PERUFOLK Kids Project- Easter

A 4-Day Cultural, Active & Creative Holiday Programme for Reception – Year 3
Delivered by ArtPerUK (CIC) in partnership with Young Harrow Foundation.

PeruFolk Kids brings the vibrant energy of Peruvian culture to life through dance, storytelling, arts, and healthy living activities. This exciting 4-day programme gives children the opportunity to explore traditional Peruvian folklore while building confidence, creativity, and friendships.

To ensure every child receives personalised support and the best possible experience, spaces are intentionally limited.

At the heart of the programme is Peruvian Dance, a joyful and energetic traditional dance from the Peruvian Coast, Andes and Jungle often performed during Easter celebrations. Children will:

• Learn fun and accessible choreography
• Explore rhythm and expressive movement
• Discover the cultural meaning behind the dance
• Build coordination, stamina, and confidence

Alongside Huaylarsh, children will also experience other exciting Peruvian styles such as:

• Marinera
• Festejo (Afro-Peruvian rhythms)
• Jungle-inspired dances

Each day includes at least one hour of high-energy physical activity, helping children stay active while having fun.

Each day also includes:

• Tales of Easter in Huancayo
• Afro-Peruvian music stories
• Jungle adventures with simple instruments
• Activities that boost listening skills and imagination

Children will create:

• Jungle-themed headbands
• Mini “retablos” (traditional Peruvian art pieces)
• Amazonian-inspired face designs

All crafts promote creativity, fine motor skills, and cultural appreciation.

We strongly align with HAF wellbeing priorities. Children will:

• Be physically active for at least 1 hour daily
• Participate in interactive nutritional games (Healthy Bingo & food challenges)
• Learn about hydration, balanced meals, and reducing sugar
• Taste healthy snacks during the programme
• Receive simple take-home nutrition factsheets for families

We make healthy living fun, practical, and easy to continue at home.

Each day includes a shared healthy meal followed by guided relaxation and mindfulness exercises to support:

• Emotional regulation
• Focus and calmness
• Positive wellbeing

On Day 4, children will showcase what they’ve learned in a joyful performance for families — celebrating their progress, teamwork, and cultural discoveries.
