Vizjak, Neža (avtor), Kostanjevec, Stojan (mentor), Erjavšek, Martina (komentor)

Lokalno pridelana hrana je tista hrana, ki za svojo pot od pridelovalca do porabnika ne prepotuje dolge poti. Takšna hrani ni le primernejša za uživanje, temveč z nakupom lokalno pridelane hrane spodbujamo tudi trajnostni razvoj gospodarstva. V Sloveniji je veliko ponudnikov mleka in mlečnih izdelkov, ki se nahajajo v bližini javnih ustanov, med katere spadajo tudi vrtci. Da bi otroci rajši uživali lokalno pridelano mleko in mlečne izdelke, pa lahko veliko prispevajo tudi vzgojitelji, tako z načrtovanimi kot tudi z nenačrtovanimi dejavnostmi. Cilj raziskave je bil raziskati, kako pogosto otroci uživajo lokalno pridelane mlečne izdelke ter njihovo priljubljenost pri otrocih. Z raziskavo smo želeli ugotoviti, kako dobro otroci poznajo izdelavo mlečnih izdelkov in kako poznavanje izdelave vpliva na njihovo uživanje. Cilj je bil tudi otroke preko dejavnosti seznaniti s pomenom lokalne pridelave hrane. V raziskavi sem uporabila kvalitativno študijo primera. Uporabila sem različne metode raziskovanja. Uporabila sem analizo literature, ki obravnava lokalno pridelavo mleka in mlečnih izdelkov in prehrano otrok v vrtcu. Otroke sem v skupini opazovala dva tedna. Pripravila in uporabila sem ocenjevalne lestvice, vprašalnik in individualni delno strukturiran intervju za vzgojiteljici ter organizatorko prehrane in zdravstveno-higienskega režima. Vzorec je bil nenaključen. V diplomsko delo sem vključila vrtčevsko skupino otrok drugega starostnega obdobja, stare od 4 do 6 let. V skupini je bilo v času raziskovanja prisotnih 21 otrok. Vključeni sta bili tudi vzgojiteljici skupine otrok, v kateri sem raziskovala, ter organizatorka prehrane in zdravstveno-higienskega režima. Rezultati raziskave so pokazali, da lahko z načrtovanimi dejavnostmi otroke uspešno spodbudimo k uživanju lokalno pridelanega mleka in mlečnih izdelkov. Otroci so z dejavnostmi pridobili veliko novega znanja in izkušenj. Besedni zaklad otrok se je zaradi izvedenih dejavnosti povečal. Otroci so spoznali, iz česa je lokalno pridelan skutni namaz, in ga naredili tudi sami. Ugotovljeno je bilo, da poznavanje hrane in obisk lokalne kmetije otroke spodbuja k uživanju hrane, ki jo na kmetiji spoznajo. Pridobljeni rezultati kažejo, da lahko s pomočjo načrtovanih dejavnosti spodbujamo uživanje lokalno pridelanega mleka in mlečnih izdelkov pri predšolskih otrocih. Vrtec je okolje, v katerem otroci s pomočjo vzgojiteljic in ostalih strokovnih delavcev lahko pridobijo veliko novih spoznanj o hrani in prehranjevanju.

• Naslov: Encouraging the consumption of locally produced milk and dairy products in kindergartens

Izvleček

Locally produced food is food that does not travel a long way from producer to consumer. Such food is not only more suitable for consumption, but by purchasing locally produced food we also promote sustainable economic development. In Slovenia, there are many providers of milk and dairy products located near public institutions, including kindergartens. In order for children to consume locally produced milk and dairy products, kindergarten teachers can also contribute a lot, both through planned and unplanned activities. The aim of the research was to investigate how often children consume locally produced dairy products and their popularity among children. With the research, we wanted to determine how well children know how to make dairy products and how the knowledge of how to make them affects their consumption. The aim was also to introduce the importance of local food production to children through activities. In the research, I used a qualitative case study. I used various research methods. I used an analysis of the literature that deals with local milk and dairy production and children's nutrition in kindergarten. I observed the children in the group for two weeks. I prepared and used rating scales, a questionnaire and an individual semi-structured interview for the kindergarten teachers and the organizer of nutrition and health hygiene regime.The sample was non-random. In my diploma thesis, I included a kindergarten group of children of the second age bracket, aged 4 to 6. There were 21 children present in the group during the research. The two teachers of the group of children in which I conducted the research and the organizer of nutrition and health hygiene regime were also included. The results of the research showed that we can successfully encourage children to consume locally produced milk and dairy products with planned activities. The children gained a lot of new knowledge and experience through the activities. The children's vocabulary increased as a result of the activities carried out. The children learnt what locally produced cottage cheese spread is made of and made it themselves. It was found that knowing about food and visiting a local farm encourages children to eat the food they learn about on the farm. The results obtained show that we can encourage the consumption of locally produced milk and dairy products in preschool children with the help of planned activities. Kindergarten is an environment in which children, with the help of kindergarten teachers and other professional workers, can gain a lot of new knowledge about food and nutrition.
