KITCHEN CLUB ​

Picture
The idea of Kitchen Club is cooking together and speaking Finnish in a relaxed atmosphere. It's a fun activity, that includes light Finnish speaking, short talk about food and nutrition, home gardening and environmental protection, household economics and consumer issues. In the end of the event cooked food is eaten together. In Kitchen Club we get to know Finnish dishes and food culture as well as cuisines all the round the world. 

Fall 2022 Kitchen Club happens on four Fridays from 10.00-14.00: 30.9., 28.10., 25.11. and 16.12. Kitchen Club takes place in Ruoholahti/Jätkäsaari, at Swedish Martha’s premises.  
​

Because there are limited places in this activity, pre-registration is mandatory.

Familia kid's yoga with lilla

Picture
  • In Helsinki and Espoo
  • Register for the Helsinki event
  • Register for the Espoo event
  • Teaching will be in English

Welcome to Familia’s kid’s yoga with Lilla! This Spring we are inviting intercultural kids in the Helsinki region to delve into the world of story-based yoga that will help build their mental and physical strength. Each session will be centered around an interesting character and an important lesson for life, like the value of honesty or focused attention.

The yoga club is meant for children between the ages of 3-9 and the lessons will be tailored especially for the age of the kids.

​During the club parents are invited to join the Duo Living Room happening simultaneously, where they can chat with other intercultural parents over coffee.

The lessons will be facilitated by Familia’s volunteer and certified kid’s yoga teacher Lilla Murányi. 
​Check out our Facebook event too!

WHO CAN TAKE PART?

Picture
The activities are open to anyone looking to meet great people and learn new things. The activities are free of charge and primarily intended for Familia members. The annual membership fee is 20 euro for adults and 10 euro for children (under 16 years). If you are not yet a member, you are welcome to come and check out our activities and decide later whether you wish to join the association. ​Some of our events are also open to anyone who is interested.

HOW DO I SIGN UP?
Advance registration is required for some of the clubs and groups. More information about registration is found next to each individual club or group description.

​WHERE?
Unless otherwise stated, the events are held in the Familia premises. All groups meet at Familia’s premises in Sörnäinen, Lintulahdenkatu 10, Helsinki, which is also the departure point for excursions. Children are welcome to participate along with their parents. The excursions are made on foot or using public transportation (bus, tram or metro). All transportation fees are paid by the participants themselves.
