Creative and sustainable: workshop for children in the Göttingen Museum!

Ritterplan 7-8, 37073 Göttingen, Deutschland - On July 6, 2025, an exciting workshop for children will take place in the Göttingen municipal museum. Under the motto "Do seed balls yourself", children from the age of seven from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. can become creative and playfully learn environmental protection. Participation is free of charge, but the number of space is limited to a maximum of twelve participants, which is why registration is recommended. Interested parties reach the museum at 0551/400-2843 or by email to museum@goettingen.de. This workshop is about promoting the natural creativity of the children and raising awareness of our environment.

The workshop is part of the already ongoing exhibition "Environment, Climate & Du", which had its starting shot on April 6th. Participants can interactively explore the content there about environmental issues and sustainable life. The exhibition offers important information on reflection on the effects of climate change on everyday life. The opening times are Tuesday to Friday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Every first Thursday of the month, the museum even remains open until 7 p.m. Entry to the exhibition is free of charge, as is participation in the workshop.

interactive experiences in the museum

The program is aimed not only at individual visitors, but especially also at school classes who can book their own tours. The children work on various environmental issues in small groups and discuss their findings. This type of interactive discussion not only promotes awareness of sustainability in the areas of economy, ecology and society, but also social learning among the students. The special content is based on the original project of the Junge Museum Frankfurt, but with new and concrete figures as well as information for the audience in Göttingen.

A similar commitment to environmental protection shows the Labyrinth Children's Museum in Berlin with its interactive exhibition "Of course today! Participate for tomorrow". Here, children from the age of three can discover fascinating aspects of environmental protection and sustainability in six different exhibition stations. The focus is on topics such as biodiversity, the importance of the seas and bypassing our resources. Here the children are confronted directly with the challenges and possibilities of our coexistence and learn by playing roles and interactive elements.

with promotions and events such as the workshop on July 6th and the exhibitions in Göttingen and Berlin it becomes clear how important it is to bring the importance of the environment and its preservation closer to the youngest. Through playful methods, children are encouraged to recognize their own options for action and become active. Therefore, a visit is worthwhile - whether in the municipal museum in Göttingen or in the Labyrinth Children's Museum in Berlin, because all children are invited to discover and work their environment.
