Yamal
2015-2016

«True people» (Nenei nenecha) – self-name of Nenets, the indigenous people of the Yamal peninsula, and the name of the complex 2015–2016 ethnographic expedition. Project participants and the visitors of the resource will be the part of the reindeer herders's family during the whole year just to «dive» in the casual life of the modern XXI century nomads.

 

In July and August kids spend a lot of time outside with herders near reindeer hers: they learn how to use lasso imitating adults, kill gad-flies or find another activities for themselves. Out kindergarden group lessons' topics this time are mostly related to summer. 

Here for example kids are showing paper cuts with summer flowers:
