Active nurseries

Growing up healthy and active

Together with the German Sports Youth (dsj), we are pursuing the goal of enabling children to be more active. To this end, we developed the framework concept “Kitas in Bewegung” (daycare centres in motion), which supports sports clubs and other organizations in setting up physical activity daycare centres. The framework concept contains measurable quality criteria that help to make daycare centers more active.
