“Kindergartens skipping the stressful lussetåg”

“Many look forward to the classic lussetåg in schools and kindergartens in the day – a must for many parents.”

“But in recent years, several kindergartens have chosen to celebrate lucia in new ways, according to an analysis by the newspaper Kommunalarbetaren done.”

“According to Kommunalarbetarens review, more and more kindergartens invite parents to the celebration of st. lucia day with a traditional lucia procession. Many believe that they do it to reduce stress for children and staff.”

“– To train for the lucia takes a lot of time in claims from other parts of the business and creates a stress in both children and staff. Our main argument is that we find that many of the children, and especially the smallest, will have to stand before a large audience, ” says Karin Käppe, deputy förskolechef on Sjöbodens preschool in Stockholm, sweden.”

“The kindergartens that choose to lussa for the parents celebrating yet lucia – but in new ways. At the preschool Bergskristallen in Kiruna, dress the kids and staff out and holding a celebration which will be filmed and posted on the digital platform.”

“– It works so well. All the children sing. No three-year-old stand and are worried about the pressure to sing for the foreign parents. And none of the parents need to have a bad conscience because they can’t be with, say barnskötaren Sofie Joki.”

“Several preschools have stopped to let the kids lussa for the parents. Here are some examples of what is being done instead:”

“Luciasamling with song and christmas without parents”

“Luciasamling being filmed and parents have a coffee and look afterwards.”

“early in the morning without parents where kids are looking at the celebration of st. lucia day on tv”

“morning assembly with parents and the visit of the lucia procession on the basis of”

“the Kids lussar for each other without the parents”

“Lyktfest on the farm with christmas carols at the retrieval”

“the celebration of st. lucia day on the farm with parents at drop-off.”
