The volunteer completed her EVS in a daycare center. She supported the nursery staff in childcare, played with the children and performed EVS-themed projects. It was an Individual EVS activity in the host organisation "Kita at Brose Park" in Berlin Pankow. In the "Kita at Brose Park" up to 120 children aged eight weeks to school age are in day care . Signe Säwen had a supportive role in the everyday daycare and was especially in the group "bandits" a cultural enrichment. Here duties included everyday actions, such as slicing fruit for the children, tidying up, supporting the children by means of common handycrafts and painting, the accompaniment on outings, reading aloud, but also the completion of self-selected projects with the support of teachers. Furthermore Ms Säwen offered various activities for the children, such as a roundtable on the topic "Fruit - Where does it all come from?", or a clown show and a puppet theater with homemade drawings, in which she prepared and showcased both events with three other participants of the program in different kindergartens. She also presented a Nordic fairy tale in a graphic way by translating it, painting pictures for it and reading it to the children. And she organised a Swedish Easter, in which the children dressed up together with her as Easter witches and a played a hidden object game. So the children learned about this Swedish tradition. Signe's participation in the project was a very effective way to get a little closer to Europe, not only for herself as young person, but also for the people who have worked with her. The project has helped both the participant, and the other participants to think in European dimensions, to explore similarities, to arouse curiosity about the unknown and to learn how not to consider it as a threat but rather as an enrichment. It has also helped provide some security to move within Europe. We aim to help and support young people who show own initiative to have this international, intercultural experience, to explore everyday life in a foreign country in order to experience how to independently organise their lives there, to make friends and to maintain friendships. These are experiences that will make them see the bigger picture, help them dealing with the unfamiliar situations and foreigners in their own daily lives and make them aware of the problems of our foreign citizens. These results are multiplied by these young people who will apply their experience to their service in their areas of activity and will pass them on. For the children of our nursery schools with a young person from another country, the encounter is an asset for cultural diversity. They learn that there are not only "us Germans", but also people of other nationalities who speak a different language, have different customs and traditions, and perhaps look different to us. We aim to arouse the curiosity of children on this positive "otherness" and educate early to tolerance and openness. Especially in our city Berlin xenophobia is always a big issue that in our opinion needs to be addressed as early as kindergarten age.
