In Chile, where Croats began arriving in search of work in the second half of the 19th century, approximately 200,000 people of Croatian descent live today. The Croatian-Chilean cultural association 'Domovina' is organizing a family event called 'Igraonica' in Santiago, aimed at introducing children to Croatian culture, language, and traditions through games, music, and workshops. The event includes folk dance and singing sessions, basic Croatian vocabulary lessons, and art activities such as painting Croatian hearts and traditional symbols. It also features puppet shows and a children’s version of Bingo to teach numbers and animal names in Croatian. The event is open to all families, regardless of their heritage, and provides spaces for quieter activities and crafts like decorating canvas bags with Croatian motifs, decorating cookies, and making bracelets.
