Aim of this thesis is to explore and record all the traditional games, songs and practices that our ancestors in Zlatar came up with and to encourage people to recall these hard, but also joyfull childhood times. One of the aims of the thesis is registry and preservation of traditional children's games, songs and practices in small town of Zlatar. Each town, region and county in Croatia has its own festivities, traditions, songs, games and myths specific for that area. This thesis will be exclusively presenting Zlatar, a town situated in Krapina- Zagorje County. Hypothesis for this thesis was that in previous times there was not that many toys for children to play with, unlike for children these days. Therefore, they had more time to socialize with eachother and come up with new games to fill their days with. Town of Zlatar is located in Hrvatsko Zagorje. Geographically, it is known for being situated on a hilly area in which there is a lot of agricultural territories. Because of that, the area was always very rural and therefore, it is known that the children have helped their parents with farming and house chores from the early ages. More often then any other chore they would be working with animals on the farm. Children would there often socialize and play with eachother. In the early morning, all the children from the town would gather around, along with cows or turkeys on pasture and the most imaginative games would come up to them. These great ideas would then be passed down trough generations. Besides, children would also make different wooden tools and objects which, for some of them, would be the only toys they had. It is also known that these wooden toys are very popular to this day and are also presented and preserved in museums in Zagorje. Aim of thesis is to explore and record all of these traditional games, songs and practices that our ancestors in Zlatar came up with and to encourage people to recall these hard, but also joyfully childhood times.
