We will have the chance to learn and play with all 24 letters of the Greek Alphabet, but also get to know different techniques and forms of Greek art!

How did the ancient Greeks draw their vases? How was the famous Alexander the Great pebble mosaic created? What letters did the byzantine monks use and how did they decorate their rare manuscripts? Then, what does the motto “Healthy mind in a healthy body” mean? Can we use our bodies to write down words? Do not forget to help us prepare letter cookies which we can share during our “mountain” tea time, and find the letters that could describe better the taste of Greek thyme honey!!!

Some words about methodology;

This workshop focuses on the Greek Language. The kids will have the chance to play linguistic games, create letters of the Greek Alphabet in different ways but also get to know famous pieces of ancient, hellenistic and medieval Greek Art. This workshop aims to involve children in the Greek language, while helping them improve their vocabulary, spelling and writing through art.
