At Archeon, you can experience the living history of the Netherlands. From prehistory around 8800 BC, through the Roman era, the Viking Age, and the Middle Ages up to 1350 AD. All 45 farms, houses, and huts were once located in the Netherlands and are inhabited by the Archeon guides. <\/p>\n
We have put together a varied program for both children and parents and grandparents. Young and old alike can enjoy fun activities, an informative lecture, and inspiring interactions with one another. <\/p>\n
What are we going to do?<\/h2>\n
10:30 a.m. \u2013 Welcome remarks<\/strong> and the children set off<\/strong> 10:45 a.m. \u2013 Presentation on Volunteering<\/strong> at the OOG in OOG Association: Saskia Spinhoven ( 11:00 a.m. \u2013 Lecture: Coping with Loss Throughout the Different Stages of Life (lecture is for adults)<\/strong> Loss is a part of life. This isn\u2019t just about the death of a loved one, but also about the loss of opportunities, being unable to participate with others\u2014or doing so to a lesser extent\u2014and having to adjust expectations for the future. Every parent can relate to the different stages of life, but how does the world react to your child if they wear an ocular prosthesis or have significantly reduced vision? How do you, as a parent, deal with that? And how does this affect you? <\/p>\n \u201cLetting go\u201d and finding your place in a new class can also be nerve-wracking, both for parents and for the young people themselves. Perhaps your son or daughter is in the midst of puberty. It\u2019s precisely during this stage of life that young people want to fit in and, above all, not be different from others. How can you, as a parent, handle this while at the same time giving your child the space to develop? <\/p>\n During the lecture, you\u2019ll receive practical tips and guidance to help you cope with the challenges of different stages of life. We\u2019ll explore what these changes mean for your child and for you as a parent. <\/p>\n 12:30 p.m. – Group lunch<\/strong> 2:00 p.m. \u2013 Free time to explore Archeon and the playground<\/strong> 3:30 p.m. \u2013 Gladiator Show<\/strong> 4:00 p.m. \u2013 Closing drinks<\/strong> at * 5:00 p.m. \u2013 End of Family Day<\/strong><\/p>\n Please register by September 20, 2026.

During Family Day, Roos Smink, a parent counselor and case manager for Children & Youth at Bartim\u00e9us, will discuss the different stages of life: from infants and toddlers to children, adolescents, and young adults. Each stage of life brings new challenges and requires a different approach from parents. At the same time, each stage has its own form of living with loss. <\/p>\n
We\u2019ll all enjoy a delicious lunch at the Romeinse Herberg or the Atrium.<\/p>\n
Time to explore, play, and enjoy all the wonderful things Archeon has to offer together!

Don\u2019t forget to visit the Zwammerdam ships in the Solarium next to the bathhouse. These Roman ships were discovered in the 1970s in Zwammerdam (a small village not far from Alphen aan den Rijn) and are being restored at Archeon. <\/p>\n
