Walking among fields

February 25th, 2009

In our E-ZINE nr. 12 we present again 6 proposals to enjoy the weekend with children. This time we have followed a recommendation of one of the members of our net, Rafel Caixal from Valls, and we have visited the Pla de Santa Maria. If it is sunny we propose you a route on foot or by bike around the booths of stone of this village, an itinerary full of corners and hiding places that will convert the route into a game for the children. It’s a great season to go, since you will find the almond trees in blossom! And afterwards you can enjoy of a good escargot menu at the Masia del Pla.  If you like gastronomy, you shouldn’t miss the Xatonada in Segur de Calafell.  You will find even a child demonstration of xatonaires.

But if it rains, you can listen to musical stories at the Bartrina Theatre of Reus or let the children be creative making mosaics in the Abacus of Tarragona. And for the smallest we have some musical video clips so they can memorize the Catalan traditional songs.

Remember that at the advanced search of ExploraTgn.cat website you’ll find more proposals searching by region, route, restaurant, accommodation, link or celebration. We have also a list of all previous E-ZINES so you can have a look at them.

With the “trapella” bee

February 19th, 2009

To prepare the E-ZINE nr. 11 we had a special guest: the trapella bee. Our daughter of 2 years and half arrived on Friday at home with the mascot of class, which had to accompany us all the weekend. The bee enjoyed of one of the most splendid places of the Baix Camp: Les Tosques, in Capafonts. She slide down of the giant toboggan in Calafell at top speed without being freighted, and the children made a mask that we printed out from the website Dibujos para pintar, a page full of handy crafts resources. So the bee has now a few adventures to explain the class.

If you search alternatives to the adventures of the trapella bee, you can go to Montblanc to enjoy Carnival in a different way. The show offered by Articulat will encourage you to sing and dance. After a funny morning, enjoy of the Catalan traditional cooking at the Molí del Mallol, in Montblanc. And speaking about gastronomy, remember that on Sunday you have an appointment at the Artichoke Celebration of Amposta, where you will be able to taste 6 different dishes prepared with artichokes.
