It is the first week of summer holidays. While some families escape the city hoping for a gentle breeze at the seaside, many stay here, keep working and might struggle a bit to keep their children occupied for eight weeks. On Local Matters this week we check out what is going on in Luxembourg for children during summer.

The sunflower crèche in Findel today hosts the children of their three facilities together with others who registered just for the summer program. Outside in the garden, kids are playing football. Inside, they prepare smoothies. This week’s theme is fruit and vegetables. The kids learn about growing fruit and vegetables, they taste a lot and visit a farm where they can harvest fruit themselves. Every year, lots of children register for Sunflower’s summercamp. The activities are open for children aged 4 to 12. Everyone can join the activities to not get bored during summer.
