Forest Kindergarten Kids Build Birdhouses to Boost Local Wildlife
A forest kindergarten in Schwenningen's Natzental area has teamed up with local foresters for a hands-on conservation project. The initiative focused on creating new nesting sites for native birds while teaching children about wildlife protection in a playful way. The project was led by Alexandra Preis, head of Schwenningen's municipal forestry office, along with two forestry workers. Together with the children, they built and decorated wooden nesting boxes before carefully hanging them in the trees.
The foresters made sure each box was securely mounted at the right height. Under Preis' guidance, the young participants learned why nesting sites matter for birds and how to help protect them. The boxes were placed across the Natzental area to provide extra breeding spaces for local species. Beyond conservation, the project aimed to teach environmental awareness. By combining learning with practical action, the children gained firsthand experience in nature protection.
The newly installed nesting boxes now offer additional breeding spots for birds in the Natzental area. The collaboration between the forest kindergarten and local foresters has given children a direct role in supporting wildlife. Similar small-scale projects continue to contribute to conservation efforts in the Black Forest region.
