THINGS THAT IMPRESS ME ABOUT KINDERGARTEN IN GERMANY🇩🇪 How Germany does things differently...

[@helfgott1]

Thank you Antoinette See I am much older so I faced much different Kindergarten in germany. Now you might not know that in my hometown kindergardens were run by nuns. AND.......They were the most caring lovely people i ever met. We were playing games, dancing, listened to stories, yepp at that time there was a strikt seperation between boys and girls....But when i had my first ever girl as a friend...they were twinkling their eyes give me a smack on the shoulder.....They knew...well we were quite innocent. This was way back in the 1960s I dont want to miss that time

[@johnmcnaught7453]

Very nice. I admire the way Germans approach education, especially the primary grades. Take Care.

[@hello_its_jo9951]

That’s so lovely to hear they got that book about different families in your KiTa. If you gave that out at primary school here in the UK you’d have a mob of angry religious parents at your neck… I’d like to think our school would be the one to defend diversity but can’t say I’ve seen examples like this one. Go German Kita 😊

[@gabrielasunrise3295]

As a family looking to move to Germany, I would love a video with some guidance on the process of getting your kids into daycare.

[@courtneymcwilliams6571]

Love the book!! Also love that they offer an integration course for kids. I’ll have mine take that once it’s time.

[@butenbremer1965]

My so ever beloved Antoinette! I am happy for you to being able to raise your wonderful children in a free and diverse world!! Imagine - just mentioning LGTQBIA+ forms of life is illegal in the US States of Missouri, Florida, and others surely more to come - Emilia, Matteo und Luca will be having the blasts of their lives growing up in GER and NZL! Thank you so much for taking them off your channel - privacy is king!

[@nitka711]

Hallo Antoinette I always liked and respected you and I am pleased to hear that you are open minded and loving regardless of anyones background or „life choices“. I thought you would be but it is always nice to see a confirmation! Your husbands parents are probably catholic, aren‘t they? I hope they are not like some of my polish family, but open minded too. Lots of love for you and your family. Pozdrowienia

[@veronikam3836]

Great that you love your kindergarten so much! However, the open concept can be a problem for some children. Some kids really need more structure - like eating at the same time, or being in the same group. So while it may work for some kids, it can be really challenging for others. Especially shy kids may get lost in the chaos. But great that Matteo likes it so much.

[@vbvideo1669]

Prima Video! :)

[@oechermaedche]

Based on the book I’m guessing Mateo is not in a catholic kindeegarten 😅 would be impossible in this type of Kita I believe. Very good idea from the Kita!

[@AntoinetteEmily]

His kindergarten is indeed catholic 😊

[@gweisa899]

So happy your son gets to experience diversity where you live at his school. Here US some of the school not as open want expose children to this topic.

Can you please tell me what are qualifications needed for a kindergarten teacher in germany?

Great video 😊 What is the title od the book? Thanks

[@sophieha7841]

What’s the name of the book the children were gifted? It sounds very interesting

[@AntoinetteEmily]

Here is a link to the book images.app.goo.gl/gQhPUzTNrzKYQPhA6 😊

[@beatrixpastoors1104]

@Antoinette Emily i looked at the book, but it only explains the patchwork family. The best book about family constellations and diversity seems to me to be the book "Das alles ist Familie" von Michael Engler. Finde ich super wie Kinder heutzutage informiert werden!

[@EllisBell]

❤️

[@hopewilliam-smith1894]

This sounds so interesting...is your son at a Montessori kindergarten? It sounds very similar if not!

[@beatrixpastoors1104]

Das war interessant. Wie lautet denn der Titel dieses Kinderbuches über diverse Familienformen? Wenn ihr das nächste Mal in Urlaub fliegt, habe ich auch eine Buchempfehlung für euch: "Stoffi, Mäh und Co" von Michaela Göhr. Übrigens störe ich mich nach wie vor, obwohl ich es schon mehrfach in englischsprachigen Videos gehört habe, an bestimmten Begriffen im Zusammenhang mit dem Kindergarten: kindergarten teacher und classes - das klingt für mich einfach total falsch, weil ein deutscher Kindergarten möglichst NICHTS mit einer Schule zu tun hat.

