About project


Older people are acting against the grandchildren of care and educational functions reside with them, often more time than their parents, are also associated with them a strong emotional bond. In such an atmosphere deliberately or subconsciously communicate to the youngest generation of their own cultural values, they formed their own patterns of behavior. In an atmosphere of sustained contact with a grandson and a strong emotional bond with him, the elderly deliberately or subconsciously communicate to the young generation of valuable cultural values of his era, shaped by its attitude towards life and the next and more people, generally valuable for individual and social life. Communicate these values and patterns of behavior, which proved that in the past were the best and are still valuable to the family and society. Transmit them in stories, songs, legends, behaviors, gestures, costumes, festivals and customs.
  
We want to show that: Being a grandparent is a big job, but grandparents have a lot of experience. Grandparents are a great treasure for grandchildren. It's a treasure for the whole family. If your grandparent needs help, you might be the one to lend a hand. And your grandparent might be able to help you for example by playing a game . Show that we are the same and different in relationships with older people. We want to develop language skills and ICT.
