The art of everyday togetherness

Our mission at Art.of.Hygge is to create a warm atmosphere and enjoying the good things in life with good people. Hygge (hoo-gae) is a Danish and Norwegian word for a mood of coziness and comfortable conviviality with feelings of wellness and contentment. The warm glow of candlelight is Hygge. Cozying up with a loved one for a movie – that’s Hygge, too. And there's nothing more Hygge than sitting around with friends and family, discussing the big and small things in life. Live the Hygge way!

Our main work focuses largely on mental and emotional well-being of our little beings. Through nature and sensory play, we aim to forge deeper relationships with our children and within the small community.

We aim to create a cozy and Hygge-lig environment in whatever we do, to promote connection with one another and just to allow our hair let loose.

ABOUT ART.OF.HYGGE

"Leaving the "I" at the door, focusing on the "we", we can eliminate a lot of unnecessary drama and negativity. Happy families and social support yield happier kids."

A mom of 3 young and energetic boys, I am very involved in the early childhood education scene in the Netherlands, Europe (2014-2018). In August 2017, I set up a voluntary playgroup with a friend, for young children in the library in Amstelveen, the Netherlands, offering weekly storytelling and sing along sessions to the local community. Back in my home country, I continue to host weekly music and movement with storytelling and sensory play & craft sessions for babies & toddlers and kids cooking and baking sessions. In November 2018, I completed a Kids Yoga Teacher Training conducted by Rainbow Yoga and certified to teach kids yoga. In July 2019, I completed a post-natal and baby yoga teacher training. In

OUR MISSION

We believe that children thrive in an environment which values their own uniqueness, while providing support and opportunities to grow emotionally, socially and creatively. By building on each child’s strengths, interests and curiosities, we guide each child to explore the world around them as well as develop new abilities and form close relationships.

KIDS. CAN. COOK!

2 hr cooking or baking workshop

It is never too late, (or too early!), to get your kids helping in the kitchen. It certainly takes a lot more time, patience, and some extra clean-up. But the benefits of cooking with kids are totally worth it.

Each cooking or baking session is curated to a theme to allow kids to make connections with what they are making as they see, feel, hear & taste. It could be storytelling, sensory bins, simple art/craft activity or even games!

PLAY. CRAFT. SING

Sensory activities for 1-4 yo

A 2 hour weekly thematic playgroup that emphasizes on Purposeful Play and Quality Interaction.

Each week, kids get to explore various modes of P.L.A.Y (sensory, water, light) along with C.R.A.F.T work related to the theme. Every session ends with a S.I.N.G along session with movements and kids yoga poses!

BABY YOGA @ PUNNGOL PARK

3mo to crawling babies

Nurture that special connection with your baby. Let's be vulnerable and courageous in this motherhood journey. You and your baby can have a special relationship you’ve always dreamed possible as you consciously connect through yoga and music.

Being a new mom is a life changing experience. Your body undergoes tremendous changes the moment you are pregnant and even after you gave birth to your baby. Your maternal instincts start to kick in and you sometimes feel that you have changed emotionally. Your needs and priorities are different now as a mother. The period after post-birth is as important as the entire pregnancy journey. During this time, you show tender loving care to not only your baby, but most importantly yourself. You learn to connect to yourself and with your baby.

Yoga helps to replenish your energy. A regular practice of postnatal yoga could be the best way for a new mum to restore and condition the body – like once before.

FAMILY YOGA @ PUNGGOL PARK

Young families with 2-6yo

Family yoga is great opportunity to bond with your kid(s) & spouse through your breathing, your movement and touch. You can build the special relationship you’ve always dreamed possible as you consciously connect through yoga and music.

The class is designed most suitable for young families with children from 2 to 6 years old. There will be lots of singing, creative storytelling, imaginative role play, games, breathing techniques and parent-child touch therapy.

Practicing yoga in nature brings many benefits. We allow ourselves to re-connect with Mother Earth, awakening all our senses and feel grounded. This is Mindfulness In Motion.

CREATIVE NATURE ACTIVITIES

Mother Nature is our Best Teacher

Let's not be the last kid in the woods. Get into the woods and soak yourselves in the nature. Just being in the nature is healing. It awakens our senses, allows us to slow down to observe, to think, to dream and to create. Activities are planned in the nature settings, making use of as much natural materials (such as dried leaves, rocks, twigs etc) as possible to explore, discover and learn new things.

Please get in touch with any questions. We’re always happy to help.
