With the guidance of a clear and authentic educator, the child imitates and learns how to express himself and show himself to the world through free play. With a consistent and timely rhythm of the day, as well as the week, following the rhythms of nature and its change, the child gains security and develops a sense of confidence in the world around him.
In free play, the child spontaneously expresses his or her experiences from the immediate environment. Through guided activities, which are quite meaningful and vital, the child has the opportunity to learn about life. Through artistic activities, the child fulfills and develops his imagination, and movement and speech are perfected through finger games and gesture circuits.
By celebrating the festivities, the annual rhythm is followed, and through activities related to their preparation and celebration, the child encounters his own culture and heritage, thus gaining a sense of identity and belonging.
In addition, the child participates in the preparation of organic, unrefined food and eats healthy and fresh so that he can actively learn about the world around him through all his senses.
Reciprocal communication is important to both educators and parents for a common understanding of children. It is important that parents know how their child learns and grows, and that they support this work at home with the appropriate atmosphere.
Cooperation with parents is realized in different ways: through parent meetings, individual consultations, visits of parents to crafts and involvement in holiday celebrations, group trips etc.
Parents also have a chance to improve their parenting and pedagogical competencies through seminars held from international experts and practical workshops.
The involvement of the parents gives the child an additional feeling of security and warmth in his "kindergarten family".
The doors of "Iskrica" are open from Monday to Friday from 7 am to 4.30 pm.
