Children's crossing in Slovenia

Portoroz, VII.1998; pict. P. Geers Poland
 
Children: always full of energy, running, jumping, enjoying life. Lovely, isn't it? But - Yes, I know, I'm becoming predictable. - I will now ruin the happy feeling.

The drawing is far from perfect. Upper and lower leg are out of proportion. This children will never reach the beach —Portoroz is a seaside resort— because they are planted. (or perhaps rehearsing some folk-dance).

We've found a similar children's crossing in Poland where the girl got a slightly different hairdress.

We learn from more recent finds that Slovenia made the decision to join the Mediterranean club. Road signs like the specimen from Izola are found in many countries around the Mediterranean Sea —See Malta for a discussion of the decisive features.

The last picture is an example of a common way of seeding a roadsign with some lightness: Children love to play. Let's play with the sign. The same recipe is known in many countries: e.g. Denmark and Bulgaria.