[@Lennroe]

Ich glaube halt nicht, dass es auf Englisch guten Begriff für Erzieher gibt. Also ein Wort dass man auch wirklich benutzt und die gleiche Bedeutung hat.

[@beatrixpastoors1104]

@@Lennroe ok, das könnte sein. In den USA heißt ja wohl das erste Jahr der primary school kindergarden. Nur ist unser deutscher Kindergarten bzw. die Kindertagesstätte etwas ganz Anderes. Falls das im Englischen die nursery school sein sollte, so störe ich mich auch hier in dem Begriff "Schule". Ich weiß auch inzwischen dass "Kurse belegen" auf englisch "to take classes" heißt. Umso unpassender finde ich deshalb das Wort "class" für eine Kindergartengruppe. Meistens werden die ja in D nicht nach Farben wie bei Antoinette, sondern nach Blumen oder Tieren benannt.

[@nitka711]

Hahaha das stört mich auch immer! Es klingt so seltsam und falsch. In den USA heißt Kindergarten übrigens Preschool und Vorschule heist kindergarden. Verwirrend.

[@Rainerjgs]

Thank you very much dear Antoinette for your many interesting contributions, but until now I have not heard anything from you about the important religious and spiritual upbringing of your children. Do you pray together, do you go to church services and how do your children's kindergartens and schools deal with it?

[@orangeguy3314]

Do you own a home with a large yard in germany? . As a child growing up in america. My parents owned a home with a large front and back yard. All the time as children. We would come together as a group and play in our yards with the parents watching. We also had dogs and cats. Adding to the fun experience as children. Large yards are common in america and good for children to get outdoors and play.

[@wora1111]

Nice, we were playing on the streets, in the meadows, at the creek or walked into the woods. But that was in the sixties. My kids usually ran to one of the playgrounds in the neighborhood.

[@orangeguy3314]

[@mattesrocket]

ich kann mir ein Kommentar zu homosexuellen oder anders individuellen Familien nicht verkneifen: ich wette, dass 99% der Leute, die dagegen schimpfen, keine einzige bzw. mehrere solcher Familien persönlich und näher kennen und nur in ihrer Vorstellung oder von Reportagen her etwas Negatives dabei entdecken. Dabei ist es ganz einfach: ja, in solchen Familien kann dies und das für Kinder nicht gut laufen. Aber ebenso oft läuft es schlecht für Kinder in "traditionellen" Familien. Am Ende kommt es einfach darauf an, ob alle in der Familie Liebe, Anerkennung, Respekt und Werte bekommen bzw. vermittelt bekommen. Und in jeder Familie (eben auch den traditionellen) und in jedem Leben gibt es Dinge, die nicht ausreichend vorhanden sind, wo dieses und jenes fehlt (z.B. fehlen in vielen Familien Großeltern), dann muss man eben das beste daraus machen und einfach dennoch so viel Gutes und Vielseitiges wie möglich den Kindern bieten. Und wer traditionelle Familienrollen am sinnvollsten findet, der soll und kann dies doch einfach intensiv so ausleben, Hauptsache alle in der Familie leben gerne ihre Rolle aus und alle erleben, dass die meisten ihrer Bedürfnisse erfüllt werden und alle Respekt bekommen und Schönes erleben. Außerdem ist SKvDM ODER WAS AUCH IMMER nur eine weitere Variante, wie man leben kann, die traditionelle Familie ist doch trotzdem ganz toll und nicht verachtet. Einzig Gewalt und Zwang und Starrsinn und Unterdrückung, Mobbing und Ausgrenzung, Vorurteile und Überheblichkeit etc. sollten verachtet werden. Frauen und Männer sind nicht gleich, aber gleichwertig.

