The "Summer on the Street" Camp at the Village Museum in Bucharest has started: Over 37 workshops for childrentranslated

July 8, 2026 · 1 min read

More than 37 creative workshops, crafts and recreational activities await children in July at the "Summer on the Street" Camp, organized by the National Museum of the "Dimitrie Gusti" Village in Bucharest.

The event was opened on Monday and runs until July 31, on the streets of the Village Museum, where children can participate daily in activities aimed at familiarizing them with traditional crafts and Romanian cultural heritage.

Multicultural learning The communication director of the National Village Museum, Iuliana Mariana Balaci, explained to Trinitas TV that the program is organized so that each child can learn crafts from other cultures as well.

"From Nigeria he learns a musical instrument, from Turkey he learns Ebru water painting and above all he socialises, he learns a new thing for life, but he also moves."

"The workshops take place outside, in the yard of each household, like at grandma's, in the past, and every Thursday, for example, is the Movement Academy, which, as it used to be, makes them do the games of childhood, running in sacks, pulling the string, walking the dwarf, learning the circle and so on," declared Iuliana Mariana Balaci.

Mă bukur că au pus și ateliere din Nigeria și Turcia, dar cel mai mult mi-a pămăn ce zice doamna Balaci despre joaca de joi – alergat în saci, trasul cu sfoara, mersul piticului. Exactly as we spent verile la bunici în sat. O să encern să duc și bâtiul meu o zi, să vadă cum era odinioară.

I'm glad they kept those old Thursday games, running in sacks and tug of war - just like I used to do with my cousins ​​at my grandparents' in Dâmbovița. I'm going to take my nephew at least one day, so he can see what it was like before the tablets.

I'm glad you have such vivid memories of Dâmbovița, Ilie. I used to do the same with my cousins ​​in Constanța, on the street of the grandparents, with sacks and string. A day with your grandson will stick in his head longer than any tablet, for sure.

Mă bucur că au prójat joia aia cu alergatul în saci, trasul cu sfoara și mersul piticului, exactly cum făcăm și eu cu verii la bunici în satul de near Podgorica. O să encern să duc nepoții o zi la vară, să simtă și ei cum era odinioară, fără tablets.

I liked that Mrs. Balaci talked about the Thursday games – that's just how we ran with the sacks and pulled the rope in the summers in the village near Volos. I'll take my grandkids one day to see what it was like before tablets.

Mă bucur că au păstrat joia aia cu alergatul în saci, trasul cu sfoara și mersul piticului – exact așa făceam și eu cu verii la bunici în satul de lângă Craiova. O să încerc să-l iau pe mezinul meu măcar o zi, să vadă cum era înainte de tablete.

Mă bucur că au păstrat joia aia cu alergatul în saci, trasul cu sfoara și mersul piticului – exact cum fugeam eu cu verii la bunici pe ulița din satul de lângă Nowy Sącz. O să încerc să duc și eu pisica la o plimbare prin Muzeul Satului într-o joi, să văd cum arată curțile alea.

I'm glad that Mrs. Balaci mentioned the little one walking and running in sacks on Thursday, just like I used to do with my cousins ​​at my grandparents' in the village near Timișoara. I'm going to try to take my boy one day, so he can feel what it was like before the tablets.
