KinderRijk kicks off the summer holidays with OntdekRijk: two days full of discovery, exercise, and fun

The summer holidays at KinderRijk started off perfectly: on July 14 and 15, our out-of-school care children went on an adventure during OntdekRijk BSO 2025. For two full days, they discovered new talents, worked together, and experienced a world full of creativity, nature, sports, and music.

Spread across the grounds, there were seven “Rijken” (realms) to explore. In TimmerRijk (Woodcraft Realm), the children built the coolest constructions with wood, nails, and hammers. In MuziekRijk (Music Realm), they discovered their sense of rhythm with the Klankenkaravaan. In LetterRijk (Language Realm), they went on a word hunt, searching for hidden words all over the area.

NatuurRijk (Nature Realm) brought wonder and awareness, together with the Duurzame Ontdekbus (Sustainable Discovery Bus). In CreaRijk (Creative Realm), the children worked together to create a magical painting on the tiles of the terrain. In SportRijk (Sports Realm), they tried out different sports, guided by the Beweegbus (Move Bus).

And in DansRijk (Dance Realm), all the groups learned a cheerful dance to the OntdekRijk song. On the final day, we all danced together – children and staff – on the big field. A festive and joyful moment to wrap up these two days!

In between, the children enjoyed storm courses and bouncy castles. Climbing, scrambling, falling, and getting back up again – it was all part of the fun.

We enjoyed all the discoveries, the teamwork, and the cheerful atmosphere.

Thanks to all our colleagues and partners who made these two days full of fun, discoveries, and growth possible.
