Müll, Recycling und Upcycling

Sustainability in Daycare - Topic: Waste, Recycling, and Upcycling
A practical book with ideas for daycare and kindergarten

Can children learn, play, and live sustainably in daycare? Absolutely!
What matters are not just the big changes – from heating to solar power to building insulation, which the children often don’t even notice!
This booklet focuses on helping children understand the world sustainably and recognize nature as something worth protecting.

Using the example of "waste," children can concretely and realistically explore what sustainability means:
In this booklet, educators and daycare providers will find many exciting experiments and activities related to plastic, yellow bags/yellow bins, and all kinds of packaging.
Such ideas await you and the children in this booklet, along with DIY ideas like creating your own compost heap, a small snack garden that fits in a tiny corner or on a windowsill, and of course games, songs, sound experiences, and forest and supermarket safaris. Additionally, tips and ideas for daycare swap markets and repair workshops help children learn and live more sustainably.
