dinner, you need to try all the dishes, and after a toast to a dear guest, be sure to make a mutual toast. Before leaving, you must thank for a pleasant evening and be sure to make a return invitation to visit or to a cafe, where the invitee fully pays the bill.

Locals consider name day to be perhaps the most significant holiday, even more important than a birthday. At the same time, you can not give a gift, but congratulations and wish the best is a must.

When talking to locals, don’t mention Turkey, don’t order Turkish coffee in cafes, and avoid talking about politics. Do not criticize Greece, on the contrary, emphasize the merits of the country.

In cafes and restaurants, it is customary to leave a tip of about 10% of the bill, despite the fact that it may include service. Tips are often the main income of waiters. It is also worth leaving a few euros in the hotel and in the taxi.

Internet access

In Athens, it is easy to connect to free Wi-Fi hotspots. They are installed by the city municipality in the most visited places in the city and their list is constantly expanding. Wireless network is available in the squares: Victoria, Thission and Syntagma, Irun (in Psiri), Kotsia (near Omonia), Karamanu (next to Psiri), as well as in Lycabettus Hill, the Serafeio Sports and Public Complex, the Municipal Library of Athens (at Domokou 2 ), the cultural center of Athens (at Academies 50), at the 1st Cemetery of Athens, Liosion Street 22.

Security

In general, Athens is a safe city. At the same time, here, as in other tourist places, you should be wary of pickpockets and scammers. Therefore, do not leave mobile phones and other valuables on the table in cafes and restaurants – criminals come up with a map, supposedly ask for directions and take everything that is on the table. Documents should be kept in a hotel safe, and only copies of them should be taken with you, and not to attract the attention of criminals with expensive jewelry and other things.

Keep your handbags and backpacks in front of you in crowded places, sightseeing trips and sightseeing tours. In addition, tourists should avoid evening and night walks in the areas of Omonia, Exarchia, Monastiraki, Syntagma and Patissia.

When visiting Athens, keep in mind that the tap water here is considered drinkable. However, if you leave the city limits, it is better to buy bottled.

Discount cards

Getting to know Athens will be much more comfortable and enjoyable if you purchase discount cards.

Phones and SIM cards

There are three providers in Greece: Cosmote, Vodafone and Wind. While they all offer the same packages, Cosmote has slightly better coverage. A SIM card can be purchased, topped up and activated in company stores, as well as from official dealers. To do this, you must present a passport or other valid document. At Athens International Airport Eleftherios Venizelos (ATH), you can buy a Vodafone card at SIM LOCAL kiosks. They are located at the “Arrival Level” and in the “Baggage Claim Area”.

Toilets

There are few public toilets in the Greek capital and most often they are paid – their cost is 50 cents. They are available in restaurants and cafes, museums and shopping centers, as well as at Omonia and Syntagma metro stations. When visiting the Acropolis, keep in mind that the latrines are located at both main entrances and on top of the cliff.

In the public toilets of Athens, toilet paper must not be flushed – it must be thrown into a special bin next to the toilet. The fact is that in Greece the diameter of sewer pipes is several times smaller than in the USA and Europe, so they easily clog.

Smoking, alcohol

Greece is one of the most smoking countries in Europe, despite the fact that there are strict restrictions. Smoking in Athens is prohibited in all public places and indoor areas, including transport stations, taxis, passenger ships, restaurants, nightclubs and recreation areas, fenced on at least two sides. There are specially designated smoking areas at Athens Airport, which are equipped with separate ventilation systems and air filters. The smoking ban does not apply to the beaches, so there are a lot of smokers here.

Tourists should be aware that drinking alcohol in public places and on the street is illegal. Alcohol is sold in specialized stores and supermarkets – it can be purchased by persons over 18 years of age.

Money, currency exchange

In Athens, as in all of Greece, since 2001 the national currency is the euro (EUR). One euro is equal to 100 cents.

Currency exchange in Athens can be done at banks, exchange offices and hotels. Banks are usually open from Monday to Thursday from 08:00 to 14:00 and on Friday from 08:00 to 14:30. Most of them change the currency at the daily rate set by the government. Often it is more profitable than in unofficial exchange offices.

