All kindergartens that participated in the project are interested in internationalizing their activity, getting in contact with colleagues from other countries and showing the project's products on the European stage. This was also the goal of the project. DG "Mir" is willing to increase its level of international cooperation and open new horizons for institutional development through participation in transnational partnerships. Through their participation in the project, all partners gained something new that helped them build their own identity and better represent themselves in their local and national communities. We want something new to move life on the local soil, and the project has content that has done this both inside the kindergarten and in the local community, as the products it has produced resonate with both parents and citizens in the places where the project activities are implemented. Through the project, each partner organization enters the spotlight and increases its leadership potential, increasing job satisfaction and quality of life in the respective institutional community.

The project activities are: 1. Project management and implementation. 2. Introductory training in Shadow Theater. 3.
