Project Summary

The project´s main idea was to get teachers, pupils and parents interested in creative activities. The project aimed to acquaint kindergarten children with customs and traditions in different seasons in Wallachia in the Czech Republic and in Kysuce in Slovak Republic through the puppet show performed by the self- made puppets. The project contributed to the expansion of mainstream education in nurseries on both the Czech and Slovak side. There were two key deliverables: 1. Fairytale puppet show “Life in Wallachia and Kysuce” with backdrops created by children, teachers and parents on both sides of the border. The fairytale puppet show included performed scenes with musical accompaniment. 2. Booklet. This booklet introduced the life, customs and traditions of Wallachia and Kysuce in various seasons. Another purpose of the booklet was to expand the preschool education.The impact of the propagation of this unique show on participating partner kindergarten and then on other kindergartens in Valašské Meziříčí and Cadca is very significant in view of the fact that the project applicant is the largest kindergarten in Valašské Meziříčí with more than 200 children. The regional contribution is secured with respect to the possibility of presentation of outputs within the cultural performances at events in surrounding regional towns (e.g. Children´s Day, fairs etc.). International level dissemination of the project was provide through the cooperation of the two nurseries from Valašské Meziříčí and Cadca. These kindergartens are in partnership with foreign partners such as Poland, Montenegro, Serbia, Bulgaria and Netherlands. The aim of the project was to promote cooperation between nurseries and extend the international cooperation between towns. Creative activities in the field of culture with an emphasis in education represent an ideal form of cooperation between pre-school children, teaching stuff and parents. After the end of the project the results was put into practice in kindergartens. The purpose of this activity was to employ new pedagogical methods in pursuance of conventional education in kindergartens and in organizations in both participating countries (The Leisure Time Center Domeček Valašské Meziříčí and Cultural and information centre Cadca).Unequivocal long term benefit was the creation of unique and original outputs which give preschool children an idea of the place where they live including the traditional values of this place. Another benefit is the expansion of educational activities with active support of teachers and parent involvement.
