As a child we were so intrigued while we watched The Jungle Book, and we always wished to grow up in a forest, didn't we?
A school in Germany does just that! Many German kids studying in preschool in the middle of the forest called the 'WALDKINDERGARTEN' or 'FOREST KINDERGARTEN' where they study, eat and take a nap out in the forest, even their favourite toys are tools like fire and knives. The students are taught to live in the forest in all seasons, whether it is rain, sunny summers or chilly winters.
With more than 1,000 WALDKINDERGARTENS in Germany and Switzerland, the schools allows children to explore, survive and develop all their senses and concentration with exuberant experiences, and discover their own strengths and weaknesses, simultaneously working on them.
Check out the school that is ALWAYS OUTSIDE!
