Our day
We are open the whole day from 7:30 AM to 5:30 PM. You can pick the length of attendance and days from one-half day to full-time.

Classes
DRAMATIC PLAY- Practicing dramatic play of children’s stories and fairytales is very popular. It supports imagination, communication, and social skills among children. We let children be creative and give them the opportunity to act out their feeling and make their own choices.
EXPERIMENTS- The lab is prepared for children older than 3,5 years. Each child has a child-friendly experiment opportunity; we practice probability, guessing of results and logical thinking.
THEATER- Every 6 weeks we are visiting the children’s theater close by Horní Počernice (children from 3 years old).
SCHOOL PREP- It is offered mainly for 5-7 years old children or younger if they are ready. We are using the Kuliferda program which thoroughly prepares the children for school.
BAKING – we learn so much about baking but also important skills like waiting for your turn and patience.
SOKOL – we visit the local Sokol, children enjoy an hour of entertainment and at the same time develop in the movement area, learn to cooperate with others, how to build confidence and a sense of responsibility
And Something Extra…
ELEPHANT OLARE- We adopted an elephant orphan Olare from The David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust in Kenya. We are periodically receiving news about Olare’s life.
BIRTHDAY PARTIES- We are celebrating each child’s birthday together with a cake and a gift.
ADAPTATION PROGRAM- Come and stay with your child to help him/her get to know the new environment. This process is very individual and we do our best to provide a smooth and calm transition in this big change in child’s and parent’s lives