Cash can be withdrawn from ATMs, some of which are open 24/7.

Payment for goods and services in Athens is made both in cash and by bank cards. It accepts Travelers Checks, Visa, American Express, Diner’s Club cards. However, markets, small family shops and taverns may not accept credit card payments.

Parking lots

In Athens, as in all major cities, there are difficulties with parking. It is especially difficult to find a place for a car in the center of the Greek capital.

There are special markings for parking in Athens:

  • blue – paid parking;
  • yellow – parking for commercial, police or government vehicles;
  • white – free parking.

At the same time, “white” parking is free only at certain times: from Monday to Friday – from 21:00 to 08:00, on Saturday – from 16:00 to 08:00 and on Sunday – around the clock.

Many car parks do not charge overnight or public holidays. Free periods are displayed on the panel under the sign.

Streets of Athens © Kirk Fisher / Shutterstock

You can pay for parking only with a special ticket – it is sold in newsstands, shops and cafes. The ticket is inserted into the parking meter and the time for which they plan to leave the car is entered. The receipt received for payment must be placed on the dashboard so that it is clearly visible to the inspectors.

Athens has surface parking lots, underground garages and incentive parking (Park & ​​Ride).

Ground – limited in time (3 hours) and have their own special markings:

  • blue – for local residents living in the area;
  • yellow – commercial use only;
  • white – for guests of the city.

In the center of Athens, close to attractions, seaports and shopping malls, there are multi-storey underground garages. Parking here helps a special employee – he will indicate the free space. The payment takes place through a payment terminal that accepts cash and gives change.

In addition, large parks and other attractions have their own guarded parking lots where you can leave your car.

For parking in the wrong place or for its overdue time, the police issue a fine – a receipt is inserted under the windshield wiper.

10 CRAZY Fun After School Activities (That Are Educational Too!) • The Pinning Mama

This post was created in partnership with Spin Master & Bunchems.  Although the post is sponsored by Bunchems, all the ideas, activities and recipes below are cooked up by me and my family!

These after school activities are super fun and shhhhh…. Don’t tell but they also all are very educational, helping your kids to develop real life writing, math, reading, science and spatial skills that will help them each day! The best part is they will be having so much fun they won’t even know they are learning!

With school starting up it seems like we are just finding our groove back into a good schedule.  It always takes us a few weeks to get our feet up under us, figure out what the new preferred after school snack is going to be (because you know it can’t be the same thing that used to be their favorite, of course.) Then we have to get back in the discipline of doing our homework and finding the place to fit in the chores and after school activities.

With everything on our plate, during the school year, I try really hard to make sure we still have enough fun activities to fit in.  Things that can let their little brains relax and have fun.  I keep a few things up my sleeve that are always a hit with our kids, I am excited to share with you today!

Even though these are our “fun activities” they are still packed with educational opportunities, they are just so fun that the kiddos don’t even realize how much they are learning!  Let me know if you have any other fun activities you keep in regular rotation at your house in the comments.  I would love to try them out with my kiddos!

1. Free Create

 

My kids LOVE to create!  Letting their little minds stretch from the constraints of all the rules they follow all day is so good for exercising their creativity and problem solving.  We do this in several ways.  They can be as simple as using what you have on hand to make something new, for example, you can give them a little bin of random materials, some scissors, and glue, and tell them to make a bird, a house, a bridge or another prompt and see what they can come up with.

To make creating even easier (and way less messy) we also keep other creative toys on hand like Bunchems.  Bunchems are colorful balls that magically bunch together and that allow you to create anything you can dream up!.  There are no scissors, heat or glue needed and you can make them into any shape by either free forming them, or by using the shapers included in the Bunch ‘n Build Activity Kit to get you started. When you are done pull them apart and play again!

Bunchems not only foster creativity and imagination in children, but are also simple for me to get out or have them clean up so it makes a perfect, quick and easy, after school activity. Both my boys and my daughter love to play with the Bunchems because they can make anything they can dream up, and each time they play they can make something new!

