Mathematical education

At the Kinderhaus, mathematical education is promoted through games, puzzles and specific tasks. Children experience numbers and quantities in everyday life, for example when tidying up and getting dressed. The playful approach makes it possible to develop mathematical ways of thinking. The daily structure supports an understanding of order and regularity. In preparation for school, the children's engagement with numbers and quantities intensifies. Dice games, rules and special offers for pre-school children deepen mathematical understanding.

Health and cleanliness education in kindergarten and after-school care places a stronger focus on hygiene measures and includes practical exercises such as blowing the nose and using the toilet. A healthy diet is practiced on a daily basis, with an emphasis on eating very little sweets. There are also visits to the dentist in kindergarten. The daily routine includes sensible alternation between rest and exercise phases. Road safety education teaches how to assess dangers in road traffic and when dealing with strangers. There are also practical exercises on what to do in the event of a fire.

Media education

2023-12-14T15:30:11+01:00Mon. 27. November 2023|

In media education in kindergarten and after-school care, we attach great importance to introducing children to different media in a variety of ways, whereby digital media are not the main focus. Our focus is on traditional media such as books, radio plays (e.g. Tonies), music, art and theater. Children discover stories and sounds and thus develop their cognitive and auditory perception.

Art & Aesthetics

Art education in the Kinderhaus promotes the creative development of the children. They discover their ability to express themselves through painting, handicrafts and artistic projects. Aesthetics play a central role here, as children learn to perceive and shape their environment aesthetically. The artistic activities not only strengthen fine motor skills, but also promote self-development and aesthetic awareness.

Sport & exercise

2023-12-14T15:30:06+01:00Mon. 27. November 2023|

Sport and exercise in kindergarten promote children's physical development. In addition to weekly gymnastics activities and regular walks, ball games and excursions to nearby playgrounds are offered. The children also enjoy towel yoga and the exercise trail. These diverse activities not only strengthen motor skills, but also promote a sense of community and the joy of physical activity.

Music education

2023-12-14T15:30:05+01:00Mon. 27. November 2023|

Musical education in kindergarten promotes the holistic development of children. They discover their creative side by singing, making music, dancing and experimenting with sounds. Shared musical experiences strengthen the sense of community and social skills. Music is used as a form of expression to share emotions and support linguistic, motor and cognitive development. The kindergarten cooperates with the municipal music school and is a "MusiKita". The facility is thus taking a further step towards multifunctional teams with the support of external cooperation partners. This enables all children to participate in musical and cultural education at an early age.

Language education

The children's home provides holistic language and communication support. Through targeted activities, stories, songs, games and interactions, vocabulary, expression and social communication skills are encouraged. According to BayKiBig, a language assessment is carried out for children of foreign origin, followed by targeted language support. Language skills are emphasized as a key qualification, and a variety of activities such as reading aloud, finger plays, storytelling circles and book loans are offered. The facility takes into account the different language skills through individual support and works closely with parents to address special needs. Ongoing monitoring and documentation is carried out using SISMIK and SELDAK.

Environmental education

2023-12-14T15:30:48+01:00Mon. 27. November 2023|

Environmental education in kindergarten and after-school care promotes environmental awareness and responsibility. Through nature experiences, waste separation, sustainability projects, plant and animal encounters, children learn to treat the environment with respect. Practical projects, experiments and integration into everyday life raise awareness of global environmental issues and teach sustainable living principles. The aim is to promote environmentally friendly behavior from an early age and raise awareness of the need to protect nature.

Intercultural learning

2023-12-14T15:30:05+01:00Mon. 27. November 2023|

Every child is welcome in our house and is treated with respect. Intercultural education emphasizes that every person is unique and of equal value. Children learn about diversity as an enrichment, which becomes a normal experience in kindergarten and after-school care. Playing, learning and living together promote intercultural understanding and respect for diversity.

Values & Ethics

2023-12-14T15:30:48+01:00Mon. 27. November 2023|

The children's house promotes ethics and values through nature experiences, role-playing games and joint activities. In this way, children learn to respect other living beings and other people's property. Practicing polite and respectful manners makes it easier to live together in a civilized society. We value greetings, words like "thank you" and "please" and helpfulness. Participation, conflict resolution and respect characterize everyday life. The children receive help with conflicts and, depending on the situation, the topic is discussed in the whole group or in a small group and deepened with picture books, stories, games and conversations. Teachers serve as positive role models for social behavior, support self-development and strengthen children to become independent personalities.
