Competition for grandmothers

and grandchildren

Dear guys and respected adult comrades. We are pleased to welcome you to the Babusya 2013 competition.

Mom has work. Dad has work. They still have Saturday for the children. And grandma is always at home. She never scolds you. He will sit you down, feed you, but don’t rush. What happened to you, tell me? I say, but grandma doesn’t interrupt, she sits, grain by grain, sorting out the buckwheat. We feel good, just the two of us... Without grandma, what kind of house is it?!

Grandmother, granny, granny - what a beautiful, affectionate, what a gentle word. They bring peace, comfort and warmth to the house. You can’t stop listening to their amazing stories and fairy tales. There is so much love and affection, tenderness and kindness in them. Their hard work and patience can be admired. And what wonderful things grandmother’s hands can do.

I have been friends with my grandmother for a long time. She is at the same time with me in all my undertakings. I don't know boredom with her. I like everything about her. But I love my grandmother’s hands most of all. Oh, how many wonderful things these hands do! Now they tear, now they sew, now they mark, now they make something. The toast is so deliciously fried, the poppy seeds are sprinkled so thickly. They rub the steps so roughly, caress them so tenderly.

These are exactly the kind of kind and affectionate, sensitive and gentle grandmothers who came to us today. In order to get to know the participants of our competition better, we invite you to an exhibition of portraits. And the little participants will be the guides. They will tell us about their grandmothers, this is the first task of our competition.
