Crawling Group in Gelsenkirchen: Great everyday fun for the little ones

Crawling Group in Gelsenkirchen: Playing, singing and growing together

On Thursday, July 16, 2026, the municipal crawling group invites families with children up to 2 years old to a loving break at the AWO Integration Agency. From 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM, parents and children will experience a family event with movement, music, first games, and valuable impulses for daily life with baby and toddler.

Playful support for the youngest

The crawling group is designed to be child-friendly and age-appropriate. Varied play, singing, and movement activities naturally promote motor skills, language, and bonding. For small children, a safe environment is created where curiosity and children's laughter are the focus.

Family time with educational value

Parents receive practical tips on how to strengthen the relationship with their child in everyday life. The offer combines time together with expert support from the family midwives of the city of Gelsenkirchen. This results in a valuable learning experience for families seeking closeness, orientation, and exchange.

Healthy breakfast and medical support

Another advantage is the joint preparation of a healthy breakfast. This not only strengthens family life but also familiarizes children with good eating habits early on. On the second Thursday of each month, a pediatrician from the health department will be present, and at regular intervals, a dentist provides helpful tips on early dental care.

Simply come by, no registration required

Participation is free of charge and no registration is necessary. This makes the visit particularly uncomplicated for families looking for a low-threshold offer with professional support. For questions, the family midwives team is available for assistance via phone.

Conclusion: The crawling group at the AWO Integration Agency combines fun, health knowledge, and valuable parent-child time into a trusting family experience. Anyone looking for a lovingly supervised morning for the little ones should experience this free offer live.
