The Place Of Kindergarten Class Design In Preschool Education
Pre-school education; it is an education suitable for the individual development characteristics of children of 0-72 months, supporting the children physically, mentally, emotionally and socially, and preparing for primary school. Preschool education has social goals. These; to look after the children of busy people, to support the individual development of children, and to facilitate the communication of children among themselves or with adults. Educating the child’s sensory system in pre-school education and increasing its sensitivity to the environment are educational goals. Strengthening the developmental aspect of the child is one of the developmental goals of preschool education. Activities in preschool education;
– Painting / painting studies, physical activities, studies using paper scissors, playing with toys (activities required for motor development).
– Drama / animation / imitation games, reading and self-expression activities (activities that support language development).
– Counting, learning colors, learning similar-different concepts, learning things (activities for cognitive development).
Activities organized by creating game groups, studies on cooperation and sharing (activities supporting social development).
Since this education is an education period of the first years of life, it has a positive effect on children’s learning abilities. For this reason, it is important to design the kindergarten class while opening the educational space according to the above-mentioned objectives.
Why Is Kindergarten Class Design Important?
Kindergarten class design is the most important issue for entrepreneurs who plan to open a kindergarten. A good kindergarten class design can both make the place more beautiful and attract customers, and make children love school more.
The development of the child does not only depend on its biological characteristics or the people in its environment. The child also needs a well-designed physical space to be able to do some of the activities listed above. For example; the child, who will run and play in the playground, will test the sturdiness of the slide, even though he is young; and this will affect whether he gets on the slide again. Or the child who will operate at the table in the interior will see if the table and chair are ergonomic; according to him, he will decide to complete his activity.
The interests and abilities of the child are revealed by taking into account the processes of participation in school activities, sports, science and art activities. Versatile activities such as music, dance, song, play, and picture enable children to discover their talents at school.
If we look at the activities in sports, activities such as running, jumping, sliding, crawling, climbing, throwing, catching increase the positive self-confidence of the child’s own body image and abilities. The child meets the need for emotional relaxation by acting independently and free during play. The presence of hills, hard and soft surfaces, sand and soil areas, climbing and jumping areas at different heights constitutes the component of a game-learning environment that supports children’s physical development. Slides, swings, tunnels, ramps, logs, climbing vehicles, wheeled cars are also components that support the physical development of children.
Children begin to learn concepts such as shape, color, size, weight, volume, measurement, weighing, counting, time, place, distance in preschool ages. If we look at it from a scientific perspective, the child learns the properties and functions of its use by recognizing the object with many perceived concepts. At the same time, the child learns the behaviors such as being able to classify, sort, analyze and synthesize the problem given to him. Painting and exhibition areas, sitting spaces, play houses, music workshops, child-sized repair / kitchen / cleaning corners, activity walls, amphitheater are the structures of a game-learning environment that supports their cognitive development. Roads, seating areas, sitting groups in grass areas, working areas, various building materials are components of a game-learning environment that supports their social development.

Pediko Toy
The importance of toys is very important in kindergarten design. It is the period when the child examines the objects, materials and colors around them, and the mediators of these choices are games and toys. During the development stages, all play materials that help the child’s mental, physical and psycho-social development and develop their imagination and creative abilities can be defined as toys. The most important criteria that determine the characteristics of the toys are the material, color, shape, size and usage areas. During the physical and mental development, as the likes and preferences of the children become evident, their opinions and understandings about color and shape and design are beginning to emerge.
Kindergarten toys are educational wooden toys that will never go out of fashion, blocks, dominoes, jigsaw puzzles, thematic toys, and removable sets. These are also divided into several categories.
