On October 23, 2018, students of the Karaganda State Industrial University visited the Excursion to Childhood exhibition organized by the local history museum of Temirtau, timed to the Day of our city.

For the display of this exhibition, the museum staff prepared for six months. In the spring, an action was announced on the theme “The childhood of our grandmothers” and six months later, collecting exhibits and conducting scientific work, the museum workers opened a unique exhibition

Thanks to the residents of our city, we managed to collect about a hundred different exhibits, ranging from drawings, photographs, soft toys and board games, to puzzles, dolls, as well as various attributes of street games. The age of the presented items at the exhibition is completely different, they are dated from the fifties of the last century to the present days.

The exhibition reflected three zones. This is a zone dedicated to board games, a zone-installation “Grandma’s Cabinet”, which tells about where the children were hiding, which is fraught with riddles and fears of different generations and a zone of yard hobbies.

Visitors to the exhibition could not only remember their childhood, but also read the stories of Temirtau  people associated with one or another toy from the exhibition.

Our students noted that each of them was able to find things from his childhood at the exhibition.

In addition, museum workers recommend visiting this exhibition to young residents of the city in order to find out how and what their mothers, fathers, grandmothers and grandfathers used to have fun with and in their childhood.

Citizens will be able to see all this with their own eyes for a month, until the end of November of the current year.
