Kita Globales Lernen e.V. at Kochschule Neun

Kochschule Neun regularly welcomes visits from a neighbouring daycare centre run by the Globales Lernen e.V. association. Together with the children, we go on an exciting journey of discovery through Markthalle Neun.

There is a lot to see and learn as they stroll through the aisles of the market hall: the children watch the baker moulding bread, look over the shoulder of the greengrocer as she delivers fresh produce or taste juicy, seasonal fruit. They ask curious questions such as: ‘How is bread actually made?’, ‘Why are the vegetables sometimes so crooked?’ or ‘How do the apples get into the hall?’

These visits not only provide children with sensory experiences, but also give them an initial introduction to important topics relating to the origin of food, sustainability and the conscious handling of food. They are encouraged to discover their environment and the diversity of food in a playful way and with all their senses.

Such collaborations with educational institutions such as Kita Globales Lernen e.V. are an important part of the work of Kochschule Neun. They show how early childhood education and practical nutrition education can go hand in hand to lay the foundations for sustainable awareness.
