THE CHALLENGE
To support the establishment of a forest kindergarten through research, the preparation of a contribution calculation, market analysis and survey. Considering a low-threshold access to a forest kindergarten.
OUTCOMES
Low-threshold access to a forest kindergarten is only possible with the support of sponsors or the government. There is great interest among the respondents for a place in a forest kindergarten. The willingness to pay of the parents surveyed is below the amount that a forest kindergarten would cost. There is a clear connection between income and willingness to pay. A shuttle service could help to solve the problem of a too long journey. In addition, the opening hours must be designed in such a way that parents can combine it with their jobs.
