This article presents the results of a study of child satisfaction with kindergarten in Hungary. The study was carried out among children between 5 and 6 years old with the aim of examining how preschool children thought about their own kindergarten, how they experienced daily life there, and how they imagined the good kindergarten. We conducted a semi-structured interview based on predetermined questions. Then, we performed a quantitative and qualitative analysis. The results showed that the children interviewed were generally satisfied with the education provided at their own kindergarten and with the environment surrounding them, as well as with the pedagogical activities. The children’s acceptance attitude towards kindergarten was mostly determined by the physical environment, the activities taking place in it, and the social environment which affected their general well-being. The results of the study further refined the knowledge quality indicators of the relationship between children aged 5–6 years and kindergarten.This article presents the results of a study of child satisfaction with kindergarten in Hungary.
