Insights into our "Fuchsbau" daycare center

The 'Fuchsbau' is where the daycare children and the schoolchildren from the Kaltental elementary school meet. We support the children in their individual stages of development and offer various educational areas; children's library, writing workshop, research corner, role play area, building and construction area and creative area.

We encourage families to get to know each other through activities. This takes place through parties, the annual soccer tournament and our highlight - the annual family weekend.

The outdoor area - with swings, slide, water and mud playground - is used daily. Our nearby adventure playground with its three different high tree houses, a wobbly bridge with a crawling tunnel, climbing wall and nest swing offer a variety of exercise and nature experiences.

About our conceptual focus

We create learning situations in small groups in the areas of science, music, rhythm, language and movement (Hengstenberg movement construction site). We also regularly go to the Sonnenberg swimming pool and the elementary school gym.

Language is firmly anchored in everyday life. Rituals such as the table saying before meals or looking at picture books during quiet time serve as language stimuli. The specialist staff create reading situations and the school children regularly read to the daycare children.

We also work inclusively. This means that children with additional support needs are welcome here. Additional specialists support the child and accompany inclusion in the day-to-day life of the daycare center. We place great importance on supporting children in their individual educational and developmental processes in a way that is aware of prejudice.

In addition to this, we involve children in democratic processes. Children can have a say in everyday life. For example, children are encouraged to express themselves in the morning circle or they decide with whom they want to play and explore during the free play phase. We also take suggestions from the children on our regular excursions and explore the immediate and wider surroundings. This also leads to excursions on foot or by train to museums, parks or theaters.
