Tinkering plus 1: Creative Family Afternoon in Jena
In the workshop of the Ernst-Abbe-Library Jena, Tuesday becomes a discovery day for curious children, parents, grandparents, and adults. At Tinkering plus 1, electric building kits, Kapla blocks, marble run, wooden train sets, and magnetic construction sets invite to build, test, and invent on their own.
Building, experimenting, and marveling together
From 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM, an open space for creative learning and shared time will be created on Level 0. Children from 5 years old will playfully discover how constructions work, how materials are connected, and how a small building can emerge from an idea. The family experience promotes imagination, fine motor skills, spatial thinking, and joy of self-directed learning.
A new surprise every Tuesday
The special plus 1 regularly brings new impulses to the workshop. This includes, for example, bee-learning robots, creative folding books, and other changing participatory ideas. Thus, the offer combines child-friendly experimentation with learning fun, curiosity, and practical learning experience.
Ages appropriate for children and adults
The offer is aimed at people from 5 to 99 years old. Younger children collect first experiences with shapes, colors, and simple constructions, while older children and adults can develop their own solutions. The open design supports self-determined experimentation and makes the event a versatile family activity in any weather.
Good to know for families
The event takes place indoors in the workshop of the Ernst-Abbe-Library on Level 0. No registration is required. Admission is free. The Ernst-Abbe-Library carries out its tinkering offerings as family-friendly and barrier-free educational offers.
Conclusion: Learning fun with children's laughter
Tinkering plus 1 gives families a special break full of curiosity, movement, and shared successes. Those who like to build, experiment, and try out new ideas will experience a varied afternoon in the EAB with child-friendly development, safety, and plenty of room for their own ideas.
