Sunday, September 30th, we are pleased to invite you to the outdoor Autumn activities of the Hortus Urbis, the garden in the Appia Antica Park with solely ancient Roman plants.
At 11am – “TUTTI GIU’ PER TERRA”| Workshop for kids, by Hortus with Cristiana Pezzetta and Gioia Marchegiani
We will read the story of Nadeema and her encounter with the unexpected discovery of the first seed and the beginning of agriculture. An opportunity for kids to understand how a small action can bring grand stories. The reading will be followed by the experiment of painting with earth and afterwards everyone will plant the seeds, let them rest until Spring and come back to see the sprouts in the garden. Then we will be ready for a big ring-around-the-roses all together!
- Ages from 5 to 10
- Time: about 50 minutes
