Aesop's Fables: Family Game at the Athens National Garden

What is a fable? One of the oldest forms of storytelling: a short tale designed to teach a general truth. It is heroes and villains: wise tortoises and conniving foxes, cocky hares and foolish crickets; each one of them revealing a distinct aspect of our human nature, all entwined in the magical world of Aesop, a unique human who allowed us to reflect ourselves through his tales, no matter our age.
Professional actors with experience in child education and entertainment will accompany you on a trail through the National Garden, transforming into the heroes of Aesop’s fables and bringing the ancient tales to life. We will also narrate to you many popular and some lesser known fables, guiding you on this game-filled quest.
All along the park we have set a treasure hunt for you and your family, where the treasure is your picnic. At the end of each game you can win a piece of your own feast and ultimately enjoy it in a beautiful location inside the Garden! Each of our games is inspired by one of our narrated fables, allowing the children to discover and apply the wisdom of each tale. Or not – sometimes it’s pure fun and laughter for the whole family!
