However, the joy of the children playing in this park today, the happiness in their eyes, tells us that we have carried out a meaningful project.”

Kindergarten administrators and families thanked TİKA and Türkiye for the children’s playground, which met a significant need. For the children playing freely in the park, activities such as animation shows, face painting, and balloon twisting were organized.
