The suitcase is suitable for 5-12-year-old children.
Font with pen and ink
Are you fresh on a challenge? So try your hand at estimating. In the old days, all children had to learn to write italics and when the writing assignments were handed over to the school teacher, it was important that everything was written neatly and without ink stains. Try writing with pen and ink yourself and see how good you are at estimating. The stand with pen and ink can be found in the exhibition about Ingemann. Ingemann was an author and wrote all his manuscripts in pen and ink.
Estimated writing is particularly suitable for children from 7-14 years.
puppet theater
Little Red Riding Hood and the Wolf or a homemade fairy tale about princesses and owls. It is only the imagination that sets the limits when it comes to playing puppet theater. In the klunkestuen there is a puppet theater with accompanying puppets for free use. In the clunky times, it was common in bourgeois homes for classical plays to be performed in small puppet theaters with fine scenery. Both BS Ingemann and Ludvig Holberg, who lived and worked in Sorø, wrote plays.
The puppet theater is particularly suitable for children 4-10 years.
In the exhibition The Creatures of Darkness, you must shudder, marvel, touch, play and learn. Children and adults can see their fears in their eyes in the darkroom, hear truthful and incredible legends from the local area in the cozy corner and find traces of the creatures of darkness in the farmhouse. Santa, the moss cone and the troll look in through the windows, while the farmer snores and farts in the alcove bed and you can cuddle with the black cat and cook soup on the fireplace. Feel free to sit down in the living room and read aloud to the children about the many exciting things that are in the living room.
The Creatures of Darkness is especially suitable for children from 6-12 years.
