ABOUT THE CONTEST
With the aim of preserving the Croatian national identity, acquiring new skills and knowledge among children of pre-school and school age, and the development of linguistic competence and learning about Croatian cultural and traditional heritage, the Croatian Heritage Foundation, in collaboration with the Croatian School of Boston and the Croatian Studies Foundation of Sydney, is organising a contest for children and youth of Croatian extraction aged from 5 to 18. 
The contest theme is toys inspired by Croatian traditional culture, with sub-themes and creative forms (methods) designated in each category.
