Garbage collection – a highlight for most young children! My children are absolutely crazy about garbage trucks and trash cans. Our son looks in every trash can, and when a garbage truck drives by, there is nothing more interesting. My twins are thrilled when they get to watch our trash can being emptied. It is lovely to see how their eyes grow huge and how they rave about it for hours afterward. What could be more natural than conjuring up such a wonderful moment for them now and then by video; so here are our 3 favorite videos on the topic of garbage collection:
1st video: Organic waste in Gänserndorf
My husband recorded the 1st video so the children can watch 'our' garbage collection again and again:
2nd video: We Are the 6 from the Garbage Collection
This video is from 'Die Sendung mit der Maus'. My children love the video and the music that goes with it. We have to watch it again and again, and they already know parts of the lyrics:
3rd video: Garbage collection from Düsseldorf
The 3rd video shows the garbage collection in Düsseldorf, where many garbage trucks drive and many trash cans are emptied:
Do you also have children who are in love with garbage trucks? Are there any favorite videos? We would be very happy to receive videos or recommendations!

Hello there!
My son (2) is also a mini garbage man! The garbage collection comes on Fridays, and every time it is a hit again! He also already has an impressive fleet of garbage trucks of his own, and he would much rather sit on our recycling-paper bin than on the climbing frame. 😉
Besides your video No. 3, he currently loves the following little films:
