Winter camps

Useful sojourns for a first experience away from the family as well as for children who are regular participants at the "house" - a reassuring link connecting one summer stay with the next.

Healthy psychophysical fresh air experience. Two winter options for continuing the adventure year-round.

Activities:

• Downhill Skiing
• Cross-country Skiing
• Broomball
• Snowboarding
• Orienteering
• Excursions
• Snowshoeing
• Tobogganing and mini-bobsleighing
• Ice Skating
• Building snow structures
• Finding and identifying animal tracks and when possible casting a mould of the track

Of course, all summer activities (those suitable to the season) are also part of the program, especially all expressive activities, role-playing games and social evenings.

During the Christmas session, on December 31st, we organize an outdoor role-playing game. All the children are in costume and in character according to a guiding "story" and specific roles. At night, there is a mini New Year's Eve party ending with a torchlight procession.

On the night of January 5th, the Befana comes down the chimney with stockings filled with goodies.

During Carnival we host costume parties with traditional folk dances.

If requested, a study period for homework with the assistance of specialized personnel is inserted into the overall program of the session at suitable moments.
