The money will be paid into the bank account of the school library in Gunja and all unsold books will be donated to families with children who need help.
Schedule on June 14 – Family Entertaiment Day:
- Poi: Poi are traditional Maori ball suspended on a piece of string. Maori have with them performing their traditional dances and use them to increase their strength and willingness to fight. At Pogonizacija we do not fight with Poi, but we will learn you and your children how to make one and how to perform interesting moves and dances. With a pair of old socks, a cup of rice and a piece of bubble wrap nylon, you can become a master of Poi! Tutor: Ana Hušman
- Fireballs: Fireballs actually dont' burn, although they look just like that! In this workshop you can easily create your own fireball with the help of rice, pieces of cloth and a few colorful strips. The only question is whose fireball will fly the farthest? Tutor: Ana Hušman
- Editing workshop: We approach the basics of film editing and different ways of telling a story. Assigning different tasks throughout the game, children will visualize the situation before and after, things outside the picture frame, modified event stories and they will try to put everything together in a logical sequence. Tutors: Sandra Bastašić and Hrvoslav Brkušić.
- Camera obscura workshop: In this workshop we will get familiar with camera obscura Participants will enter into a large darkened cardboard box and experience the world of projection of light and time. Tutors: Dinka Radonić and Ivan Slipčević.
- Origami and balloons: a paper rocket or boat you probably already know how to make. And what about somewhat more complicated, such as a crane, frog or lilies? Or something even more complex, like a dog balloon? In this workshop you will need only a bit of patience, everything else is waiting for you at Pogonizacija.
- Stop-Motion Animation: How to in twenty paces make a cartoon? More precisely in the twenty photos. Children will learn how the image is formed and they can make bay themselves the main characters of the story. Tutor: Bojan Krištofić.
- Hunt for invasive species: "Invasive alien plant species? Oh, what an invasion they make? And should not we have heard something about it?". At the Family entertaiment day we offer you a great opportunity to find out what are invasive plant species, where are they hiding and, perhaps most importantly, what is the problem. The hunt starts at 6:00 p.m.! We have gifts for the most successful and daring ones. Hunting is designed for children of preschool and school-age children, but we welcome anyone who wants to learn something (new) on invasive species. Tutors: Marina and Luka Škunca, Udruga Populus.
