Let's share our festivals

The aim of our project is to share our religious and cultural festivals with different countries. We also want to learn and live different culture through photos, videos and different activities. We have many different festivals, for example Ramadan Festival, Sacrifice festival, Hıdırellez, etc. If you join us, we can share our cultures each other. Because we think that sharing culture is the same as sharing the world.

Animals and Pets

The idea is for the children (aged 3 to 5) to exchange information about animals and pets. Children will draw pictures of animals, take pictures of pets, write about their pets, write sentences to match animal descriptions, take photos and send a video of songs.
