The transition from care by a close caregiver in a familiar environment to care in a kindergarten is a big step for children. In order to be able to cope successfully with this special stage, a gentle acclimatization, in which the joint participation of child, caregiver and pedagogical specialist is taken into account, is very important to us.
In language education in our kindergarten, we are guided by the children's life experience and take into account the life situations of the families. We understand language education to be integrated into everyday life. In doing so, we use the numerous everyday situations for a systematic promotion of language development and thus orient ourselves to the resources and interests of the children.
We consider preschool education to be holistic and build on the children's world of experience. It begins as soon as the child enters kindergarten and offers different focuses and learning objectives according to age. In order to make the transition from kindergarten to school a smooth one for the preschool children, we offer a variety of preschool activities in the last year of kindergarten before they start school.
The variety of sensory perceptions through music and design offers the children stimulation and encouragement in everyday life as well as the opportunity to express themselves creatively and imaginatively. We give them freedom, space and time for this. With openness, courage for new things and their own ideas, they can give free rein to their creativity and develop it further.
With curiosity and a love of discovery, every child perceives and gets to know its environment and its body. In order to act out their urge to move and to test their bodies, we offer them many opportunities with different movement possibilities in everyday life. To this end, we offer activities in which various skills, such as gross motor skills, fine motor skills, balance, etc. are strengthened.
