The Vasa Order organized its first children's club tour to Sweden in 1924, where the children sung for King Gustav V and held concerts in cities all over the country. The visit was such a success that Swedish Lodge Göteborg was formed and there are now Vasa Order of America lodges all over Sweden and the kids clubs are still performing today.

Many lodges and districts sponsor Language classes as well as Children's clubs in which Folk Dances are learned and performed in authentic costume. Whenever we can, we take part in programs where our rich heritage may be shared with the public.

Nordikids is a Scandinavian children's group and lodge 208 of The Vasa Order that promotes the culture and traditions of the Nordik Countries. Children between the ages of 4 and up attend weekly meetings to learn language, traditional as well as modern songs and folk dances.
