Skidiviikko offers a diverse range of children’s culture events throughout Tuusula from 3 to 9 March. The Skidiviikko programme is free of charge, but advance registration is required. Registration begins on Monday, 3 February at 9 a.m.

There will be many different types of puppet theatre performances. During the week, we will see a little red ball named Pipu, Raxu Taskunen, who fits easily into your pocket, and dream together with Nimbu the seal. The music for Skidiviikko will be provided by, among others, the Laulukudelmia concert, winner of the Jellona award for best newcomer in children’s music, and the classical concert Kuka lohduttaisi Nyytiä? (Who will comfort Nyyti?). The concert tells the beloved story of Tove Jansson’s little troll Nyyti. There will also be dancing, theatre, workshops and clowning.

On Saturday during Skidi Week, Children’s Saturday will be celebrated at Kulttuuritalo Monio. The day will begin with a diverse selection of workshops and culminate in a groovy concert by the children’s band Megasaki.

Children’s culture is beneficial

The name of Tuusula’s early childhood education cultural education plan is Taika-Kultsu. The cultural education plan is a plan for how cultural, artistic and cultural heritage education is implemented in the municipality as part of teaching and brought into children’s lives. Cultural education supports the formation and development of children’s cultural identity.

Skidiviikko features high-quality children’s cultural performances by professional artists. The performances are entertaining, thought-provoking and insightful, and are tailored to the age level of the children. Culture aimed at children gives its audience a positive attitude towards artistic creation and cultural expression.

It is important for children to experience and engage in culture and art. Culture gives children the opportunity to learn diverse forms of expression, nurtures their imagination and creativity, deepens their social relationships and helps them develop self-esteem.
