Christmas magic for our little ones

Kids, where do your moms and dads work? The question will not always get the 4-year-olds interested (or 11-year-olds, for that matter), and the idea of visiting their parent's workplace might not excite them much. Unless you bring in a Santa magician, some Christmas lighting and decor, a face painting artist, and other things that make a workplace look more like a theatre or a party site.

It's exactly what we like to do around Christmas time at our headquarters in Varaždin. This year we’ve put up a Christmas show for 46 children. It featured an interactive performance with magic and tricks, animal balloon prizes, and the painting of Spiderman, butterflies, and other masterpieces all over the kids’ faces.

We made sure there was a bag full of gifts, too. Grant it, if you get them to such a party, you better don’t let them leave empty-handed. In the end, our Christmas gathering on December 10 was just as we had hoped it would be – full of laughs and joy, and a sense of togetherness. Merry Christmas, everyone!
