*OBS ALL SPOTS HAVE BEEN FILLED*<\/p>\n

Free summer workshop for 7 – 10 years old<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The theme of this year’s Nordic House summer course is inspired by the house’s current exhibition entitled: Experiment \u2013 Eider & Farmer<\/em>. The exhibition is interdisciplinary and deals with the coexistence of eider ducks and humans.<\/p>\n

The children learn about this important bird as well the methods of using creative thinking while mixing design, art and nature perspectives. At the outdoor area of the Nordic House there is a bird sanctuary, where children will learn about birds during field trips and further the knowledge with drawing exercises. Specialists from the Reykjav\u00edk Botanical Gardens have prepared a special Organism search game based on the outdoor area. Through the organism search, the children learn about bird life, plants and the wetland in Vatnsm\u00fdri outdoor area. Participants also get to know the greenhouse of the Nordic House, where herbs and Icelandic vegetables are grown this summer.<\/p>\n

The concept of composting will be introduced in connection with the cycle of nature. The children’s library is responsible for the interactive children’s exhibition Life in space<\/em> and children will learn about planets, The Space Race<\/em> and the importance of nature on earth- through reading, play and crafts.<\/p>\n

The course can therefore expect a diverse use of materials and an unconventional approach to the subjects.<\/p>\n

Students are asked to bring a packed lunch daily and clothing suitable for Icelandic summer weather.<\/p>\n
