ПідтриматиThe Goal of the Project
Through the acquaintance of children with various forms of creativity, involving them in contact with various materials, showing them how the joint process of creation is able to influence the child’s own psychological state. Contacting with deep traditions like Easter provides a connection with the past and a symbolism of renewal through pysankarstvo (easter egg painting).
We create spaces of free thoughts for happy children!
