TOY STORIES: portraits of children and their toys around Europe

Our project is called ‘TOY STORIES: portraits of children and their toys around Europe.’ Children communicate easily. The differences in their religions, languages, cultures and races cannot prevent them from communicating with each other. Toys, games and festivals are the most important communication way of children from the past to the present. But today, with the technology coming into the children's lives, "the toy culture" is about to be forgotten. Considering these observations, we have made a project. Our project aims to teach children about themselves by using toys and to make them explore the world of toys, games and festivals. The toys, which are very important for the children, are one of the big economic sectors in many countries. Today, both in our country and in many countries a few "craftsmen" still keep doing the toys using simple methods in small workshops, despite the fact that they are expensive whereas cheap toys are produced as mass production in big factories.
