Palette of family talents
About beloved mothers - with warmth and tenderness. Children of metro construction workers took part in the sixth festival of creativity “Rainbow of Talents”.
“Mom” is the first and most important word in the life of each of us. For those who gave life, who love, in spite of everything, who do not sleep at night, who lull, console, help with advice and deed, who are always there - for all mothers and each one separately, on December 1, a festive concert took place on the stage of the assembly hall of the Administration. Children sang, danced, read poetry, demonstrated miracles of acrobatics - the program included almost three dozen different stage performances.
Veronica Tambovskaya was one of the first to speak, reciting the poem “The whole world begins with mother.”
Words of gratitude in poems by famous authors were also heard from Sofia Dolgova, Daria Goncharova, Matvey and Makar Lebedev, Sofia Malykhina, Maxim Tambovsky and Yulia Tokareva. Vladimir and Yulia Rubinchik spoke about supermom:
Everything is burning in mom’s hands —
Washing and cleaning.
Meters, liters, kilograms —
Everything gets in the way cleverly.
Without her we would be lost,
Like products without advertising.
And for this we called
Our mother is a “supermom”!
“I always knew that my mother could do everything: she worked, kept up with the housework, and followed our classes,” 13-year-old Yulia Rubinchik busily lists her mother’s accomplishments. The girl herself dances and learns tennis. Her brother, 11-year-old Vladimir, practices sambo and loves to recite poetry. The children’s father, Deputy Chief Engineer of TO-6 Dmitry Rubinchik, confirms: for their mother, children love to play the piano, draw postcards, and prepare creative acts.
Regular participants in the children's festival - the Sharokhin family - prepared an original performance this year. From the stage, Sofia and Alexander told everyone that their mother builds the metro, and creates drawings with their father, and knows how to cook, and draw, and teaches such adult magic to children. By the way, there are three of them in the family. The youngest, three-year-old Antonina, watched her older sister and brother, sitting on the lap of Natalya’s mother.
— We have creativity every day. Everyone wrote poems about mom, everyone added a little word. That’s how the lines came together,” laughs Natalya Sharokhina. — The eldest daughter Sophia is already trying to create stories. By the way, the younger children of metro construction workers did not stand aside. Five-year-old Ulyana Ulybysheva smartly sang “Oh, Mommy, on a sleigh” into the microphone... They didn’t let the little debutante go without a smile. Milada Bagautdinova, who performed a gymnastic number, also received thunderous applause.
“Before this there were only gyms, but here for the first time there is a big stage,” says her mother Yulia, hugging the girl to herself. “When my daughter found out that she could perform in front of an audience, she spent a long time preparing for the celebration. The excitement is strong, as is the responsibility. Not only mothers, but also fathers helped to cope with this.
Another young artist Yulia Popova performed the song “Mom is the best!” accompanied by parents.
“At the family council, they decided that since the text contains words for dad, he should go on stage,” shared TO-6 chief dispatcher Sergei Popov, Yulia’s father.
Gifts in the Popov family are creative and sporting. On her dad’s birthday, for example, her daughter won a medal at a rhythmic gymnastics competition.
Grandfather Frost also came to the Rainbow of Talents on the first day of December.
Together with him, all the children present in the hall made their wishes. And as a guarantee of their fulfillment, they received tangerines from a magic basket.
During the speeches, a non-childish topic was touched upon. Very difficult, but necessary in instilling patriotic feelings in the younger generation. In the mouths of children, stories about the defenders of the Motherland and its borders acquired a special poignancy and conveyed love for their Motherland and soldiers who, regardless of time and opportunity, show heroism and determination in achieving peace and justice. Sofia Malykhina conveyed through a poem what war and the loss of sons mean to a mother, bringing tears to the audience. The letters to the soldiers were addressed by Ekaterina Khokhlova, Timofey Malkov and Stepan Smirnov.
After such touching performances, it was difficult to hand over the microphone for lyrical numbers. Nevertheless, life goes on, and on Mother's Day the children continued to play the flute and sing in Russian and English about love for their parents. “To the moon and back” - even in a foreign language it is clear how a child loves his mother. Vladimir Litvin chose the song “Talking to the Moon” for his performance.
The guest of the festival was 18-year-old Alena Salova. She more than once became a participant in company celebrations. Now a local starlet, pop singer.
The sixth festival of children's creativity "Rainbow of Talents" ended with the awarding of children who participated in the art competition for Mother's Day. They were given memorable gifts.
— The children of Mosmetrostroy are the best! And they have the most wonderful mothers: smart, professional, loving,” said Oksana Menshina, Deputy General Director for Personnel Management and Corporate Relations of Mosmetrostroy JSC. — I wish everyone health, fulfillment of desires, happiness, love and new successes!
