Play with local children

The adventure starts at 9:30 am. By visiting a local school you will learn all about the Costa Rican education system in a rural community. Communicate with the children, ask questions about the school, their life in the community, etc. Feel free to enter a classroom, take a seat and enjoy while observing the teaching. The native students will be happy to meet you. You're very welcome!

After that, you have learned how the local children are taught and how they learn it is time to play now. You are invited to participate in traditional games, such as skipping, various ball games or guesswork. At 10:45 am you say goodbye to your new friends. You make your way to the native forest where you learn more about the local community and their commitment to the environment. You engage in their tree reforestation project positively by planting trees.

Afterwards, you will visit a local family and learn how to prepare sugar cane juice and help to feed various farm animals such as chickens, rabbits, goats and sheep. Before lunch, a villager will show you how to make real tortillas and then enjoy a typical home-cooked meal. In the end, a cup of best coffee will be served.
