As September begins, we hope everyone is gearing up for a smooth and joyful start to the school year! 🍎 This week in Brussels, families have plenty of opportunities to enjoy fun and educational activities together. Kick off Monday with a treasure hunt at the National Bank Museum or try out some free sports sessions at Centre Sportif Victoria in Koekelberg. Midweek, young explorers can join the Junior Computer Club in Ixelles to build their own Minecraft village, or pedal through Laeken’s Vollenbike workshops. Meanwhile, Koekelberg’s Neighborhood Festival offers a delightful mix of music, kids’ activities, and a shared meal to savor together 🎶🌳.
As the week unfolds, don’t miss out on Friday’s local festivities: the 46e Grande Braderie d'Ixelles with concerts and markets, or a historic walk in Rouge-Cloître in Auderghem. Music and open-air cinema bring summer vibes to Uccle, while Koekelberg offers a fun Neighborhood Cinema event 🎭. On Saturday, families can explore Forest on a guided bike tour, join storytimes in Auderghem, Ixelles, and Molenbeek, or participate in beginner cycling courses in Anderlecht.
Looking ahead, Sunday is a perfect day to celebrate culture together! Many Brussels museums will open their doors for free entry, making it an ideal opportunity for a relaxed family outing 🦇🌧️. The weather next week looks mostly cloudy with some rain, so remember to dress accordingly and make the most of these shared moments with your little ones.
