Stuttgart is home to one of Europe’s most significant educational events, didacta, which has been a cornerstone for educational innovation and exchange since its inception in 1951. Given its storied history and longevity, the trade fair has put the family and education industry in Stuttgart in the spotlight within the wider education sector in Europe. didacta annually attracts educators, teachers, and professionals from across the spectrum. The event serves as an interactive learning ground for educators, enabling them to discover the latest trends, innovations, and tools shaping the education market. A significant portion of didacta is dedicated to early childhood education, a crucial phase that spans from birth to preschool age. Early childhood education is pivotal as it lays the foundation for lifelong learning and development. The German children and youth welfare civil code defines education, upbringing, and care as central tasks of elementary pedagogy, highlighting the importance of these early years. The unique aspect of early childhood education is its child-centric approach. It emphasizes that children learn primarily through their actions, driven by their natural curiosity. Every child possesses inherent competencies from birth and further develops these through exploration and interaction with their environment. This phase is critical, as children learn more during early childhood than at any other time in their lives. At didacta, teachers are presented with innovative products and services that improve the quality of education at this stage and negotiate the quickly growing segment of online education. Over recent years, early childhood education has gained prominence on the agenda of specialized staff. By 2030, the aim is to ensure that all children have high-quality access to early education methods. This shift is partly due to the increasing number of children utilizing care services at a younger age.
