Game Programming with Scratch: Creative Learning Fun for Kids in Jena

In Game Programming with Witelo, children aged 10 and above discover the world of programming in a playful and child-friendly way. The free workshop at the Lobeda district library combines learning fun, technology, and personal ideas into a true family experience with a future.

Breathe Life into Your Own Games with Scratch

Here, children create small games step by step using Scratch. This makes digital education tangible, strengthens logical thinking, and promotes the development of creativity, concentration, and problem-solving skills. Participation takes place in a calm library atmosphere, ideal for focused experimentation and collaborative learning.

A MINT Value Offer

The workshop comes from witelo e.V., an experienced network for scientific and technical learning locations in Jena. The association has been coordinating MINT offers for children and youth since 2014, providing working groups, project days, and holiday workshops. This educational experience builds trust and gives families a good feeling when selecting the offer.

Family-Friendly, Accessible, and Free of Charge

Particularly practical: The event is free of charge, and registration is not necessary. The workshop runs every Friday from 3 to 4 PM, outside of school holidays. This makes it easy to integrate the visit into family life. Participation is aimed at children aged 10 and above and offers an age-appropriate entry into the world of digital media.

The Venue: Easily Accessible and Barrier-Free

The Lobeda district library is accessible and located on one floor. This makes the visit pleasant and straightforward. The library offers a wide range of media for children, including books, comics, audiobooks, learning aids, and MINT materials. For families, this creates a place where learning and discovery naturally belong together.

Conclusion: A Strong Event for Young Tinkerers

Game Programming with Witelo brings digital skills closer to children aged 10 and above and connects technology with fun, curiosity, and self-efficacy. Those looking for a child-friendly introduction to programming will experience an inspiring afternoon in Jena. Mark your calendars and be part of it!
