Read Aloud! invites children to dive into the world of stories
As autumn begins to set in outside, a special family time starts in the children's library of the Ernst-Abbe-Bibliothek Jena: Children aged 3 and up listen to exciting stories and discover the joy of reading together. On Friday, October 2, 2026, the event will be themed around Intercultural Week. A children's book about diversity and tolerance will be read aloud.
Stories that spark curiosity
When reading aloud, images are created in the mind, new questions arise, and many small moments of wonder occur. The child-friendly event opens up a playful access to language, imagination, and different life experiences for young listeners. Especially at preschool age, reading together supports language development, concentration, and the joy of storytelling.
Discovering diversity and tolerance together
The Read Aloud special for Intercultural Week combines a cozy reading hour with an important theme: Children encounter stories that make diversity visible and promote mutual respect. The learning experience remains age-appropriate, understandable, and close to families' life worlds.
Calm family time in the children's library
The event takes place in the children's area of the Ernst-Abbe-Bibliothek Jena. A familiar library atmosphere, shared listening, and children's laughter create a relaxed family experience. Parents accompany their children and experience a valuable time together, where reading, conversation, and curiosity come together.