If you don’t have them yet, or you want one of the new Bunchems Bunch’n Build sets to help you make more creations using less Bunchems, head over to Target and grab a set!

2.

Sidewalk Chalk Pictionary

After spending all day inside and focus, it is great to spend some time outside after school.  One game we like to play is guess the picture with sidewalk chalk.

The game is simple.  Have a list of age appropriate words (write them on notecards or just make them up on the fly) and the person who is drawing picks a word, then try to get the other kids to guess the word by only drawing pictures.

This helps kids learn to think creatively in order to turn a word into a picture, and to think out of the box and think of ideas that will enable their team to guess the word.

A couple of variations on this game are playing in teams if you have enough kids, and using vocabulary or spelling words to help familiarity with the words in a fun way.  If the weather isn’t going to allow you to be outside, take it inside with a chalkboard, a dry erase board, or just some crayons and paper!

3. Make a treat!

My kids LOVE treats!  In fact I can generally get them excited about almost anything if I label it as a treat.   This after school activity pulls double duty by serving as something to eat, AND helping your kids with fundamental math skills, learning to follow instructions, and other scientific ideas, from solids and liquids, to chemistry!

One of our kids favorite things to make are these Quick & Easy Peanut Butter Energy Balls.  They require only a few simple ingredients, require no baking, and are super easy for even the smallest hands to help with.

Quick & Easy Peanut Butter Energy Balls

1 cup peanut butter

1 1/2 cup quick cooking oats

1/4 cup honey

1/2 cup chocolate chips

  1. Combine the peanut butter, oatmeal, and honey in a bowl and stir until well combined, then stir in the chocolate chips.
  2. Chill for 15 minutes.
  3. Roll tablespoonfuls of dough into balls and place in an airtight container.
  4. Chill for 30 minutes.

4. Take a Nature Walk

Get outside and go for a walk!  While you are out you can observe animals and insects or find leaves, rocks, other other fun finds to either bring back with you or take a picture of. Then when you get back to the house, try and see what you can find out about each, object, plant or animal.  Where does it live, what does it need to stay alive, is it native to your area, etc.

If your kids really like this activity, you can keep a notebook of their finds, observations, and research. It can be your kiddos first scientific notebook!

5. Random Acts of Kindness

Think about a friend, neighbor or family member that you might be able to help or brighten their day or  plan something  to help the community. 

Sometimes in a world where we focus so much on academics and athletics we can forget that kindness is one of the most important life lessons.

6. Practice Spelling Unconventionally

Spelling words is one of our most monotonous every day tasks.  Change up your standard routine by turning spelling practice into a fun after school activity.

Instead of just quizzing and repeating spelling words, have your child practice spelling by writing the word:

  • In a tray with shaving cream spread on it (or just put it straight on the counter!)
  • In the sand or dirt outside
  • In fun dough or clay
  • In a tray with salt covering it

There are many more ways around your kitchen, home, or outside you can get some spelling practice in without it seeming like such a chore!  Just get creative!

7.

Tell Stories

Have your child tell you a story and write it down for them.  Not only will they love getting to make up their own story, but they will doubly love the reward of your attention and getting to hear it back whenever they want.

If your child needs a little help getting started, give him a prompt like, “Tell me a story about a dragon that got lost trying to find his castle,” or  “Tell me a story about a princess who decided she wanted to be an astronaut.” Once they have a starting point they will surprise you with how creative they can be!

Story telling is great because it helps them learn to develop an idea, put a beginning middle and end to a story, and other important prewriting skills.  Even if your child can write, by taking the task of writing off of them it can often allow them to practice a greater depth of creativity.

8. Make an Upcycle Craft

Find something in the house that is old and make it over for a new use!  This could be turning a tissue holder into an organizer for legos, making a milk jug into a planter, or a limitless amount of things.

Talk about the earth and our resources and about how by reducing our waste we are able to help the earth and make our home a better place. Then stretch their creative thinking and and motor skills by crafting one object into another.

