Storytime for Little Book Lovers in Göttingen
When the November wind blows outside, it’s cozy in the children's library of the Göttingen City Library: On Saturday, November 21, 2026, Hiltrud Althaus, Gabriele Scheel, and Sigrid Backhaus invite families to a child-friendly reading hour. Starting at 11:30 AM, new worlds full of imagination, excitement, and children's laughter will be created among picture books and bookshelves.
Diving Together into the World of Stories
During reading, children listen attentively, discover new words, and develop their own images in their heads. The Saturday readers create a calm environment in which curiosity, joy of language, and shared experiences come together. This provides families with a valuable learning experience full of closeness, wonder, and plenty of room for imagination.
Aged Appropriately, Calm, and Full of Learning Fun
The reading offer of the Göttingen Children's Library is particularly aimed at children aged four and above. The stories are designed for children and support linguistic development, concentration, and emotional imagination. Parents and caregivers experience a relaxed cultural time together with their children, where reading is conveyed playfully and accessibly.
A Familiar Place for Families
The event takes place in the Central Library in the Thomas-Buergenthal-Haus. The City Library regularly offers reading hours and other events for children. The children’s area creates a clear environment for a safe family experience right in the heart of Göttingen. The library is open on Saturdays from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM.
Entry Free and Easily Planned
Entry to the reading hour is free of charge. This makes the offer ideal for families who want to spend time together, promote reading enjoyment, and experience a relaxing Saturday morning.
Visitors can expect a warm reading hour with familiar readers, lively stories, and valuable impulses for child development. Those who want to experience children’s literature together rather than just look at it should attend this event live at the children's library.
