Language promotion that brings joy

Here families experience early reading promotion up close: Singing, finger games, and the joint viewing of picture books create initial learning experiences full of sound, rhythm, and a spirit of discovery. The City of Cologne describes the format as a program for language and sensory promotion for the little ones.

Discover with all senses

Especially nice for parents and babies: A colorful surprise book box invites for viewing, touching, and reading aloud. This creates a calm, child-friendly space where curiosity, bonding, and shared wonder are in focus.
