7. STEP BY STEP
Traditional games offer children the
opportunity to socialize, interact
among themselves consume energy,
to express the need for freedom and
personality.
The first step was the establishment
of the project team and disseminate
the goal, objectives and activities of
the local community project in region
al conferences and publishing
articles in regional and national
press.

8. STEP BY STEP
Play the game now at any age is
the prerogative of the human being.
We will pay relatively little attention
to specific games mature for playful
manifestation of infantile universe.
The second step was to invite
grandparents and parents dressed
in traditional clothes in school
activities for description of
traditional games and toys from
their childhood.
Local research by school teachers
regarding the content and methods
of local traditional game rules
specific to our region.
