The birth of Droppy

A little drop begins her journey across the skies of Europe.

High in the bright blue sky above Athens,
a soft white cloud was floating slowly.

Below the cloud stood the beautiful Acropolis,
shining under the warm Attic sun.

Inside the cloud, something wonderful was happening.

A tiny water drop was born.

Her name was Droppy.

Droppy looked around with big curious eyes.

“Hi world!” she said happily.

Droppy loved watching the world from her fluffy cloud.She saw hills, rivers and little houses far below.

“I wonder what the sky looks like in other places,”

 she whispered.

Soon the cloud began to travel across the sky.

Over mountains…
over rivers…
over cities she had never seen before.

Droppy looked down with surprise.

“This place looks different…”

                                                                                        Suddenly, Droppy arrived above a new country

Droppy’s First Journey  

LITHUANIA

 Kindergarten ‘Eglutė’, Šiauliai, Lithuania. Teachers: Rimantė Petrauskė, Viktorija Balčiūnė.

And the little drop flew over the lands of Lithuania, over Šiauliai, and looked around. The snow was melting, it was March – spring was already in the air. He was curious to look around Šiauliai – from afar, the Statue of the Golden Boy was shining, and the Iron Fox was waiting for a chance to jump into the lake to swim. Children saw the little Droppy and ran to draw it.

A little breeze blew, and the drop flew on… Where did it go this time?

POLAND

A small drop flew high into the sky. She looked down and saw another country. It was Poland. The wind carried her over rivers, mountains, and lakes. Suddenly, she joined the other drops and started falling down.

 “Do you know where I am? “ -she asked other drops.

“ You are lucky, It’s Kraków, a beautiful city in the south of Poland” . 

She was getting lower and lower.

Z góry widziała drzewa, plac zabaw i duże przedszkole.  W końcu wylądowała na parapecie. Spojrzała przez okno i zobaczyła… dzieci malujące deszcz. Mała kropelka  była bardzo zmęczona i chciała zakończyć swoją podróż.

Ale poczuła, że wiatr unosi ją coraz wyżej i wyżej…

CROATIA

                              Little drop story

   A little drop was floating above Croatia. The wind gently carried her over green hills, rivers and small towns. She was slowly coming down, curious to see where she would land.

    Below her she saw a beautiful city, Varaždin. There were old buildings, towers and quiet streets. In the distance, she noticed the Old Town - Stari grad, standing strong and proud. Everything looked calm and peaceful.

   Suddenly, the little drop landed softly on something yellow. It was not a leaf. It was not a flower. It was a child`s umbrella.

    From there, she could see everything. Children were walking, laughing ang playing in the rain. 

    Then a soft breeze blew....

and the drop slid down from the umbrella.

   She landed on a piece of paper. Colors begin to spread all around her. Children were painting with drops, blowing colores and making rain on paper.

   The little drop became part of their artwork. She was no longer just a drop...

she was a painting, a game and a story.

   And just when she thought her journey was over, the wind lifted her up again...

    Where will she go next?
