Wenn Geschwister in die selbe Kita gehen, ergeben sich viele Fragen: Sollen Kinder auch die selbe Gruppe besuchen oder lieber nicht? Welche Schwierigkeiten können auftreten und welche Chancen bieten sich? Dieser kleine Ratgeber hilft Erzieherinnen und Erziehern sowie Eltern, einfühlsam auf die besonderen Belange von Geschwisterkindern einzugehen. So können sowohl die älteren als auch die jüngeren Kinder in ihrer Kita-Zeit optimal unterstützt werden.

Geschwisterbeziehungen sind in der Regel die längsten Bindungen, die ein Mensch in seinem Leben hat. Sie stellen in dieser Gesellschaft, wo Wohnortswechsel, Partnerwechsel und Berufswechsel an der Tagesordnung sind, eine selten gewordene Kontinuität dar. Grund genug, um diesem Beziehungsgeflecht mehr Aufmerksamkeit zu schenken. In der psychoanalytischen Forschung waren Geschwister lange Zeit jedoch nur von Interesse, wenn ihre Beziehung pathologischen Charakter hatte.

Geschwister wollen Aufmerksamkeit, sie lieben sich, sie hauen sich - und treiben uns Eltern Schweißperlen auf die Stirn. Bindungsorientiert erziehen, Nähe zu jedem einzelnen Kind und auch zwischen den Geschwistern aufbauen, das ist eine besondere Herausforderung in Familien. Wie geht man mit der Geschwisterkrise nach der Geburt um, wenn Eifersucht und Trotzanfälle des größeren Kindes fast unausweichlich sind? Was können wir Eltern tun, damit sich jedes Kind in der Familie gesehen fühlt, ohne uns selbst dabei im Alltagschaos zu verlieren?

Wenn Familienzuwachs ins Haus steht, tauchen viele Fragen auf, die die Eltern beim ersten Kind nicht hatten.

Nathalie Klüver, Bloggerin und Mutter von drei Kindern, kennt diese Unsicherheiten und Herausforderungen, beiden Kindern gerecht zu werden und trotzdem im Alltag nicht unterzugehen, gut. Unterhaltsam und augenzwinkernd begleitet sie Sie durch die ersten Jahre.
