About us Program Our kindergartens Cadregallerycontact Parent zone Send Home Natural and cognitive profile Natural and cognitive profile All children are characterized by cognitive curiosity about the surrounding reality. It is a natural need for every child to see, hear and feel more! The nature-cognitive program refers to the child's innate curiosity and willingness to explore the world. We encourage you to ask questions, answer these questions and motivate children to show their own inventiveness. During the implementation of the program, the talents and interests of the children are developed. Children often decide for themselves what and how they will do it, and we focus on creating an atmosphere conducive to creative development. Elements of our nature and cognitive program: • Four Seasons Classes carried out according to our original idea. During the year-long activities, children observe the surrounding nature, conducting independent observations of various elements of nature (e.g. a selected plant). Some children make a sundial and keep a weather calendar in the following seasons, others create nature collections (herbariums, collections of shells, feathers, seeds, rocks, etc.). The teacher is only an inspirer and an observer. The aim of the program is to awaken and strengthen cognitive passion and independence in thinking, acting and reaching knowledge. Thanks to the year-long activities, children learn to observe, be mindful, develop the ability to analyze and reason, become open to new ideas. • Animal caretaker Animal husbandry is a beloved by children and an extremely developing activity. A pet lives in every Forest Kindergarten. Caring for a pet is accompanied by talks about the habits of animals and their care. Children create illustrated "animal files" based on literature and their own observations. Thanks to caring for an animal, children learn to be systematic, empathetic and responsible for the entrusted task. These contacts are conducive to tranquility and relaxation. • Little naturalist Passionate experiments in the rooms and "detective" activities in the field: tracking plants, insects, snails, earthworms and birds, carried out according to the program of Katarzyna Gawlik. During the classes in kindergarten, children perform experiments on their own, they examine the influence of light, soil and air on the development of plants. They grow salt crystals, study the color and innervation of the leaves, and create "clouds in a bottle". The main goal of the course is to strengthen the child's cognitive attitudes and to strengthen their research passion. During the classes, we also develop independence in reaching knowledge and educate the sense of observation and sensitivity to the environment. • Painted by nature Nature art workshops. During the classes, children create artworks using previously collected leaves, feathers, stems, tree and stone bark, chestnuts, and acorns. The form and content are inspired by nature. At the same time, children learn and use various art techniques, such as: painting, collage graphics. The lack of imposed topics for the work means that the classes encourage creativity and help to maintain individualism. Each job is unique and cannot be compared to any peer job.
