Inspired by successful former experience association “Child’s Friend” the children from our Kindergarten decided to celebrate Spring Day and the Day of Europe with a colorful international exhibition of children’s drawings. Many children and teachers from all over Europe posted, or e-mailed their work of art. We made nice frames for each painting and decorated the hall of the European Information Centre for the grand opening.

That is how it looked on 8 May, ready to welcome dear guests.

32

After viewing the exhibition, the guests enjoyed a lively concert performance presented by the children from Kindergarten “Child’s Friend”.

33

Then the guests had another chance to

enjoy the beauty of the drawings and share

with the children the contents of the

recreation tables. There were some cakes,

biscuits and sweets and of course lots of

water and fruit juices. Just as appropriate

for young children.

34

The children were very happy receiving lovely sun hats and big balls with the European symbols printed on them.

Then we gave the floor to Mr. Marin, who was very touched by all the beauty around and the artistic performance of the children.

We also hang lots of small toys made by ourselves.In school parents bring the presents secretly on the day of the celebration.

The school festivity is also almost a family gathering. Usually both parents / often accompanied by grand parents and other relatives/ attend the concert show which the children perform, with singing, dancing and role-playing. Children, parents and teachers meet together Father Christmas, who gives each one a present. The parents participate in our feast, and all share some special sweets and other treats.

Children make the first Christmas cards for Father Christmas, in which they write their wish for a present. Teachers send the messages to Father Christmas. He usually satisfies all reasonable wishes.
