The Knirps Meeting invites parents with children aged 0 to 3 years to a relaxed, free encounter. On June 18, 2026, families will meet in the Municipal Daycare for Children and Family Center Hugostraße in Gelsenkirchen-Buer in the morning to exchange ideas in a calm atmosphere and experience a valuable start to the day together.

Quality time with real added value

This is about more than just a meeting: The Knirps Meeting creates space for discussions about development, care, and nutrition in early childhood. A protected framework is created for young families, where questions can be openly addressed and everyday life with babies or toddlers becomes noticeably easier.

Child-friendly, approachable, and practical

The offer is geared towards the needs of families with very small children. Especially in the first years of life, orientation, trust, and appropriate exchange with other parents are essential. The meeting supports this development with a low-threshold, family-friendly format that focuses on closeness, safety, and fun learning in everyday life.

A place for exchange and relief

The event is organized by the Family Promotion/ Family Education team of the city of Gelsenkirchen. The municipal family centers offer a variety of programs for children, parents, and entire families in Gelsenkirchen, following a clear educational and support mandate.

The Knirps Meeting is designed for parents with children aged 0 to 3 years, takes place without registration, and is free of charge. According to the event information, the meeting is canceled during school holidays and on public holidays. This makes planning simple and transparent for families.
