Experimentation fun for families: MINT Wednesday turns Jena into a little research laboratory
On MINT Wednesday at the Ernst-Abbe Library Jena, children from primary school age discover together with adults how exciting tinkering, experimenting, and marveling can be. On September 9, 2026, the focus will be on Ozobots: small learning robots that travel through the library and make MINT (Mathematics, Informatics, Natural Sciences, Technology) very tangible.
What families can expect this afternoon
The MINT Wednesday begins at 4:00 PM in the workshop on level 0. The open offer from witelo e.V. invites to a child-friendly learning experience where curiosity, participation, and joint discovery are at the forefront. No registration is required, friends can simply join in.
Aging-appropriate, playful, and full of aha moments
The format is aimed at children from primary school age and combines educational fun with movement, observation, and small successes. This is a strong plus, especially for families: children experience technology, mathematics, and natural sciences not in a dry way but very practically and with a lot of children's laughter.
Safe, open, and family-friendly
The event takes place at the Ernst-Abbe Library Jena, a barrier-free location with an open educational mandate. As a library with long experience in children's and family programs, it creates a protected framework for joint research. For families, this means: short distances, clear orientation, and an offer that can easily be integrated into a relaxing afternoon outing.
Why the visit is worthwhile
For those looking for a varied family afternoon with children, this offers a nice mix of learning, discovering, and spending time together. MINT Wednesday sparks interest in technology and science and encourages more exploration. Anyone wanting to excite little explorers should not miss this date in Jena.
