Tangram is a Chinese game, which contains 7 tiles, polygons, called tans, and it is very popular amongst children at kindergarten age.
The tiles are put together to form shapes. The objective is to replicate a pattern (given only an outline) generally found in a puzzle book using all seven pieces without overlap.
Alternatively the tans can be used to create original minimalist designs that are either appreciated for their inherent aesthetic merits or as the basis for challenging others to replicate its outline.
The tangram has been used for various purposes including amusement, art, and education.

🐑🐑🐑St. George's Day, the beginning of summer. An important point for the agricultural calendar.
According to mythology, the god of vegetation rises and defeats the forces of the underworld.🍀🍀🍀 Translated from Greek, the name Georgi means farmer. That is why in folklore he is considered the patron saint of agriculture, herds, fertility, well-being and health!

Happy Holiday!

Good morning on the First of May, The Labour Day.
People celebrate. Not the chance to have work, but the approval of their rights to work in safety, to get fair price for their labour and to work 8 hours a day. So in Bulgaria we have a lot to do to reach to the celebration.
Happy Labor Day!

Some sights from Northwestern Bulgaria where we went on a trip in the spring holiday.

The Belogradchik Cliffs – A Natural Wonder

The Belogradchik Cliffs, a unique natural phenomenon.
The Belogradchik Cliffs were sculpted by natural forces over a period of more than 200 million years.
Their iron ore content gives them their reddish coloration.
They vary in form, and are more than 100 meters high
The first group of cliffs are situated near the city of Belogradchik. The most famous of these are called by the name of the forms they have - The Rider, Madonna, The Dervish, Adam and Eve, The Mushrooms, The Lion, The Monks, The Bear, The Castle, and The Shepherd Boy.
Another group of cliffs is located west of the city. The most famous of these are The Zbegove (The Strongholds), Erkyupia and Borich. A well-marked road suitable for motorized transport leads to these formations. Among the towering cliffs are deep ravines, and here can be found the most interesting rock formations – the Twins and the Lesser and Greater Zbeg, once the site of fortifications.
The cliffs near The Zbegove and Borich are amazing, resembling gigantic Sphinxes, monkey’s heads, mummies, mosques’ minarets and cupolas, winged serpents, and others.
Roughly 4 km to the east of the city is situated the third group, which include the cliffs near the Latin Gate and the Lipenik cave.
The fourth group is to be found between the villages of Borovitsa and Falkovets. Here are the celebrated Pine Rock, Bee Rock, The Torlak, and The Maiden’s Cliff.
The last group of cliffs is located near the villages of Gyurgich and Belotitsi.
In the fissures of the Belogradchik Cliffs the ancient Romans built fortifications that were later used by Bulgarians and Ottomans – The Belogradchik Fortress.
Today the fortress is as popular among tourists as the cliffs.

In 2007, the Belogradchik Cliffs were nominated in a competition to select the New Seven Wonders of the World and they were among the foremost contenders, although they didn’t reach the finals.
The Belogradchik region is now without doubt a preeminent tourist destination. In 2008, the city won a national competition held by the EDEN program that honors superior tourist locations, thanks to its rich Thracian heritage and its remarkable natural beauty.

My soft books are home made craft. They are designed and decorated by me with the greatest attention to the last detail.
They are made from fabrics, I use a lot of zippers, snaps, buttons and other elements which train the little fingers.(You know that there is a direct connection between the level of fine motor skills of the child and his ability to speak, don"t you?)
🐄
I choose popular folk tales, which contain a few characters, and repeating phrases, easy to be remembered by the children.
🐎
Children love to play puppet theatre. They take roles, and enjoy performing the story again and again. Kids create new stories with the scenery and characters, which are available, every time they bring their imagination to a new level.

❤️Some sweet memories from our Easter trip to Lovech three years ago popped up this morning.

My son, and the Covered Bridge of Lovech.❤️

The bridge is one of the few remaining in Europe that have shops on them. Other examples include the Krämerbrücke in Erfurt and the Ponte Vecchio in Florence.

The original bridge before the fire in 1925

Inside the Covered Bridge
After the bridge that then served the town was almost completely destroyed by a flood in 1872, the local police chief ordered the famous Bulgarian master builder Kolyu Ficheto to construct a new one. Ficheto personally chose the material for the wooden bridge. Each citizen of Lovech contributed to the building process, the poorer ones working themselves and the wealthier donating money and paying other workers. Building finished in 1874.

The bridge was decorated by four sculpture figures, a lion, a two-headed eagle, female bust, and a stick with a mace. The lion figure can be found on the bridge today.

The initial bridge had a length of 84 m and 6 vents and accommodated 64 shops. It was, however, wholly destroyed by fire on the night of 2 to 3 August 1925. A more modern bridge was constructed at its place in 1931 only to be replaced by a reconstruction of Kolyu Ficheto's design in 1981–82. The current bridge is 106 m long and has 14 shops, the architect being Zlatev.
