STEM Reading in Cologne: Books, Experiments and Big Questions from Children
When children marvel, ask questions, and try things out for themselves, a reading hour becomes a special family experience. During the STEM Reading at the Sülz district library, exciting stories are combined with small experiments and creative activities around mathematics, computer science, natural sciences, and technology.
Reading opens the door to the world of discovery
On Friday, November 13, 2026, children aged 4 to 8 will experience a child-friendly event with books and experiments. Stories provide a familiar entry point, while subsequent activities capture curiosity and invite participation.
Experimenting, crafting, and learning together
After the reading, there will be active crafting and experimenting. Children are allowed to discover connections, develop their own hypotheses, and share their observations. This age-appropriate learning experience strengthens joy in language, concentration, creativity, and understanding of basic scientific concepts.
A warm family experience in the library
The Sülz district library offers a quiet and inviting environment for shared time. Among books, curious questions, and children's laughter, a sense of community arises that encourages families to continue the storytelling and research.