Hi

[@yt-viewerfromger320]

Hallo Antoinette, mal was ganz anderes: Was hältst Du denn eigentlich von dem so überraschenden Rücktritt Eurer so jungen PM Jacinda Ardern. Kannst Du das, als manchmal auch recht gestresste Mutter von 3 keinen Kindern nachvollziehen..?

[@aaronz2781]

'PromoSM' 💘

[@Rainerjgs]

@lukaluka1214 Aber es geht doch hier immer auch um das Familienleben und die Kindererziehung und dabei spielt der Glaube, die religiöse Praxis und die Frömmigkeits-Erziehung der Kinder stets ein wichtige Rolle! Oder wie siehst Du das, wachsen Deine Kinder etwa ohne jeglichen Gottesbezug und spirituelle Praxis auf, die ja - wie vieles andere auch - in der Kindheit erst eingeübt werden muß, als gute Grundlage, für ein stabiles Gott- und Urvertrauen!

[@Rainerjgs]

Vielen dank liebe Antoinette für Deine vielen interessanten Beiträge, aber bis jetzt habe ich von Dir noch nichts über die so wichtige religiöse und spirituelle Erziehung Deiner Kinder gehört. Betet Ihrer zusammen, geht Ihr in Gottesdienst und wie halten es Kindergarten und Schule Euerer Kinder damit?

The advertisement is very annoying and you should be ashamed being willing to bring the message!

[@mattesrocket]

That's called "earning money". This ads are way better than on TV AND you don't need to watch it. Making videos costs time, ... she can make this video with ad and you can enjoy the content of her main topic or she has to take an ordinary job like xy some hours a day, which is barely possible with 3 kid when they are very young. That's the simple fact. Think a bit further. Every work, every type of earning money has some sides that are not only "brilliant". How do you earn your money for your family?

[@MS-ji3nl]

Why? Are you ashamed to warn money? Or die you mea nshe should be ashamed for talkimg about the book the kindergarden have the kids? That would be your Problem and your's alone. Love is love and family is family!

[@notabrand6283]

It can be both a good way for her to earn money and annoying to viewers. I think anyone can I agree that a more than 2 minute ad in a short video is too long and most viewers will just fast forward.

[@skvdm6808]

Forgot to mention…. I also have a multi cultural family, but, having 2 moms or 2 dads, is way too confusing for children in this very upside down world we live in. Procreation is confusing enough for kids the traditional way. Enough said.

[@Lennroe]

Of course it's confusing but it's important to introduce the concept to them, cause they will probably sooner or later meet a kid with two moms or two dads and you don't want other kids telling them there's something wrong with their family.

[@Patrick-on2ty]

verwirrend sind maximal diese Aussagen

[@fempton]

This is still not true.

[@newasblue1981]

Children have a far greater understanding of things than you give them credit for. Mostly importantly, children respond to love and that can be in the from a mom and dad, 2 moms, 2 dads, or a plethora of family makeups.

[@miridroge6043]

you should be a comedian... even netflix seems to accept homophobis and transphobic individuals in a way that sadly the Modern, progressive society cannot /s

[@skvdm6808]

I think it’s great that Matteo was shocked by the book. Interracial families are great. But, same sex families are not what the Creator of our universe intended for all humans. That is upsetting the balance of society.

[@ChrisTian-rm7zm]

I think there's just a very low percentage of same sex families. Nothing that can upset the balance of society.

[@AntoinetteEmily]

I believe the creator of our universe loves everyone equally and does not discriminate.

@lukaluka1214 But it's always about family life and raising children, and faith, religious practice and the piety education of the children always play an important role! Or how do you see it, your children grow up without any reference to God and without spiritual practice, which - like many other things - must first be practiced in childhood as a good basis for a stable trust in God and primal trust!