9. Make Slime

Along the same lines as making the peanut butter energy balls, you can follow recipes to make non edible fun too!

Grab a recipe for slime online or get a kit at the store, then follow the recipe to create something fun to play with.

You will learn the same basic math and chemistry skills making slime as we do following a recipe we eat!

10. Make a Comic Strip

If your kids are like mine, they are reading for 15-30+ minutes every day.  Reading is so important, but comprehension can be tricky.  One fun way to make sure our kids were really remembering what they were reading is by creating a comic strip after they finish a book, or chapter of a book.

A comic strip breaks down a story into a few frames that highlight major events. This challenges your kids to think about what they read, pull out the major details and place them in order so that they can retell the story.  It has been a really powerful way for them to show me they are remembering and understanding what they read and has proven especially handy with my kids that don’t love reading and writing as much.

I hope you found some new ideas to try out with your kids here today.  After school activities can be hard to balance with everything else you have going on, but when you have a few go to ideas up your sleeve it can make afternoons and evenings go much more smoothly!

If you have more fun after school activity ideas, make sure and leave me a comment below so I can try them out with my kids this fall!

This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Spin Master. The opinions and text are all mine.

Complex program “Special Garden 17+”

Systemic rehabilitation and habilitation for us is not only work using the most advanced approaches and their skillful combination, but also a sincere desire to become a real support for the family and a partner that remains close for life. We do not limit care and support to the period of growing up of the child, on the contrary, we are in favor of bringing the process of the colossal work of the family, the child and specialists to a result that would allow the child to become a happy adult, in demand and realized in the field of his unique abilities and talents.

The importance of getting a profession and fulfillment in it is undeniable and gives confidence and stability to every person, regardless of the characteristics of his development. If the child’s condition allows him to study in the system of post-secondary education, our task is to help remove barriers and restrictions in obtaining secondary and higher professional education. In the event that vocational education is not available due to the child’s condition, this does not mean that the quality of life and fulfillment of such a child in adulthood cannot be improved: we are always ready to work to improve communication and social skills, which will enhance the integration of a special adult into society and family.

We are engaged in a public campaign to promote vocational education among children with disabilities, and work individually with each adult child in terms of choosing a profession and career guidance.

In addition, our task at this stage is not only to help in choosing a profession and educational institution, but also to organize a comfortable environment for learning both at home and at the place of study, the implementation of individually oriented pedagogical, social, medical and legal assistance students, as well as assistance in organizing internships and employment of graduates.

The success of our work lies in the happiness and fulfillment of each child, in their feeling of support in the face of family and friends, inclusion in life, no matter how difficult it is accompanied.

All graduates of our programs become members of the Alumni Club, where you can always find support, understanding and a friendly shoulder.

Our center provides support throughout the adult life of a special child, the SPECIAL GARDEN 17+ Program provides a list of primary basic activities that do not limit our participation, additional ones are agreed individually based on needs.

The SPECIAL GARDEN 17+ program consists of the following blocks:

  • Consultation of an interdisciplinary team of specialists on the choice of a vocational educational institution and types of rehabilitation assistance
  • Organization of the educational environment in accordance with the special needs of the student
  • Sports development (improvement)
  • Rehabilitation plan and organization
  • Consultation on the use of alternative methods of communication and other modern achievements in the rehabilitation and habilitation processes
  • Psychological assistance
  • Legal aid
  • Employment assistance

Consultation of an interdisciplinary team of specialists on the choice of a vocational school and types of rehabilitation assistance

In accordance with the law, any institution of vocational education must ensure the admission of applicants with disabilities to any training program (if there are no professional restrictions). Moreover, applicants have benefits for admission to higher and secondary specialized educational institutions.

