Water: Friend or Enemy? Group 6-8

The Muiderslot and water are inseparable. Water provided protection, prosperity, coolness in summer and skating fun in winter. But water also brought danger, such as floods and enemies approaching via the water.
A group of children participate in the educational program Water: Friend or Enemy? They stand around a table and play an interactive board game.

An in-depth and topical program on past, climate and future-thinking.

In this interactive program, students discover how water has been a source of strength and a threat throughout the ages. Why is Muiderslot situated on the river Vecht? How did residents keep dry feet when the dikes broke? And what does the rising water level mean for us in the future?

Together with a museum teacher, students investigate how people used to deal with water and what we can learn from it today. In the castle atelier they then engage in a discussion game. By thinking, talking and imagining together, they discover how we can live together with water now and in the future.

Themes: Water management, water as defense, water as threat, past and present, climate change, subsistence living

Special education groups are welcome at the Muiderslot. We like to take into account the specific needs of students. A class is therefore divided into two groups by default, each with its own museum teacher.
