Found at the DDR museum in Berlin. Apparently making childrens play with each other is communist propaganda.

Parenti quote.

A note written in the wall of a museum saying: A PLANNED CHILDHOOD The Kindergarten was not only a good source of childcare, It was the first state institution of education that a child would visit. Seizing this early opportunity to convince the next generation of the joys of Socialism, the state ensured that more than 90 per cent of children were granted a place. The day was subject to rigid planning. Children were encouraged to do everything in the collective: playtime, meals and even the afternoon nap left ne room for individual initiative. By Party logic, a good Socialist life in the community was more important than the development of individual abilities

Not really, there's usually less children per teacher and other things are modified too, but ultimately it's the same purpose and definitely in that age range.
