Discovering with the Water Guard
In the morning, the group goes to Lerchenauer Lake. There, the children explore the watch station, learn about rescue equipment, and experience how professional water rescue works. A motor rescue boat with 40 hp makes the day particularly vivid and conveys safety on the water in a way that directly fascinates children. According to the official mission statement, the water guard of the DRK stands for education, swimming learning, and quick assistance in water rescue services.

Learning with Fun and Real Aha Moments
For families, this holiday offer is more than just an outing: it is an age-appropriate learning experience with movement, curiosity, and team spirit. Children experience how important caution, consideration, and clear rules are at the water. This interplay of learning fun and safety awareness makes the family experience pedagogically valuable.
