The idea for my mind map books came to me during a trip to Asia. On my travels, I like to browse through the children’s sections of local bookstores. It is very interesting to see what the different countries have to offer. Somehow, children’s books are a mirror of how a society feels about its children. Surely you know that in Asia a lot of importance is attached to a good education. This starts already in kindergarten. Books with mind maps on various topics are already available in Asia for the smallest of the little ones as picture books. For our standards kitschy-colorful, as one knows many things from Asia. That was the inspiration for my own version of mind map books. Ultimately, mind maps are used to visualize thoughts on a certain topic on paper. This transfer from the head to the paper helps to "grasp" the topic better, but also to bring it closer to others. And it is precisely these two things, "grasping" and "bringing closer", that make child-friendly mind maps a wonderful pedagogical tool in kindergarten.
