Kinderfreunde Kindergarten
Educational Profile & Description
Short Description
The Kinderfreunde Kindergarten at Praterstern in Vienna-Leopoldstadt offers an exciting MINT education for children up to 6 years old. With the "TIMI's MINI MINTS" concept, we playfully promote mathematics, computer science, natural sciences, and technology.
Kindergarten Vienna
As a kindergarten close to ÖBB operations, we primarily offer spots for children of ÖBB employees, but external children are also warmly welcomed. Our kindergarten is a place where children can research and discover independently. We provide a rich learning environment with diverse experimental and construction materials.
About this Kindergarten
In our kindergarten, we place great importance on individual support. Children can experiment with marble runs, magnetic games, and various building blocks. We also have test tubes, measuring cups, and magnifying glasses to explore everyday phenomena. Our goal is to spark children's curiosity and encourage them to ask questions and find answers. Additionally, we use animal-assisted pedagogy with giant African snails, helping children develop responsibility and empathy.
Languages
In our kindergarten, we speak German. We also offer English as an external language to provide early language support for children.
Educational Approach
Our educational approach is based on the idea of independent learning. We encourage children in their curiosity and creativity by giving them the freedom to pursue their own interests. Through projects and experiments, children learn to solve problems and think critically. We operate under a child protection concept to ensure a safe environment.
What Parents Say
According to Google reviews, parents particularly appreciate the individual support and friendly atmosphere in the kindergarten. Many highlight that their children enjoy going to the kindergarten and learn a lot.
Additional Information
