A Visit to the Unique Museum of Miniatures

Our Foundation wants all the children to spend their summer holidays usefully. We want every child to receive new impressions, experiences, skills and knowledge every day. As a part of The Road to Life for Every Child program and the Good Cause Every Day! promo event the Konstantin Kondakov Charity Foundation organized educational excursion to the Kiev museum of miniatures to the multi-child families of Danyuk and Misura.

Having crossed the threshold of the gallery boys and girls seemed to arrive in the fairy kingdom of Lilliput. The uniqueness of the museum is in the fact that there are only two galleries of miniatures in the world. The children were amazed by tiny handmade sculptures made by using a unique technology. A representative of the Foundation told the families that the author of all these mini-masterpieces is a world renowned master from Ukraine Nikolai Syadristy.

The kids and their mothers admired the wonderful exhibits of the museum. The large Danyuk and Misyura families had not seen the real steel flea, the world’s smallest violin, a portrait of Yuri Gagarin cut in the blackthorn stone, the world’s smallest operative electric motor, balalaika in the poppy-seed, a caravan of camels in the eye of the needle, and many other masterpieces before.

As the museum is located on the territory of the Kiev-Pecherskaya Laura, after visiting of the museum the families walked on the holy places and were able to admire the architecture of the ancient temples. To make the walk more interesting and funny for the kids a representative of the Konstantin Kondakov Charity Foundation has treated children from large Danyuk and Misyura families with delicious ice cream.

This day brought a lot of new experiences for the children. We believe that our projects encourage the development of the younger generation, because with love in our hearts we are building a new world!