Parents of graduates usually face difficulties in professional self-determination of their child, search for an educational institution that provides training for professional activities. In this case, our project provides for the following forms of support:

  • Provision of a range of services related to professional orientation (testing professional inclinations, professional opportunities, drawing up an individual professiogram) and making recommendations for optimizing the post-school educational trajectory for the graduate;
  • Providing psycho-emotional support and targeted informational preparation for entrance exams;
  • Development of recommendations on the organization of the educational environment in accordance with the special educational needs of the student;
  • Provision of information support on issues of comprehensive support of post-secondary education for graduates with special needs;
  • Assistance in the selection of a qualified specialist (defectologist, tutor, speech therapist, psychologist, etc. ) to accompany the child in post-school education.

Organization of the educational environment in accordance with the special needs of the student

Our specialists will help to comfortably integrate the student into the educational process, as well as create a barrier-free environment, equip with special technical training aids.

As part of the program, our coordinator will conduct 2 on-site consultations at home and at a place of study for a teenager to adapt and create comfortable conditions.

Sports development (improvement)

We understand the important role played by sports development, as well as increasing social adaptation and physical rehabilitation for adolescents at all stages of life. Sports activities are an effective means of reducing the level of anxiety and increasing the level of achievement motivation.

Our team of specialists will prepare a sports program taking into account the anatomical-physiological and psychological-pedagogical characteristics of a teenager/adult. We offer classes in Pilates, support yoga, swimming, wheelchair dancing, modern sword fighting, tennis, etc. The plan of classes and sports areas is drawn up on an individual basis.

Plan of rehabilitation activities and their organization

Almost all types of rehabilitation activities remain relevant in adulthood in order to maintain the acquired skills. Often, as they grow older, active rehabilitation activities stop, and young people who have learned to walk get into wheelchairs, etc. Our task is to maintain and improve the results achieved during the earlier stages of rehabilitation, as well as to make the process of training varied, not boring with your routine.

In order to properly plan and organize classes, we conduct a consultation with an expert rehabilitation specialist, following which we present a lesson plan and organize them.

Consultation on the use of alternative methods of communication and other modern achievements in the rehabilitation and habilitation processes.

As a special child grows up, new developments of scientists appear, technical equipment is improved, which improves the quality of life of people with special needs. Our specialists are always up to date with the latest developments and novelties, and will advise on the possible implementation of them in the daily routine in order to improve the quality of life, self-service, mobility and communication.

Psychological assistance

The process of psychological support for adolescents with developmental disabilities is relevant and will always remain so, since the problems they face are so serious that they can become either difficult to overcome or insurmountable at all. Unfortunately, very often adolescents have low self-esteem, fears, an increased level of anxiety, self-doubt, which, in most cases, is the reason for the development of aggression in them both towards others and towards themselves. As a psychological correction, we offer individual consultations of a psychologist in order to create conditions conducive to successful adaptation, rehabilitation and personal growth in society.

Legal assistance

We provide comprehensive legal assistance in the implementation and protection of the rights of adolescents and adults with developmental disabilities.

Assistance in finding employment

Labor activity for a person is an important condition for a full life. It allows you to provide yourself economically, realize your professional and personal qualities and, most importantly, join social values. In our country, the state provides additional guarantees for people with disabilities.

We are ready to assist in further employment for graduates of educational institutions. Our consultations involve the joint activities of group curators, leaders in educational institutions working with students, responsible for career guidance assistance in finding employment and supporting the education of people with disabilities and people with developmental disabilities.

When carrying out activities related to employment, we help in matters of self-presentation, we undertake the organization of meetings with potential employers, as well as special graduates of educational organizations who have successfully found employment and lead a full-fledged lifestyle.

Since the list and intensity of necessary rehabilitation measures may vary in each case, we are ready to offer a flexible approach to their payment: it is possible to receive discounts on the services included in the program by making a one-time deposit.

Noe L.

“My son loves it here. This is pretty much his second home and he has no problem staying here at all. As a parent you want to have peace of mind where your child is going to be at when you are at work. And this place has been so good to my kiddos. They love their teachers and are very caring with kids. They go above and beyond. And when I miss my kid at work I can simply look at what he is doing. Amazing environment for the kids. Every person I have encountered til this day has been so nice. So if you are looking for a daycare I would recommend 100%.

