Activities to Play and Discover
Each week, the team chooses a theme that guides the morning activities. Painting, crafts, sensory activities, psychomotricity, songs, stories, role plays, and dance provide varied opportunities for children to explore, create, and express themselves.
A special place is also given to culinary workshops, regularly offered to the children. These moments allow them to engage in a hands-on activity related to cooking, handle, observe, and discover food in a new way. They also provide a chance to do things together, experiment, and participate in an activity different from what's usually offered.
In addition to these activity times, there are moments of free play, which allow each child to choose what attracts them, find their bearings, and explore at their own pace during the day.
Get some fresh air and leave the crèche
The children regularly enjoy outdoor moments and outings that allow them to discover their environment differently. Depending on the occasion, they may visit the village, the forest, or engage in special outings, like a trip to the Parc Merveilleux or the educational farm.
The educational farm, in particular, provides an opportunity to step outside the usual crèche setting and experience something different, closer to animals and nature. These moments allow children to observe, discover new environments, and spark their curiosity through hands-on experiences.
These outings complement the activities offered at the crèche and give children a chance to explore, move, and share new moments with their group.
Depending on the destination and the age of the children, journeys can be made by stroller, public transport, or with the crèche's vehicle.
Essential times of the day
Meals and rest times are part of the milestones that pace the children's day.
Meals are delivered fresh by the local caterer Food 4 Kids, with 45% of organic products, and a vegetarian option can also be offered.
Sleep times are respected according to each child's needs, to preserve individual rhythms and the balance of the day.
The idea here is simply to show that these moments are considered with care, without revisiting the entire pedagogical approach to rhythm.
Regular connection with families
Interactions with parents also accompany the daily life of the crèche. Arrival and departure times allow sharing important information about the child and maintaining a regular connection with the team.
Kidola complements these exchanges by facilitating the sharing of information with families.
A structure committed to early childhood
Butzen Schlass is a member of the FELSEA, the Luxembourg Federation of Education and Care Services for children.
This commitment supports the crèche in keeping up with the practices and developments of the early childhood sector in Luxembourg.
The crèche also accepts the Childcare Service Voucher (CSA).
Before a first visit, some guidelines help better prepare for your child's welcome.
Come Discover Butzen Schlass
A visit is the best way to discover the crèche, its spaces, and the people who will accompany your child daily.
You can explore the different rooms, discover the garden, and chat with the team about your child's habits and needs.
Days adapted to each child's pace
At Butzen Schlass, the days are structured around different activities: games, activities, meals, rest, group time, and outdoor exploration. The team is careful to respect each child's individual pace and adapts the support provided to their age and needs.
Not all children experience their day in the same way. Younger children need more rest time, while older children can participate in other types of activities or discoveries.
The key is to offer a reassuring framework, with regular reference points and enough flexibility to respect everyone's habits.
