Playfully gather nature knowledge

The event is aimed at nature-loving children aged 4 to 7 and is structured so that young visitors get to know the animals once outdoors, once indoors, once under a microscope, and once as a specimen. This varied approach strengthens curiosity, language, and observation skills, making species knowledge easily understandable for families.

Feel, smell, taste: learning with all senses

The sensory part of the program is particularly exciting: feeling, smelling, and tasting are expressly included. Such experiences leave a lasting impression on children because they actively grasp nature rather than just seeing it. For families, this results in a calm, valuable learning fun with real everyday relevance. ([bielefeld.jetzt](https://www.bielefeld.jetzt/node/1533012))

Why sheep are a strong topic for children

Sheep not only provide wool, but also play an important role in landscape care. This explains to children in an understandable way how animals and nature are interconnected. At the same time, the theme opens up perspectives for sustainable thinking, understanding animals, and respectful interaction with native species.