Leina

“Our daughter has been here since she was 3 months. We love everything about this daycare! The staff and teachers have always been amazing!”

Darrell

“I have a two year old and 10 year old who have attended this facility for quite a while. I have had a few of those “kids will be kids” moments they have to learn from but the staff has been very attentive to my concerns. Teachers and management are great. Keep it up!”

Zara

“I absolutely ADMIRE this Kids R Kids location because of their staff/teachers. The two Mr Michaels are rockstars- always smiling and extremely helpful. They take pretty good care of your kids- you have to cut them some slack coz c’mon sometimes we can barely handle our own kids. But over all, the people working here are the true gems. Ms. Delores is an amazing teacher-she has been teacher of the year. My daughter learned a lot from her.”

Jessica

“Everyday he says something new to amaze me. He sings songs he learns in class, and the sign language! OMG! He knows quite a few signs and it just amazes me everytime I see him use them! I highly recommend this daycare! You will not regret it!”

Sweta

“I feel that for a child to grow we require good atmosphere, good facility with cleanliness and above all the great teachers not only to teach them but to ignite the thrust of learning process. I believe that Kids R Kids has the combination of above all. It has all the advanced as well traditional approaches to teach a kid”

Dawn

“My daughter knows three languages being English, Spanish and sign language. Sometimes I have to ask her to speak to me in English! Her knowledge as a four year old is really amazing. This is all because of teachers at KRK. The teachers and other staff at KRK really are our second family and I am not sure where we would be without them.”

    My family recently moved and we had to say goodbye to the wonderful teachers and staff. That was the hardest part of our move. My son started there at 18 months and now he’s 4. I truly believe everyone there loved him like their own and did everything they could to make everyday exciting. We transferred to his new VPK and his new teachers are amazed at how much he knows. I credit that to every person at Kids R Kids. We will never forget what you did for our little boy. We already miss everyone there

    We had a wonderful VPK experience. Charlotte, Quita, and all of the teachers assistant’s were fantastic. If I had a concern it was immediately addressed. The children come first and you can tell that they are well cared for. I was impressed at how much my daughter was taught. She is all set to start kindergarten thanks to Kids R Kds. We have two more children who will be attending when it’s their turn to start VPK.

    by Jeff Hansen

    Ana knows that today will be perfect. She’ll lead her baseball team to their first ever championship and then meet her new baby brother Louis. But when problems arise both on the field and in the hospital, Ana must figure out what perfect means to her. Can Grammie’s science lesson somehow inspire Ana to lead the Rascals to victory? And can the Rascals’ struggle against the stronger Skippers teach Ana about genes, genomes, and her brother Lou? With home runs and hugs and genetics and grapefruit, Ana teaches us the meaning of perfect.

    Montessori Childcare St. Louis

    The Montessori Method is an educational method and philosophy that recognizes children’s natural curiosity and desire to learn. Materials in a Montessori setting are more like tools for self-discovery and engaging with the world around them. Children will develop knowledge, skills, and friendships that will benefit them for the rest of their lives. Our childcare curriculum and activities build off of the Montessori Method’s 5 areas of learning, which include:

    • Practical Life
    • Sensorial
    • Language
    • Mathematics
    • Cultural

    We are passionate about teaching the Montessori Method in our classrooms, and we hope our knowledge and passion influence your children to become independent, creatively-minded individuals as they grow with us at our learning centers.

    The Montessori way of grouping children is based on developmental markers — by stage, not age. This ensures that lessons engage children and encourage good self-esteem. Typically, our children enter our rooms at the following:

    • Infant care – as young as 6 weeks old and up to about 8 months
    • Toddler care– around 8 months of age when they show signs of becoming mobile and up to about 36 months when they have only one nap per day, no longer use bottles, and are eating table foods
    • Montessori Preschool – ages 3-6

    From daytime activities to music and outdoor fun, you can be sure that your child will have plenty of interactive learning and playtime with other children. Our mission is devoted to providing an atmosphere focused on learning at every age, and setting up young children to be successful in their education for years to come.

