Festivals Malta in collaboration with Reġjun Lvant, Malta's Region of Culture 2024,
will host a number of children's activities on the 2nd of November across various localities with the participation of 6 local councils.
For the list of activities you can have a look below:
Ta' Xbiex Local Council
The Ta’ Xbiex Local Council shall be organising an event in collaboration with The Three Palaces Festival and Reġjun Lvant on the 2nd of November 2024 between 9:30am and 12:30pm.
This activity will be targeting children between 4 to 10 years of age; however, children of all ages will be welcome.
During this activity we shall be exploring the beauty of multi-disciplinary fun learning activities. The activities will begin with the animated reading of The Story Orchestra- four seasons in one day which is an interactive book which will allow the children to hear pieces of Vivaldi’s wonderful Four Seasons. We will then have an art session which will allow the children to tap into their imagination and create a painting inspired by the four seasons. Before the activity comes to an end the children will be encouraged to explore movement/dance to sections of the four seasons. This activity will not only be educational and expose children to literature, music, dance, and art but also encourage creativity, participation, and imaginative play.
