Building Allowed: Creative Workshop Fun for Kids in Gelsenkirchen

Workshop Atmosphere, Children's Laughter, and Creative Ideas in the Children's Laboratory

In the Children's Laboratory at the Alfred-Zingler-Haus, children and adolescents aged 10 to 14 discover how a personal idea transforms into a self-built playground object. Through filing, sawing, bending, drilling, and constructing, the workshop combines practical learning experiences with shared time and visible success stories.

Create Something New with Your Own Hands

Under the guidance of Karl Rosenwald, participants will experiment, plan, and build. They will develop individual items that can be played with. Curiosity, creativity, and independent work are at the forefront. The age-appropriate cultural backpack offer creates space for children to explore materials and find their own solutions.

Learning Fun During the Autumn Holidays

The Children's Laboratory promotes fine motor skills, spatial thinking, and problem-solving abilities in a child-friendly manner. Each step of work becomes a small discovery journey: selecting materials, changing shapes, making connections, and testing their own creations. This leads to a practical learning experience filled with joy, wonder, and pride.

Build, Discover, and Play Together

From October 26 to October 30, the workshop will take place daily from 1:00 PM to 5:00 PM. The appointment on Thursday, October 29, 2026, is suitable for families whose children wish to be creatively active during the autumn holidays. An excursion is planned for Wednesday, October 28.

A Free Family Experience

Participation in this cultural backpack offer is free of charge. The focus is on a safe, guided working method, trying things together, and the possibility of transforming one’s own ideas into tangible results.

Conclusion: The Children's Laboratory offers children and adolescents a varied holiday time with tools, materials, and plenty of space for their ideas. Those who enjoy tinkering, building, and discovering will experience a special family event at the Alfred-Zingler-Haus filled with children's laughter, learning fun, and self-made playground objects.
