## Resource

How much learning happens through play — and how much school readiness should kindergarten provide? The Fröbel approach is built around free discovery and child-led learning, even as pressure grows on early childhood education to prepare children earlier and more academically. We speak with Lucie Maucher and Katarina Barker from the Fröbel Early Learning Centre in Sydney about educational philosophy, social expectations and the realities of everyday kindergarten life. - Wie viel Lernen steckt im Spielen – und wie viel Schule verträgt der Kindergarten? Der Fröbel-Ansatz setzt auf freies Entdecken und kindgeleitetes Lernen, doch der Druck auf frühkindliche Bildungseinrichtungen wächst. Ein Gespräch mit Lucie Maucher und Katarina Barker vom Fröbel Early Learning Centre in Sydney über pädagogische Konzepte, gesellschaftlichen Erwartungen und den Alltag im Kindergarten.
