‘Forest kindergartens’ are a growing phenomenon in Czechia, offering children aged 3-6 educational and fun activities, and plenty of fresh air. One such kindergarten has recently opened close to the town of Litoměřice.

While the first such school was established in Denmark in the 1950s, they are a much more recent innovation in Czechia, with the first “forest kindergarten” only set up in 2010 in the Prague district of Hostivař.
