Now it’s the second week of winter holidays and we’ve got a proposal to make your time during these days more interesting. Join us at the winter day care for children at the Roma Community Center. We are opened daily between January 22 and 26 (Monday – Friday) from 12:00 – 16:00.
Agenda of the day care has been prepared in a way to make every day feel as new adventure for children. Such agenda includes carnival fashion show, instax photo session, detective games, dance party, learning Roma vocabulary and art therapy classes. For toddlers (3 – 5 years old) we offer coloring, pasting, puzzles, playing with blocks. There’s no fun when you’re hungry! That’s why we’ll prepare hot lunches for children at 2:00 pm, as well as healthy snacks during their stay at the day care. Parents will have access to coffee and tea.
Children aged 3 – 12 are invited to join in the fun (parents also welcome!).
Enrollment: Participation is free of charge. All you have to do is to sign up by sending an email to: biuro@fundacjawstronedialogu.pl with the subject line “The Day Care” or by calling 504 256 733 (you can send a text message as well).
