Xmas break for the worldschoolers



We will take a christmas break and return to worldschooling activities after new years eve. Our family will be travelling to Poland so we will not have any more activities for this week. Both our organised ones and the ones we do.

If you want to participate in arts classes and family yoga classes after christmas please let me know. We will fit the activities in our schedule so it fits most. The class leaders need to know beforehand so sign up now rather than later. We have also the possibility to arrange classes for homeschoolers in math, czech and lego robotics if there is enough participants.

We do want worldschoolers to keep getting in touch with us so if you are in Prague and want to meet up with other worldschoolers let us know. We will be back on the 29th, so we can arrange something special if you are here :)


We went to Moninec, 70km south of Prague. Its a ski resort with easy runs for the beginners. Our kids tried skiing for the first time. They had two lessons. Not all resorts are open yet. Moninec have got their own snow machines. We will try the northern skiing places soon, and go for longer, probably 2-3 weeks. If enough people are interested we could get together and arrange a worldschooler skiing camp! (and get group prices)

Arts class, making a crazy memory game.

Homeschooling swimming - We will swim 1-2 times a week. Evenings work best for us and we will go when we go. The Sutka pool is really nice so this will be our regular pool. Homeschooling families are welcome to join - hopefully there will be some time to hang out but i think  we will mostly be chasing our kids. :) at 7. Sutka has easy parking and there are buses going there too from Kobylisy. It is clean, with a very good area for small kids, river, slides for kids and a bit scarier slides for the adults too! The vystaviste pool is good for learning to swim, it just has a simple lap pool, this one is good if someone wants to have a swimming circle with us for learning to swim during the day time we can do that too. I will keep this activity flexible - if anyone wants to join - then let us know and we can decide times.

Ice-skating -  our sons have got a new passion - we bought skates today! We will try do to as much iceskating as possible the next couple of weeks. Id like to get the boys into a class or hire a teacher. Would anyone be interested in an iceskating/hockey class once a week? 

What we did last week


We need most of the actitivies I posted last week. We have been ice-skating several times. The sunsets this week have been amazing. 

Worldschooling flats for rent in an excellent location
