Promoting development with donkeys

Making children strong with donkeys...

The donkey's characteristics form the fundamental foundation for the therapeutic education of children. Donkeys as a medium always act unobtrusively and react in an authentic way to the children's behavior. Anton and Lenchen are very careful and patient with children. Pressure to perform and the need to succeed are foreign to them. Their consistent behavior offers the children security and fosters trust. In this way we create a relaxed atmosphere in which the children can discover how to deal with the donkeys and themselves with playful ease. I accompany your child in his actions in a non-judgmental way and encourage him to develop new solutions himself. The individual learning path is situation-related and resource-oriented: learning from experience, growing in unfamiliar situations, making self-determined decisions and getting closer to your personal goals - far from time pressure or rigid rules.
