Before this special holiday time began, three of our volunteers, Damián, Emmeline and Marion, went to the kindergarten to make a workshop with the kids.
To make special this occasion, our volunteers worked in a special activity, the surprising egg. They used cardboard, paper, colours and toothpicks to make an egg that you could open, seeing inside a chick or even other animals. Moreover, our volunteers saw that those eggs could be used by the kids to play and make a story, making for them a really nice theatre.
During that day, the children sang and ran around a room, playing in the different workshops that the kindergarten offered to them. Our volunteers, despite they didn’t know so much Bulgarian, were able to play with the kids and help them to make their eggs, helping them choosing the animal and painting them. After that, all together, kids and volunteers, coloured eggs by a simple technic.
After that activity, out volunteers were invited to go, together with the kids, to the museum of the Easter eggs. There, they helped the teachers with the kids, they learnt about these eggs and they even made their own eggs by the traditional and old technic!