    “The staff at Kinswood is remarkable! My child enjoys coming to school and learning. The staff always keeps in touch with how he is doing and truly care about my child.”

    Kinswood Parent

    “I have a 2 year old and a 4 year old going to Casa Dia Montessori and I couldn’t be happier. The facility is very clean, the food they serve is healthy, the teachers are top notch and my children love going to school there. No child care center’s rates are good, but they are extremely competitive for what their competition is. they are actually lower than any of their peers in the industry. Can’t say anything more than I wouldn’t go anywhere else.”

    Satisfied Parent

    “We love our experience at Casa! Miss Beth and Miss Jamie are awesome!”

    Kinswood Parent

    “As Christoph started his toddler adventures in his new classroom on Monday, I wanted to take a minute to express my sincere gratitude to Conway staff and teachers.Christoph has had such a great experience so far. I would like to thank you Ms. Jasmina, Ms. Sweeta, and Ms. Elma in the infant room. They were wonderful with Christoph and his transition from home to the day care setting. They definitely made “my transition” easier as well :-)I would also like to thank you Ms. Thenn, Ms. Afsheen, and Ms. Jelena in the transition room. They took good care of Christoph and always took the time to talk to my husband & I about Christoph and his development. As a first time parent, I also appreciated their tips and advice. Every morning, when dropping off Christoph, Ms. Thenn would give Christoph a hug and ask me if there was anything new to know. Also, I loved her personal detailed notes on Christoph’s report card. Christoph had such a good time in her class.These amazing ladies go above and beyond their day care duties and treat these kids like their own. I took comfort in knowing that Christoph was in good care and surrounded by love!I’m still amazed by the dedication and pride that these teachers show in their work. Thank you everyone!”

    Conway Parent

    “I wanted to send a quick note letting you know once again how we appreciate everything Conway has done for our girls! We can’t say enough good things about the care we’ve received in the last 3 years.I have been meaning to send an email letting you know how thankful we are for everyone who gives Madison and Elle the loving care they need! Since we won’t have another in the infant or Transition room, I wanted to give recognition to Ms Jasmina and Ms Thenn.As you all know, Ms. Jasmina is amazing and is by far the best infant teacher we could have asked for! Without her, the transition of going back to work would have been much more difficult, and we are thankful for that! Just knowing the love and care she was giving both of our babies really helped put me at ease! Sometimes I wish we could bring her home with us :)Ms Thenn was so wonderful with our girls and it was obvious all of the love and care she was giving them. Elle was always so happy to go to school in the morning and she learned so much in Ms Thenn’s class, so we feel so blessed to have had her as our lead teacher! She was always smiling in the morning and offering hugs and kisses to Elle and I know that made her feel welcomed, loved and safe. We are so appreciative of her!Ms Jelena was also always so bubbly and sweet, I was so happy on the days she was there in the classroom with Elle because I knew she was going to be loved.Of course we love our current teachers too – definitely don’t want to forget about them! I will send another email your way once we are finished with their current rooms. We would not have wanted it any other way and we are so appreciative for everything everyone does.”

Eight elevators go up to the observation deck at the highest point of the arch. You can also view the arch from the water on one of the many river cruises or by helicopter.

    Where to Stay in St.

    Louis for Sightseeing

    St. but for the first time, visitors who plan to do some sightseeing are best off finding accommodation right in the city centre. It is here that the Jefferson National Memorial Park and the Gateway Arch are located, as well as many other important attractions. Below are a few highly rated hotels in convenient locations:

    • Luxury Hotels : In the heart of the entertainment district, next to the Gateway arch, is the chic Four Seasons Hotel with a beautiful outdoor pool and patio overlooking the river and arch. One of the most unique hotels in St. Louis is the St. Louis Union Station, Doubletree by Hilton, housed in the stately old Union Station building dating back to 1894. The refined lobby of this hotel’s Grand Hall. Also in the city center is the Magnolia Boutique Hotel, decorated in a contemporary style. It offers standard rooms, suites and an extended stay program.
    • Mid-Range Hotels: Housed in three beautifully restored historic buildings and within walking distance of the Gateway Arch is the Drury Plaza Hotel in Ark. Attached to the convention center and close to many downtown attractions is the courtyard. Adjacent, but closer to the river and Gateway Arch, is the Embassy Suites by Hilton. This LEED-certified luxury hotel is perfect for families with two-room suites and a pool.

