If children don’t believe in elves, we simply say it’s a game.The elves will transform the houses so there’s holiday magic from the very first weekday in December.In Blåbærhuset, the elves won’t move in until the children have decorated – that happens in the last week of November.Please allow a little extra time for drop-off on December 1st.Art Exhibition and Open HouseWe’re excited to invite you to our art exhibition and open house at Tyttebærhuset:The opening for family and friends will be Thursday, November 20th, from 3:30 to 5:00 PM.Open house for everyone will be Friday, November 21st, from 1:30 to 4:00 PM.It all takes place in Troldestuen at Julsøvej 118 in Silkeborg.Come and see the children’s artwork, learn about their creative process, and enjoy a tour of the building, which has been a school, a youth center, and, since 1992, a kindergarten.SummaryBefore we wrap up, just a quick reminder of what’s coming up.

English:New ChildrenFirst, a warm welcome to Valdemar, who has joined Group 1. We’re so happy to have you with us!We’re also delighted to welcome Christiane, who has joined us as a temporary assistant from September 18th through December 31st.

Parents of children in Group 3 should contact Elizabeth for any primary concerns about their child. Of course, the rest of us are also here to help.We had a fantastic staff day – completely child-free – and it was only possible thanks to your great support. A big thank you to all of you!The day was filled with practical exercises, inspiring presentations, and meaningful discussions. We’re confident the children will benefit from this in the long run.We explored how outdoor activities can enhance children’s well-being, development, and learning. We also had an inspiring session with NaturMette about the potential of nature, plus a talk from VIA University College on movement, learning, and nature. Finally, Morten Kirckhoff gave us a thought-provoking presentation on discovering new experiences and finding courage in everyday life.It’s almost time for this year’s parent meeting. It will take place on October 29th from 7:00 to 9:30 PM at Sejs School in the south wing – entrance by the parking lot on Tyttebærvej.Please respond as soon as possible via the link on Aula so we can prepare the agenda based on your input.This year, we’ll be evaluating the connection between parental involvement in events and children’s inclusion in the community. That’s why we’re asking you to complete a short questionnaire included with the invitation. If you prefer not to answer online, you can pick up a paper version at Tyttebærhuset.A nationwide user satisfaction survey is currently being conducted for all municipal daycare services. It’s organized by Statistics Denmark on behalf of the Ministry of the Interior and Health and Local Government Denmark.The goal is to gather your feedback to help improve quality. The questions cover topics like educational efforts, physical facilities, well-being, and cooperation between parents and staff.We hope you’ll take the eight minutes it requires to respond. You’ll find the invitation in your Digital Post, and the survey runs from October 1st until January 2026. Thank you in advance for your participation!Our art project is still in full swing, with all children and staff working on it at different times. Group 1 will soon create a collaborative artwork using light, so they’ll need to bring something that lights up – for example, a lightsaber, a bike light, or a small string of lights.This year, we’ll host the art exhibition here at Tyttebærhuset, as the Citizens’ Association couldn’t secure a venue in November. Invitations will follow, but we expect the opening for parents to be on Thursday, November 20th, and an open house on Friday, November 21st. The children will help plan and host the event – and who knows, they might even offer a little refreshment at the opening!In addition, schoolchildren will visit on October 23rd, and the music sessions with Fabulatoriet continue every Tuesday.Before we wrap up, here’s a quick overview of what to keep in mind. The parent meeting is on October 29th, and Lilli will go on sick leave after her hip surgery on October 28th. The art exhibition will take place on November 20th and 21st, and Lucia will be celebrated on December 12th at 8:00 AM in Sejs Church.

See the posting: Vacant pedagogical assistant position in the kindergarten “Tyttebærhuset” – with the forest department “Blåbærhuset”Supervision We have had unannounced pedagogical supervision from the municipality in both Blåbærhuset and Tyttebærhuset. Group 1 answered questions from the little dog “Spørge Børge,” who asked:Do you have any good friends in kindergarten?Do you prefer playing outside or inside?Are there any adults you think are really nice?The children gave both funny and thoughtful answers – and shared lovely stories. The results will be discussed during the supervision meeting on September 24th with the pedagogical consultant, a parent, and staff.Activities – See more on Aula: Harvest Festival You can watch a video of the children from the Harvest Festival in Tyttebærhuset Kindergarten 2023.

Join us as we dive into the latest updates from Tyttebærhuset for August 2025. We welcome new children to our groups, discuss breakfast routines, and share insights on upcoming events and activities. Learn about our creative projects, including making recycled paper and preparing for the harvest festival.Key Highlights:Welcome to new members: Valentin, Anker, and Eskild. Breakfast and bus arrangements for the children. Upcoming information meeting on August 21, 2025. Creative projects: Recycled paper and art initiatives. Important dates: Personnel day on September 12, and parent meeting on October 30.Hashtags: #Tytteberghuset #AugustUpdates #CommunityNewsAI Translation:We hope everyone had a great summer vacation and has gathered new energy for everyday life. We welcome: Valentin in group 1, Anker in group 2, and Eskild in group 3. We are already getting to know you!BreakfastBreakfast is not something we emphasize much, as parents generally prioritize that children have breakfast at home. If there are children who haven't eaten, we offer rye bread with butter and cheese before 7:30 AM.Bus DepartureThe bus to Blåbærhuset is for children who arrive before 7:30 AM – unless a special arrangement has been made with Berit. We hope it is possible for most to drop off directly at Blåbærhuset, where we open at 7:30 AM. This saves both time and bus tickets. But we always find a solution that suits you.Candy from BirthdaysWe prefer that children do not take home candy bags or other items after a birthday. We would like what is served to be eaten at the birthday itself – whether it is celebrated here at the kindergarten or at home, as group 1 has the opportunity to invite.Information Meeting on 21.8.2025We invite children who started in the spring, as well as new children and their parents, to an information meeting. Here you can meet each other, ask questions, and gain greater insight into our daily life. We would also like to elaborate on why we do what we do. Registration via SMS on Aula. The invitation can be seen on the Aula calendar. We apologize for previously sending out an incorrect date to some.PodcastAnders Torvald Nielsen has created a podcast as an experiment. Perhaps it can be helpful for those who commute to have the newsletter read aloud?InspectionWe will have an unannounced inspection one day between 11.8 and 22.8. Additionally, there is an inspection meeting on 24.9, where our chairman Anders T. participates as a parent representative.ActivitiesNew ChildrenThe new children will explore the house's possibilities and get to know peers and adults.HarvestWe harvest what we can find in nature, on the playground, and in the herb garden. Right now, we are picking and tasting mirabelles. If we find blueberries, we will make blueberry ice cream, which we will have at the harvest festival. See more in the Aula calendar.Art ProjectWe make recycled paper from drawings that have just been crumpled together. It is a sensory challenge for some children to have their fingers in the water with the pulp or in the wet paper before it is blended into pulp. Later, we will draw and paint on the paper as a start to our art project. Throughout the fall, we will work through various creative processes, which may be exhibited – and which you might wish for as a Christmas gift?Upcoming DatesInformation Meeting: 21.8.2025 from 5:00 PM to 6:30 PMStaff Day on 12.9 - Where we would like help with childcare - see AulaParent Meeting: 30.10.2025 at 7:00 PM, at Sejs School, invitation to follow
