PLAYFUL, LIVELY AND INTUITIVE WORKSHOPS
FOR CHILDREN AND FAMILIES
>AN INCENTIVE TO TAKE TIME, TO FEEL, TO CREATE.
FOR AN EDUCATION AT THE SERVICE OF LIFE!
CasaVerde Asbl offers regular workshops, holiday courses, themed days and tailor-made events (e.g. birthdays, school visits).
Our activities are part of a sensory approach to environmental education via the following themes: Awakening to nature – Forest school – Language immersion (FR- NL-EN) – Art and nature – Music – Spontaneous painting.
Our privileged spaces are :
– at the HakunaMatata animation farm in Merchtem, in the countryside, 10 minutes from the northern ring of Brussels,
– in the Forêt de Soignes in Brussels.
PAINT PLAY – DE SCHUUR
In this safe space you gain self-confidence. We play at painting, gradually freeing ourselves from the need to please and to meet expectations or objectives. We let our personal mark show itself while being among others. A moment of pleasure to live for oneself, with others, regardless of age.
« Painting as an art is the realm of artists, Paint Play belongs to everyone else » Arno Stern

des bois
Copains des Bois is a sensory approach to connecting with nature, an experience to be lived during meetings, rituals and “forest school” groups.

Testimonials
Hautement recommandé ! Un camp où les enfants peuvent vraiment se salir, apprendre quelque chose de nouveau et en même temps jouer dehors. Magnifique dans sa simplicité.
Super stages! Cécile, die ze begeleidt en organiseert, is lief, creatief en origineel (net zoals haar kampjes) en de kinderen krijgen er een introductie tot Frans bij. Een fijne mix van activiteiten! Warm aanbevolen.”
Ze hebben een superweek achter de rug! Zeer professioneel georganiseerd! Persoonlijke aanpak. Duidelijke visie. Op een fijne manier Frans geleerd! Dank u!!!!!”
Een aanrader! Puur en kleinschalig kampje met focus op muziek, natuur en de franse taal. Kampje waar kinderen zich nog eens écht vuil mogen maken, iets bijleren en tegelijk heerlijk kunnen buiten spelen. Prachtig in z’n eenvoud