    Humane architecture | IND

    Architecture is becoming more and more human-oriented, says Amir Idiatulin, CEO and founder of IND architects architectural studio. This is especially important for social institutions – schools, hospitals, hospices, where architecture and design play a crucial role in creating a comfortable environment. Amir shared his vision and experience in designing such institutions in the Design Mate column.

    The primary task of architecture is to create a physical environment for people to live. But architecture quickly became an instrument of political and cultural expression. The palaces of the rulers and large-scale structures, like the Great Wall of China, solved not only utilitarian, but also political tasks. The architectural style of Soviet modernism, popular in the USSR, with the rise to power of Nikita Khrushchev before Perestroika, with monumental, angular buildings, sought to show the primacy of the socialist order, but was not strongly oriented towards the people living and working in such buildings.

    SOVIET KHRUSHCHEV

    The 20th century is the era of experiments in architecture, thanks to which it became clear that a person cannot be socialized – even in a happy society, everyone needs an individual and individualized space. And if you take it away, the person feels discomfort. This was clearly manifested in modernist architecture: a symbol of the depressive atmosphere of the dormant Soviet districts is monotonous high-rise buildings with empty spaces between them. Contrary to the plan, such a scale did not unite the inhabitants, but divided them. Another illustrative example, but not in the USSR, but in the USA, is at 19In the 1950s, the Pruitt-Igoe residential complex was built in St. Louis, consisting of 33 monotonous high-rise buildings. The middle class, for which the residential complex was built, quickly fled from it, and the microdistrict turned into a ghetto and was demolished in 1972.

    PRUITT-IGOW RESIDENTIAL COMPLEX, ST. LOUIS, USA

    Today it is clear that architecture affects every person – their health, emotions, productivity. Winston Churchill said: “First we create a house, and then the house creates us.”

    More and more architects are becoming committed to the idea of ​​humane cities that develop human potential. Thus, among the winners of international competitions, a growing number of projects with biophilia – the integration of vegetation, which reduces stress levels, into architecture – greenery covers the walls, fills the terraces and roofs of buildings. The urgent need for such architecture manifested itself during the pandemic, when people were locked in apartments – proximity to parks and squares, balconies where you can walk or arrange a winter garden gained value.

    Schools

    Taking care of physical and mental health is important when working on socially significant facilities – schools, hospitals, hospices. A good school project is individual, designed with reference to the place. In the school project in Burabay (Kazakhstan), we turned the building around so that the windows offer a view of the park, green vegetation, and the atrium faces north and does not overheat in the sun. Last year we renovated a school in Ozersk. Among other things, we have replaced and diversified the façade by covering the Soviet brick wall with ornate red-painted metal panels. Monotonous facades cause stress in people, and facades with a complex texture, on the contrary, have a positive effect. Non-standard facade solutions – each facade is individual – we also applied at the Golden Section school.

    Atriums and amphitheaters in schools allow you to diversify the space, make it flexible and interesting for students. In the amphitheater you can relax during breaks, hold school holidays or classes. It is important, especially for elementary school students, that the space is comfortable and understandable. Large spaces, like atriums, where all the corridors lead to, just help in navigation.

    Hospices

    There is a practice in the world and Russia when palliative medical institutions are moved away from public life – the Valaam House of Disabled People is notorious, where after the Great Patriotic War brought veterans with serious injuries. Such institutions should be built in the center so that guests have access to infrastructure and feel part of city life.

    IND architects redeveloped the building for the children’s hospice “House with a lighthouse” in the center of Moscow, near the Novoslobodskaya metro station. We have created natural, comfortable and not reminiscent of a hospital environment for children.
