German Story Night 2019

Story Night was another lovely event at Spielwelt this year. Children and their families enjoyed sharing delicious food for dinner, while chatting and playing in the playground.

We then moved indoors for the main attraction: the songs and stories.

Paul got us all singing “Meine Haende sind verschwunden”, with the actions of course, and accompanied us with his ukelele.

Then Tatjana tooks us all on a bear hunt with all the funny noises and actions; and Johanna had us giggling at a story about slippers.

To finish the evening, Torsten and Otmar entertained us all with some hilarious puppets who had the children rolling in the aisles with laughter.

Everyone pitched in to help clean up after the event, and all agreed we had enjoyed a lovely evening.
