The word means 'children's garden' in German.
By the way, you are correct, 'kindergarten' is writen with a T and not a D, like Martha said. In Spain "kindergarten" is 'parvulitos'.

It means garden in German so it literally means garden of children.
In English is kindergarden, replacing the t for a d and if translate that into Spanish which in some Spanish speaking countries is used it would be "JardÃn de Niños" kinder=niños=kids garten=garden=jardÃn
