Sustainability

It is close to our hearts as Kindergarten Pusteblume to teach the children a responsible and mindful approach to our world. For us, it is very important to teach them to treat people, animals and nature with respect on their way to adulthood.

Through various offers in our daycare center, we want to support the children in growing up to be responsible, reflective and informed people.

In our everyday life and in various projects we pay attention to this by:

• making different natural conditions tangible for humans and animals (e.g. flower meadow for insects, natural environment...)
• growing vegetables and herbs, taking care of them, watching them grow, harvesting and preparing them
• use nature as an inspiration and resource for sensory experiences and our creativity
• be mindful of the consumption of animal foods (in moderation and consciously)
• buy food regionally and conscientiously (e.g. eggs from the farmer, meat from the butcher, reduce packaging/waste...)
• be mindful of other living creatures by feeding the animals in winter
• regularly going out into the fresh air (outdoor area, trips to nature...)
• act as a role model for all children
• create experiential spaces in which all children can discover the diversity of creation
