Kura Kura, our museum turtle, has lost her shell! Luckily, she has many friends in the museum who help her search for it. Would you like to meet Kura Kura’s friends and help her find her shell?
This journey takes us to South America: into the Amazon rainforest of Brazil and to the islands of Tierra del Fuego. We listen to mythical stories, learn about rituals, and try out dances related to growing up—such as the dance of the Sateré Mawé during the ant ritual. With the Selk’nam people of Tierra del Fuego, we discover the role of fright and surprise. Afterwards, we create a small grimace theatre and see who wins the prize for the scariest or funniest face. Each child designs an indiaca, a special ball originating in the Amazon, and tries it out straight away. At the end, something special is made together for the birthday child.
A series of objects has mysteriously disappeared from the museum! Now it’s up to the children: together with the museum turtle Kura Kura, they must solve the case and recover the treasure. On this exciting mission, they uncover fascinating secrets and learn about the missing objects from different regions around the world and their stories. To finish, we round off the detective adventure with a cheerful birthday snack, cake, and games.
