LET'S TALK
In the TALK program the two worlds are interconnected. The world of seniors from senior facilities and the world of children from kindergartens or primary schools throughout the Czech Republic. We support their regular meetings and thus help create a space for mutual communication between these different generations, active sharing of time, energy, experience and knowledge.
In the TALK program there are specific groups of children from schools, kindergartens behind grandmothers, grandfathers to a nearby senior facility. The aim is for the same children to visit the senior facilities. The purpose is to establish closer ties and easier options formation of possible new friendships. Meetings take place mostly once every 3 to 4 weeks, usually 45-60 minutes or by appointment. The content of these meetings are artistic, musical or movement activities or reading, storytelling, celebrations of various holidays. Our coordinators prepare the meeting and always take an active part in it. The contents of these meetings are planned taking into account the abilities and skills of children and seniors and are adapted to current needs and possibilities. Our program is set up to follow the activities in senior facilities and correspond to the educational plan of preschool and school facilities.
BOTH GROUPS DIVIDE UP TO THREE GENERATIONS
Children look at a world sometimes as old as 90 years old. They learn to respect old age, they have the opportunity to learn something about the world around us from from the point of view of seniors, get to know life in These facilities, listen to experiences, opinions on various things. Society often perceives old people with contempt, so our effort is to help children who, for example, do not meet the oldest generation in the family, look at old age with different eyes.
Regular meetings of generations, on the other hand, also activate the daily lives of seniors. It occurs here transfer of joy, energy, inspiration to experience something new and the desire to pass on to children their experience. They learn from each other's respect, consideration and intergenerational friendship.

INTERGENERATING
In homes for the elderly, there are people who still have something to offer others they say, but they also deserve to be offered something to them. IN Kindergarten are children who can give smiles, energy, immediacy, joy of life. AND it is up to us to connect these two seemingly distant worlds. Unfortunately, this is not always possible naturally, because one's own grandparents are often no longer there or live far away. That's why a little help is needed. For example, this happens in our partner kindergartens and homes for the elderly.
