Kinderhütte Zug

About the Association

The Kinderhütte Zug association looks back on a long and rich history, having been in existence since 1973. Based at Haldenstrasse 3 in Zug, the association runs a playgroup for children aged between 21 months and the start of nursery school. In addition, we run the centre at Lüssiweg 17 in Zug, as well as a forest playgroup.
The quality and work of the association are officially recognised; the Kinderhütte has received a certificate of recognition from the City of Zug’s Department of Education for the years 2026 to 2029.

Under the motto ‘Growing up through play’, the association places the child, as an independent individual, at the centre of its work. The carers interact with the children as equals, offering them emotional security and a safe environment for healthy development.

The core objectives and principles include:

• Early childhood education rather than mere childcare: The playgroup sees itself as a place for development and learning, where children are prepared for nursery school in a harmonious way.
• Priority for free play: Giving free rein to children’s imagination and social interaction are the top priorities. Depending on their age, this is complemented by group activities such as drawing, craft work or singing.
• Holistic support: As a certified ‘Purzelbaum Playgroup’, we encourage children’s natural love of movement and ensure they have a healthy, balanced morning snack. In addition, in cooperation with ‘Wunderfitz und Redeblitz’, integrated, free German lessons are offered where required.

A qualified, certified and well-established team of long-serving staff accompany the little ones through the playgroup year with great dedication. Through regular annual professional development, the latest educational insights are constantly incorporated into our daily routine. This ensures that every child can grow up through play in a modern, safe and thoroughly loving environment.
