Playful learning with real Aha-moments
Here, research, building, and experimentation occur. Electronics kits, Kapla blocks, marble runs, and wooden trains as well as magnet construction sets invite age-appropriate discoveries. Each week, a new Plus-1 theme is added, such as learning robots, foldable books, or small craft ideas that strengthen fine motor skills, concentration, and creative thinking.

The new building provides a contemporary environment for children, adolescents, and adults, with inviting learning and leisure areas.

This time, the bookmark takes center stage
On 22.09.2026, the Tuesday Plus-1 program will focus on bookmarks. This family offering combines crafting fun with a small, practical result that children can proudly take home. Such projects create sustainable learning experiences as they promote imagination, self-efficacy, and joy in creating.

Especially attractive for families
The free access, the clear age specification of 5 to 99 years, and the open workshop character make the offering a straightforward afternoon idea for families. The library setting also indicates a relaxing visit: right in the middle of Jena, easily accessible, and embedded in a facility that considers reading promotion and joint discovery as a heartfelt concern.
