This is the first of it’s kind enrichment program for children in Ramat Eshkol! Each child will be enthralled with the engaging activities and academic subjects that turn learning into an adventure.

We get a firsthand experience with various musical instruments and learn about their origins, understand different beats and rhythms, while learning how to make amazing sounds!
