The animation "Vanten" (Glove) that children produced with me at the kindergarten where we started animateing participated in Wildlife Vaasa festival. It was shown on the big screen and was among the five best in the category Film made by children. Vanten was the last animation I made with children at this kindergarten. I hope they will carry on and let chidren make animations under years to come.
Letting children animate and explore different kinds of media is something I always will do. And hopefully soon there will be two kindergartens in Vaasa that takes advantage of the benefits and joy in makeing animations and explore different kinds of medias.
