DDM Stonožka Nová Paka is a community centre for children, young people, adults and families, offering opportunities to learn, create and spend free time meaningfully. Its programs include after-school clubs, holiday and day camps, events, courses for adults, and activities for schools and educators. The centre also supports young children and their parents through several dedicated programs.

Montík is a small children’s group for ages two to six, guided by certified carers and inspired by Montessori principles. Radovánek offers play, music and creative activities for mothers and children aged zero to three, while Monte Klubík helps parents and children aged 18 to 36 months explore and develop skills together. For children aged four to nine, Volňásek provides a supervised place to play, do homework or wait for other activities.

Stonožka describes itself as a safe, welcoming space where people grow through creativity, confidence, responsibility and respect for others. Based in Nová Paka, the centre is established across generations, with former participants returning as instructors and sharing their enthusiasm with new generations
