Peace daycare center

The Frieden daycare center in Thale is located in the large residential area "Auf den Höhen", in the immediate vicinity of the elementary school and secondary school. The park-like open space of approx. 10,000 m² as well as the proximity to the forest offer the children plenty of space to move, discover and try things out.

We work according to the pedagogical concept of the situation-oriented approach. Perceiving situations, deciding on educational goals, designing projects, learning from experience and reflecting on our work are basic components of our daily work.

Successful language development is another key aspect of our work. We want to awaken a love of language and promote the ability to communicate and engage in dialog. Language is introduced to the children holistically and in all its possibilities, not detached or as a training unit. Children love the rhythm of rhymes, finger plays and counting rhymes. Looking at and reading books aloud, telling stories to each other, role-playing, singing, circle and movement games, working with hand and finger puppets, story boxes and much more are integrated into the daily work.

A special and central aspect of our language development work is the intensive early introduction of the English language. This is already visible in the entrance area of the daycare center, on pictograms in the rooms, on the weather calendar and much more.

Our children are introduced to the English language in a playful way. We read books in English, sing songs, learn table sayings, poems and games.

We also attach great importance to healthy eating. The children's groups can prepare meals together in a specially equipped children's kitchen and learn a lot about a balanced diet.
