PermaKids - Permaculture, Ecology & Art for Kids
Do you want your children to discover the alchemy between art and nature while learning to care for the planet? Our permaculture, ecology and art workshop for children offers a practical, fun and educational experience in an inspiring permaculture and sustainability centre in Barcelona.
Through a variety of playful and sensory-based activities, children are invited to discover natural materials, express their imagination, and develop a deeper awareness of the environment around them.
The workshops encourage curiosity, creativity, and respect for nature, offering a warm and inspiring setting where each child can learn at their own pace.
PermaKids facilitator Daniella Querol is a Mexican visual artist, educator, and permaculturist based in Catalumya. She creates activities that allow children to observe and connect with nature with their heads, hearts and hands. Daniella is fluent in English, Spanish, Catalan, and German, so her workshops are accessible to kids from many different lands and adapted to the specific group’s needs.
Designed for youngsters aged 5 to 14, the PermaKids activities encourage children to observe and connect to nature with their heads, hearts and hands through:
* Cooperative games
* Exploratory adventures: immersion in nature and discovery of the four elements — Earth, Fire, Water, and Air
* Sharing practices: talking circles, gratitude circles, and self connection tools (Sit Spot)
* Yoga and dance for children
* English-language learning skills
* Permaculture and sustainability principles woven into daily life through small, practical activities such as gardening and cooking
