German Kindergarten was NOT What We Expected! 🇩🇪 Our Experience + Vorschule & Culture Shocks

Here is part two of our German Kindergarten Culture Shocks series! If you haven't seen part one yet, watch that first or this video might not make much sense :) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ITr2nQj9UZ0&t=165s.

In this video, we will share your comments about kindergarten, talk about Vorschule, and share our daughter's experience so far in a German kindergarten as an American girl. When we moved to Germany, we put a lot of thought and effort into helping our three boys integrate into Grundschule. We honestly thought starting Ella in Kindergarten would be easy...but we were wrong! See how it was for her and how we all grew and learned through the experience.

//ABOUT US//
We are a family of six, with four kids and a cat 😹, who moved from the USA to Germany in February of 2021 to pursue our dreams of adventure, travel, learning another language, and integrating into German life. We hope you enjoy our videos about our journey to integrate - the highs and the lows of being foreigners on the adventure of a lifetime.
