Imagination development
If we were not given imagination by nature, there wouldn't be the finest works of art and scientific discoveries
The new program of the M.A. M. educational movement is aimed precisely at the development of this important mental process.
The purpose of the program is to stimulate the development of creative thinking of children, to promote the formation of the flexibility of behavior and the ability to find ways out of difficult situations.
To achieve this goal, we chose fairy-tale therapy as a method. During the meetings, we will work with both folk and specially selected authors' fairy tales that will help children see parallels between kind, strong, resourceful, creative, and persistent fairy tale characters and themselves.
Besides reading and discussing fairy tales, the program also includes games and exercises that stimulate the development of imagination and art therapy techniques.
Participation in the program՝
● the child will stimulate love and interest in fairy tales
● the ability to find inventive solutions in difficult situations, the flexibility of behavior will develop

* At the end of the program, parents will optionally receive a brief description of their child based on the current observations of the psychologist.

About the project
Providing quality education to children growing up in the Diaspora, strengthening ties with the Homeland and preserving the Armenian identity are more important than ever. The founders of the project, even in case of great desire, could not hide all the faith and enthusiasm they had for the newly developed project. And it was contagious. There was a great desire to be part of a project that will surely have deep roots and lush branches throughout Armenia and the Diaspora.
Message to students
Strengthen your decision to remain Armenian with this project. The main mission of the courses is to provide the necessary conditions for the formation and preservation of the Armenian identity of children living in the Diaspora. The best way to achieve that is education, self-recognition and patriotism. It is difficult to be identified with something that is not familiar and close to your heart. We want to introduce the children to Armenian and to create an emotional connection.
Why M.A.M
The development of the trainings took many months, the format and content were made up taking into account the age, psychological and cultural characteristics of the children. No text, game, exercise was chosen by chance. The teachers who made up the program have a rich pedagogical experience and a unique approach, which has allowed them to receive live, dynamic classes. Our approach is not strictly academic, but comes from the experience of working directly with children. Having, for example, a clear methodology for teaching letters, we also give professionals the freedom to create, to conduct interesting experiments, based on their individual style and pedagogical approaches.
