Project idea

• Developing the capacities of the Early children of the Disadvantaged communities whilst providing them with communal and physical care and institutionalized education to prepare them for a boosted late life.
• Creating awareness for the society of the special role each and every person can play to support early children's development.
• Recreating the Community space.
Activating the forms and methods of work (developed during the project) On the basis of the experience gained during the two-year cooperation, we proposed some activating methods. The activating methods are those forms of organizing work with a child which stimulate action and support free and spontaneous child's activity. These methods integrate the
group as well; they encourage learning and make children feel happy.
