Children's Activities
The program during the Eyewitness Event is also very suitable for children. Edutainment is of paramount importance and children can therefore PARTICIPATE and EXPERIENCE!
For example, they can LEARN MARCHING in the encampments, be amazed during the exciting MAKE FIGHTS (mock battles). Curious how heavy a BACKPACK of a PARATROOPER is? Go test it during the event! They can walk through the trenches and encampments themselves and ask all their questions to the participants!
If they would like to experience how heavy a real Second World War weapon was, they can test this themselves with the FIREARMS TEAM.
CAST YOUR OWN TIN SOLDIER
At the militaria market, near the Museum Café, children can visit Tin Foundry ''De tinnen lepel'', where for a small fee they can cast their own tin soldier to take home as a souvenir.
RADIO CONTROL ARMOR GROUP HOLLAND
Throughout the weekend, steel radio-controlled vehicles from the Radio Control Armor Group Holland will be driving around the grounds. Some models are over one metre long (scale 1:4) and represent all major combatant nations of the Second World War. These models are recreated with incredible attention to detail and closely resemble the original vehicles. The models on display range from 1:4 to 1:144.
IN SHORT: A FUN, INTERACTIVE AND EDUCATIONAL DAY OUT FOR KIDS!
