Abstract

Ovaj rad usmjeren je na istraživanje mišljenja roditelja o dobrobiti šumskih vrtića i šumske pedagogije na razvoj djeteta. Radom su istražene i objašnjene teme dobrobiti i indikatora dobrobiti, teme sustava ranog i predškolskog odgoja i obrazovanja, te dokumenata Nacionalnog kurikuluma za rani i predškolski odgoj i obrazovanje i Državnog pedagoškog standarda. Također, definirani su pojmovi šumske pedagogije, šumskog kurikuluma, slobodne i rizične igre, te je navedena raširenost šumskih vrtića u Europi i Hrvatskoj.
U empirijskom dijelu rada provedeno je istraživanje uz pomoć ankete u kojoj je sudjelovalo 174 roditelja djece predškolske dobi s područja Republike Hrvatske. Istraživanjem se nastojalo istražiti smatraju li roditelji boravak djece u šumskim vrtićima pozitivnim za sve segmente razvoja djece. Pokušalo se utvrditi postoje li razlike u mišljenjima sudionika s obzirom na njihovo obrazovanje, te s obzirom na njihovo poznavanje pojma „šumski vrtić“. Rezultati istraživanja pokazali su kako postoje statistički značajne razlike između sudionika s višim i nižim stupnjem obrazovanja, te između sudionika koji su više i manje upoznati sa značenjem pojma „šumski vrtić“. Sudionici s višim stupnjem obrazovanja, te s većim stupnjem znanja o šumskim vrtićima pokazali su pozitivnija mišljenja o dobrobiti šumskih vrtića za razvoj djeteta.

Abstract (english)

This paper is focused on researching parents' opinions on the well-being of forest kindergartens and the effects of forest pedagogy on child development. The paper explores and explains the topics of well-being and indicators of well-being, the topics of the system of early and preschool education, and the documents of the National Curriculum for Early and Preschool Education and the State Pedagogical Standard. The terms forest pedagogy, forest curriculum, free and risky play are also defined, and the prevalence of forest kindergartens in Europe and Croatia is listed.
In the empirical part of the paper, research was conducted with the help of a survey in which 174 parents of preschool children from the territory of the Republic of Croatia participated. The research aimed to examine whether parents consider the attendance of children in forest kindergarten beneficial for all aspects of child development.
Research has also aimed to determine whether there are differences in participants opinions based on their education and their familiarity with the concept of "Forest Kindergarten". The research results showed statistically significant differences between participants with higher and lower levels of education, and between participants who were more and less familiar with the concept of "Forest Kidergarten". Participants with higher levels of education and greater knowledge about forest kindergartens expressed more positive opinions about the benefits of forest kindergartens for child development.
