We are pleased to invite early childhood educators to our professional development day “Children, Nature & Exploration – Practical Ideas for Early Childhood Education Centers”
How can children discover, explore, and understand nature in urban environments? This key question lies at the heart of our professional development day. We offer hands-on workshops, inspiring input sessions, and a wide range of ideas for inquiry-based learning in nature. You will have the opportunity to actively participate, try out your own ideas, and exchange experiences with fellow professionals.
The event is aimed at early childhood educators, students and trainees in early childhood education programs, as well as anyone interested in supporting children’s curiosity and joy of discovery. You will gain practical ideas that can be implemented directly in your daily work at your early childhood education center and have the chance to build valuable professional connections.
We look forward to welcoming you and spending an inspiring day full of discovery, exchange, and practical ideas with you.
