Since ancient times, people beckoned all inaccessible and mysterious. Without a doubt the most elusive of all that surrounds them, a space. And so, the sun, moon and stars always attracted their views and soul. They were forced to dream to think and love. Since then people have changed a lot. They are more attracted by the tv screen. And the time to admire the stars, more often not to be.
People have forgotten how to wonder and enjoy simple and at the same time brilliant things: snowflakes, the first spring grass, a butterfly, fluttering from flower to flower. Stars, constellations and even entire galaxies. But it's all about us – adults. Children, like the ancient people are merging with nature, and because everything that surrounds them, seems to them so the family and fun. Even the smallest blade of grass draws their attention.

Children understand only what he can see, hear, touch, smell, taste.
