More and more attention needs to be paid to these tasks in order to complete them properly. Precious time that is lost in direct work with the children.

This so-called “preparation time”, which should actually take place in the facilities, is then often transferred to the home. Who hasn’t spent hours trawling through books, templates or the internet looking for ideas and suggestions in outline plans, worksheets, coloring books and project folders, only to pull out the old plan from last year.
