Abstract

This article deals with the issue of using natural materials and obtaining inspiration from nature in landscape architecture in the context of upbringing and needs of early childhood. Problems associated with the current trends in the design of playgrounds and proposals for changes in this area are discussed. The observations and conclusions are based on the experience gained during a stay in one of the German Forest Kindergartens Waldkinder Regensburg (Bavaria, Germany). Using an example of an alternative model of education based on children’s participation, the needs and preferences of the youngest are discussed, which can be used as guidelines for landscape architects in the design process.
