Lesson 1

In the first lesson, children explore the concepts of freedom, identity, home, and journey. They are introduced to the project’s author, Alevtina Kakhidze, and the characters from her illustrations. Invited to become co-authors, they compare an “anxiety suitcase” and a “freedom suitcase,” reflect on their personal experiences, and create their own projects. This marks the beginning of a great journey toward self-discovery and the search for one’s own happiness!
