From 22 February to 9 March, come join us for a new edition of Krokuskriebels! This year’s theme is games! All open activities are free. Registration is required for the workshops.
African board games
Have you heard of Felli, Targui, or Cirk? These are some examples of fun African board games that you can come and play in the second week of the Carnival holidays. There’s also Yoté, also known as ‘Choko’ in Gambia, or Awélé, where you sow and reap. Some games are played alone, while others require two or more players.
Dip-O-Dip : a ‘happy families’ game for budding scientists
Did you know that flies, like bees, are terrific pollinators? This is also true in Africa.
Play this ‘happy families’ game and find out which flies are the best pollinators, which ones are the biggest, which ones are found in Belgium, and so on! At the AfricaMuseum, budding scientists can see knowledge come into full bloom.
Like small chameleons: A workshop for tiny tots
The littlest ones can have fun with mum, dad, grandma… in an AfricaMuseum workshop space that has been specially designed with them in mind. All the senses are awakened in a range of activities that all have a small, colourful chameleon as the main character. The workshop ends with a short shadow puppet show.
Plenty of reason to come and visit with your family in the summer holidays. While you're here, you can look for the colourful sensory boxes hidden in the museum rooms. In them, you'll find all kinds of fun assignments. How about making a spider's web without looking? Picturing your own proverb on a Congolese pot lid? Or listening to Burundian wedding music?
