Tinkering, Wondering, and Trying Out at the Ernst-Abbe-Library Jena
At Tinkering plus 1 at the EAB, a lively family experience awaits curious children and adults. In the workshop of the Ernst-Abbe-Library Jena, we build, discover, research, and create together – with everything that excites small hands and big ideas.
An Afternoon Full of Learning Fun for the Whole Family
The open participation action is aimed at children, families, and anyone who enjoys experimenting. Electronics kits, Kapla blocks, marble and wooden trains, as well as magnet building sets invite for tinkering. This not only brings joy but also playfully promotes fine motor skills, concentration, creativity, and initial technical understanding.
A New Explorer Theme Every Tuesday
The special feature of this offer is the changing additional program. Every week brings a new impulse – sometimes bee-learning robots, sometimes upcycling, sometimes a writing workshop. This creates a varied visit for families with plenty of variety and real Aha moments.
Child-Friendly, Open, and Age-Appropriate
The event is designed for visitors aged 5 to 99 years. This makes it a cross-generational meeting point where children can actively engage with parents, grandparents, or other caregivers. The workshop on level 0 provides a clear, easily accessible framework for this.
Why This Family Experience is Educationally Valuable
When crafting, building, and trying out, children learn not only with their hands but also with their minds. They experience self-efficacy, practice problem-solving, and discover technical connections at their own pace. This makes the action a valuable building block for child development and collaborative learning.
Conclusion: A Creative Book Afternoon with Real Discoverer Feeling
Tinkering plus 1 at the EAB combines play, education, and family time in a particularly beautiful way. Anyone who wants a free, child-friendly, and inspiring participation action should experience this date live.
