  • On December 4th, our colleagues and their children gathered to enjoy kids play: The Happy Little House at the City Puppet Theatre in Rijeka. This rhyming monodrama, inspired by a true story, celebrates Croatia’s smallest library, founded in 1936 in Kuti (Gorski kotar). 🎭 The play emphasized the power of books, the joy of reading, and the importance of community and determination. After the play, Santa Claus surprised the kids with gifts, and a photographer was there to capture every precious moment, making it a night to remember. 🎁 This evening was a wonderful way to start the celebration of the holiday season and inspire younger generations. Thank you to everyone who helped make it happen! 🎄 #HolidaySeason #Community #KidsPlay #TheHappyLittleHouse
