Children's Workshop · In Planning

Craft, nature and community — for children aged 8 to 14.

At the heart of our plans: dependable, meaningful afternoons where children work with their hands, spend time outdoors and become part of a community. Especially for working parents — and expressly also for families on a tight budget.

The idea

Seasonal workshops spread across the year, centred on craft, movement and experiencing nature — from building a simple piece of play equipment to cooking together over the fire. No lecturing from the front, but doing, trying things out and sticking together. Children gain access to culture and community, parents gain a little breathing room.

How it could look

Three formats we're working on.

Spring & Summer

Outdoor Workshop

Carving, knots, simple building projects — and learning how to light a fire safely and put it out again.

Autumn

Storytelling and Craft Evenings

Old stories told with a critical eye for the sources, alongside hands-on craft: leather, wool, wood.

Winter

Cooking over the Fire

Preparing together, cooking outdoors, eating together — warmth in the literal sense.

All at concept stage — we're showing it so you know where things are headed.

Our promise to parents

No offering for children without a safeguarding concept.

  • Supervision only by suitable, appointed people — with a current Sonderprivatauszug (special Swiss criminal-record extract for work with minors).
  • A written safeguarding concept with a code of conduct and a named person of trust — before the first child arrives.
  • Clear safety rules around fire and tools, sober heads, fixed supervision ratios.
  • Photos of children only with the parents' written consent — and never without a reason.
  • The fee should exclude no child: we handle hardship cases without red tape.

Where things honestly stand

This offering is not yet bookable. We currently lack the partners and resources to run it dependably — and an offering for children has to be dependable. We build it up carefully and will only start once the safeguarding concept, supervision and spaces are in place.

Non-binding interest helps us plan: If you can picture the workshop for your child — or would like to take part as a partner, helper or host — get in touch. We keep a list of interested people and will let you know as soon as things become concrete.
