Kitafahrten is an annual multi-day camping trip (fahrten means "trip" or "wanderings")[1] for German kindergarten children, designed to increase responsibility for self and others by placing them in nature and away from their parents.[2] A teacher supervises the children during the camping trip,[2] and contact with parents is only allowed in emergencies. The concept and the word itself were created by Friedrich Fröbel in the 19th century.[2] He also created the concept of kindergarten.[3] It is popular in Berlin but not throughout all of Germany.[2]
