Encouraging Bilateral Reading for Children
The much-anticipated Storytelling Week in Wiesbaden is set to return from November 11th to 17th, 2024. This annual city-wide event promises a week filled with exciting stories for both young and old, taking place in various city and neighbourhood libraries.
One of the highlighted events is the bilingual storytelling series for children, hosted by Wiesbaden's City and Music Library at the Mauritius Mediathek. Starting from September 6th, these sessions are scheduled every first and third Saturday of the month, from 10:30 to 11:30 AM. The stories will be presented in English and German, with a special addition of German and Spanish stories in November.
Language becomes an adventure during these bilingual storytelling sessions, without the pressure or textbooks. These sessions are designed for children aged 1 to 10, offering them an opportunity to discover different cultures and potentially inspiring them to tell stories in multiple languages themselves.
While specific information about registration, exact dates, and age suitability for the bilingual storytelling series at the Mauritius Mediathek are not currently available on the library's official website, typical library event practices in Germany suggest that registration may be required either online or through contact with the library.
It is also worth noting that the Storytelling Week in Wiesbaden is a free event, with no registration necessary.
The Storytelling Week in Wiesbaden is part of a cooperation project called "Read with me" between Mitinitiative e. V. and the Wiesbaden Volunteer Center. The Mauritius Mediathek also offers philosophical workshops for school classes, providing a platform for students to explore questions like "Who am I?" under guidance.
Experienced readers will bring the stories to life, making scenes dance and words ring, ensuring a captivating experience for all attendees. So, mark your calendars and join in the celebration of the joy of reading during the Storytelling Week in Wiesbaden.
