EDUCATIONAL ACTIVITIES

EDUCATIONAL MUSEUM WORKSHOPS
Permanent museum exhibitions serve as a basis for organising educational museum workshops in which school and pre-school children are made acquainted with museum items and after that they make objects by themselves. For example, as part of the permanent exhibition entitled From Grain to Bread a workshop was organised in which children made various objects from dough. Educational material is also provided in workshops.
     
     

GUIDED TOURS
Ever since the establishment of the Museum guided tours have been available for Croatian and foreign visitors alike. The curators guide the visitors through the following permanent exhibitions: The Birth-place of Josip Broz, Outhouse, Blacksmith's Shop, Life of a Blacksmith's Family, Shoeing, Cart-Wright's Trade, A Wedding in Zagorje, Life of a Newly Wed Couple, From Hemp to Canvas, Reconstruction and Renovation of the Staro Selo Museum, Ethnological Parks in Croatia, From Grain to Bread, Pottery, Viniculture, Gingerbread Trade, Traditional Wind-Instruments and Wooden Toys, The Old Elementary School, Life of a Zagorje Family, and Zagorska klet - Museum education workshop A kaj to diši? (What smells so?), where traditional sweets and beverages can be tasted. Special guided tours are available for temporary exhibitions held in the Museum's exhibition and gallery space.The programme of guided tours also includes the museum souvenir shop where original souvenirs from Zagorje - replicas of museum exhibits - can be obtained.
