We will start the days off with sun greetings and morning exercises. We will also enjoy the pleasures of the Baltic sea: building sandcastles, playing various games, arranging picnics in nature, jumping on trampolines. We will explore the environment surrounding us, look for nature’s produced materials, smell the blossoms, we will touch and feel the gentleness of the grass, the wetness of the sand near the sea. We will listen to the birds chirping, the rustle of the sea and we will live in these priceless moments. Every day we will try to experience and discover something new and gain the most positive emotions doing it.
