In contrast, at the Katica farm: Goodness me! It’s raining again! How lovely! 

What’s so good about the rain?

A day like this opens up new opportunities to keep the children occupied, to relax, play, learn, build team spirit, bring out our creative side, unwind through craft activities, share experiences and truly spend time together. 
What can you do when it’s raining? There are loads of things.

Games

There is a separate play area for toddlers, growing children, and those who are no longer children in body but still are in spirit.
Games and riddles line the way at every turn. All of the following are located in a rain-protected area: air hockey, table tennis, billiards, table football, numerous board games, small games to develop dexterity, and memory games. Those who have already tried them all can venture outside the building, where, still sheltered from the rain, a different kind of competition can begin. Telibe-Találda offers carefree fun for all ages; as the name suggests, the essence of the game is clear. Two teams of five can shoot at each other simultaneously in a flurry of sponge balls. For those who have already perfected their billiards skills, an enhanced version awaits: football billiards, where it’s your feet, rather than your hands, that get to shine. 
Once the whole family has worked up a sweat playing the big game, they can get a breath of fresh air and gain an insight into life on the farm. Nature lovers can continue on to the petting zoo in the direction where the farm’s animals await curious eyes and caressing hands, sheltered from the rain here too
This unique new indoor play centre, opening in the spring of 2018, is set to thrill both existing and new visitors with even more exciting features – but we can’t reveal any more about them until March.  

Programs

Preserving traditions is an integral part of Katica Tanya’s philosophy. One of the „most mouth-watering” examples of this is the regular weekend tradition of making langalló dough and baking bread,  with every member of the family able to play an active part in each stage of the process, whilst taking a little trip back in time and, of course, sampling the end result. Creativity comes to the fore during the craft sessions, where thematic programmes are available upon purchase of a ticket. The custom T-shirts and the wax handprints provide the children with a lasting memento.

Restaurant

Everyone gets hungry in the big game. The restaurant Its excellent kitchen offers a wide range of delicacies both in the morning and in the afternoon. Guests can enjoy home-style dishes à la carte. Each themed weekend features a special culinary offering. Katica Tanya is also a superb venue for events of all sizes. There’s no better place to celebrate a birthday.

Eco-consciousness

We only use energy that we generate ourselves in a self-sustaining way to run Katica Tanya renewable energy source. Solar panels and solar collectors also serve this purpose. Collecting rainwater reduces the consumption of drinking water. Motion-sensor lighting is fitted in every washroom. The constructed wetland wastewater treatment system „removes” substances harmful to us without the use of chemicals, relying instead on nature. As a result, everyone who visits Katica Farm has a lower environmental impact than if they had stayed at home. We’re doing nature a favour by reducing our ecological footprint!

Whether the aim is to burn off excess energy, shake off boredom or lift a gloomy mood, the first thing that will spring to the Takács family’s mind from now on is none other than the Katica Tanya Adventure Centre in Patca.
