AT ΚiEPOS Kids Club, we strongly believe that holidays must leave children with both fun and educational memories. So, we create programs that fit their developmental needs and at the same time connect them with the destination and its unique characteristics. Experienced personnel that draw their inspiration from child-centered pedagogical models such as Montessori and Reggio pedagogy, have created thriving programs for each age group, developed in a way that fits the holiday mood and multi-cultural groups of kids. Our main goal is to connect children and their families with the destination, the people, the local flavor and with each other. And we do it by maintaining a carefully prepared environment and an inspiring, well-trained personnel. At KiEPOS Kid’s Club children can play individually within a well-organized environment of Montessori activities and thoughtfully chosen toys, or they can join a group and experience connection with other children through art, physical activities, exploration, and creative projects. They can express themselves in multiple ways and explore ways to communicate. Having a good time in our kid’s club means having several options to choose from daily, showing respect to different age groups, needs and cultures. We do our best to prepare, guide, and offer unique sensory experiences where children and families can feel comfortable and safe, get excited and have fun. Teens are a special group, with a need to connect, socialize, and explore new challenges. We draw our inspiration from the human systems theory and offer activities, happenings and experiences that will satisfy this demanding age group.
