A two-day educational and exploratory cycle of specialized activities gathered nearly 150 children aged between 10 and 14 years at the center of Borodyanka Territorial Community. This was a unique, truly interesting, and eventful introduction to folk games within various life contexts. The young participants were guided by 12 volunteer instructors and their professional assistants across 12 locations.

Health exercises, football drills, informative discussions with employees of the State Emergency Service, and psychological sessions were found to be beneficial and educational by participants and guests at the festival. Each child received a participation certificate, souvenirs, and gifts—soccer balls, branded t-shirts, and caps—as well as knowledge and healthy emotions.
