Bokcheon Museum Launches “Bokcheon Dream Playground” Educational Program for Preschoolers

내용

Bokcheon Museum (hereinafter “the Museum”) announced that it will launch a new educational program, “Bokcheon Dream Playground,” for groups of preschoolers aged 6 to 7 from kindergartens and daycare centers starting this October.

“Bokcheon Dream Playground” is a customized experiential program designed for young children, based on important artifacts excavated from the Bokcheon-dong Ancient Tombs, a representative Gaya archaeological site in Busan. This year, the program focuses on the gilt-bronze crown (designated Treasure) as one of the nationally recognized cultural heritages.

The detailed curriculum includes:

• ●A storytelling session based on the gilt-bronze crown (excavated from Bokcheon-dong Tombs Nos. 10 and 11, Treasure),

• ●An activity comparing different types of crowns, and

• ●A hands-on experience making a crown.

All activities are designed in connection with the 2019 revised Nuri Curriculum, tailored to developmental stages of preschoolers, so that participants can gain both educational benefits and the joy of experience.

Through storytelling related to artifacts, comparative observation of examples, and direct crafting and decorating processes, children will be able to deepen their interest and understanding of cultural heritage while also cultivating creativity and expressive skills.

The program will be held twice a day on Fridays during the 3rd and 4th weeks of October and November. The first session starts at 10:30 a.m. and the second at 11:30 a.m., with each lasting 50 minutes. The maximum number of participants is 25 per session, and admission is free.

Applications open at 10:00 a.m. on September 22 through the Bokcheon Museum website (museum.busan.go.kr/bokcheon) and will close once capacity is reached on a first-come, first-served basis.

Seong Hyun-joo, Director of Bokcheon Museum, stated, “This program was planned to foster children’s interest in our history and culture from an early age through customized museum education suited to developmental stages. Going forward, we will continue to develop and operate creative and meaningful educational programs for a wide range of age groups, so that Bokcheon Museum can faithfully serve as a hub for cultural education in the local community.”
