The organizer of the project is the kindergarten from Estonia, Tallinn (Tallinna Tammetõru Lasteaed) and kindergarten from Croatia (Dječji vrtić Hlapić Semeljci). The main goal of this project is to teach children to understand their culture and traditions, also understand and respect other cultures, traditions and languages.
