BeKids PlayGarden
Kita BeKids PlayGarden - German-Chinese Kindergarden
A bilingual German-Chinese kindergarten, welcoming children from 1 to 6 years old to join our warm and caring family!
BeKids PlayGarden is located in the historic and culturally rich Prenzlauer Berg district of Berlin, on the scenic and vibrant Rykestraße, near the famous Kollwitzplatz. Surrounded by lush greenery and spacious children’s playgrounds, our kindergarten provides children with daily opportunities to connect with nature and enjoy free play.
Our surrounding area offers a wealth of diverse learning resources, including children’s theaters, libraries, museums, organic markets, synagogues, schools, and specialty shops from around the world. These elements of everyday life extend learning beyond the classroom and help children immerse themselves in the real, diverse, and fascinating world.
At BeKids, we believe that play is the most natural and joyful way for children to learn. We create an open and engaging learning environment where play is integrated into the curriculum, allowing children to explore society and culture while naturally learning German and Chinese. Through learning, they discover joy, and through joy, they discover their true selves.
For us, BeKids is not just a kindergarten; it’s a second home where children can grow safely, explore freely, and truly thrive.
PLAYFUL SPACE
In our creative and discovery room, children experiment, trying out different possibilities to find answers, or create their unique works of art. In our child-friendly kitchen they get to know various ingredients and experience the joy of cooking and baking.
In our spacious sports room, kids can move and stretch freely to see how high they can climb, how far they can jump, or how they present themselves on stage. Here, we also greet each other in our morning circle, or hold our small conferences. Children learn how to participate in group activities, listen to others, or express their opinions.
In the dedicated area for role-playing game and building, our children play at being a chef, an architect, and other professional roles. There is also a quiet corner for reading for our little ones, where they can relax to music, discover picture books in different languages and, little by little, enjoy reading!
EXPLORATION GARDEN
Our – very own – garden lets our little adventurers experience and explore the elements of nature at their own pace. They can let loose in our sports and fun area, or help sow, tend, and reap in the vegetable garden. In the warmer months, exhausted little feet find some rest in the spacious shaded area.
