Wissenswertes zum Verein
Liebe Eltern und Interessierte!
In 1969, some committed parents founded the association "Elterngruppe für freie Kindererziehung eV" - EffKeV for short.
The city of Oberursel provided the association with premises where parents with their toddlers and other parents could meet.
A lot has happened since then.
The VillaWald grounds, now 2000 square meters in size, give us the opportunity for future planning to open VillaWald for projects, encounters, environmental learning, nature activities, holiday programs, etc.
Would you like to support us with a membership or donation ? Do you have ideas, or are you looking for a venue for projects and activities that align with our focus (education, nature and environmental learning)? Get in touch !
Vereinsgeschichte
In 1969, some committed parents founded the association "Parents' Group for Free Child Education eV (EffK eV)".
The city of Oberursel provided the association with premises where parents with their toddlers and other parents could meet.
We founded the " Kindervilla Kunterbunt " (Children's Villa Kunterbunt), a well-known childcare facility for children under three.
Much has happened in the following years:
Historie
1969
Founding
In 1969, some committed parents founded the association "Parents' Group for Free Child Education eV (EffK eV)".
2011
Relocation to Schmiedstraße
In 2011, we found new premises on Schmiedstraße in Oberursel-Oberstedten. There, we continuously expanded the concept, implementation, and facilities of Kindervilla Kunterbunt. Kindervilla Kunterbunt also offers rooms for baby massage courses, mother-child classes, and projects. In addition, three childminders now care for 10 children aged 1-3 years at Kindervilla Kunterbunt.
In all den Jahren gab es vermehrt Eltern, die sich beim Abschied ihrer Kinder aus der U3 Betreuung wünschten, dass es mit ihren Kindern in einem Waldkindergarten weitergehen könnte
2020
Opening of VillaWald
Since October 2020, the association "Elterngruppe für freie Kindererziehung eV" (Parents' Group for Free Child Education) has been able to realize this large kindergarten project with the generous support of the city of Oberursel and other sponsors. The association has opened the " VillaWald" nature and forest kindergarten . Currently, 20 children from age 3 until they start school enjoy their kindergarten paradise there, spread across 1000 square meters.
2023
VillaWald shelter
In July 2023, we were able to open our own safe space at the Kindervilla Kunterbunt. Now VillaWald has a safe space and a beautiful room for the daily freshly cooked organic lunch.
2023
VillaWald expansion
Also in 2023, we were able to expand VillaWald by another 1000 square meters, bringing the total area to 2000 square meters. This now gives us the opportunity to plan for the future, opening VillaWald to projects, gatherings, environmental education, nature-based activities, holiday programs, and similar events.
