About this program

Nature Kindergarten – Jugendfarmverein Möhringen-Vaihingen e.V. is an outdoor-based early childhood program situated on the City Farm in Möhringen. Unlike traditional kindergartens, it forgoes a conventional building and instead offers children the opportunity to play and learn outside year-round, surrounded by animals and nature. Children spend three years entirely outdoors, experiencing the changing seasons in a dedicated, quiet corner of the farm equipped with wooden 'shepherd's hut' styled wagons. The program seeks to foster children's physical and psychological development through hands-on contact with natural elements such as water, earth, fire, animals, and plants. The kindergarten's environment is intentionally free from the distractions of excessive toys and the fast-paced adult world, offering a tactile, child-friendly space designed for creativity, exploration, and self-discovery.
