Children of the older groups, actively, focused and raced to test their strength and knowledge about Lithuanian animals in the quiz "Do you know a fairy tale?". Children took part in various competitions: they put together puzzles, tried to name fairy tales, tell whose footprints are depicted, etc.

 Pre-school children together with their teachers went to Tadas Ivanauskas Zoological Museum. There they listened about various animals: what they eat, where they live, what are they afraid of, etc.

 Children (5-6 years old) listened story "The Brave Hare". They learned how to play it and showed it to younger children in our kindergarten.

 Children (4-5 years old) listened to various fairy tales about animals. Then, together with help of teacher, they made animals from paper and other materials. Also learned to play fairy tale named "Glove".

 Afternoon of Fairy-Tales

On the 1st of March in our preschool groups we organised the Afternoon of fairy-tales. Each group had prepared one fairy-tale about animals which to show to other groups. The "Owlet" group showed "Zvēri un abru taisītājs" ("Animals and tray maker"). The "Hedgehog" group showed "Brīvgrāmata" (""Book of freedom") and made all the necessary decorations and props for their performance themselves. The "Sunflower" group showed "Vecīša cimdiņš" ("Mitten of a man") with movements, but the little "Bears" showed how different animals dance in the forest.

Among fairy-tales, games, fok-songs and dances we spent our afternoon of fairy tales.

Educational activity "From a fairytale to book"

In our kindergarten we experienced an unusual encounter. The author of fairy-tales and books for children Inese Valtere visited us. In an attractive and engaging for children manner she told how stories are created, what do layout artists, letter men, how do we get golden ketters on the books. She also invited  our children to visit land of fairy-tales and imagine diverse unimaginable thigs. Together they drew a character from her books - Zibsniņš - and got its special greeting.
