Gnome Market and Open House Day in Bielefeld-Schildesche
On Saturday, November 7, 2026, the Waldorf Kindergarten Bielefeld invites you to the lovingly designed Gnome Market and Open House Day. From 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM, families can discover handmade treasures, enjoy coffee and cake, and learn about the educational work of the kindergarten.
Handmade Treasures and Winter Market Atmosphere
The Gnome Market combines regional market atmosphere with personal craftsmanship. Among the lovingly crafted offerings, visitors will find special little things, gift ideas, and decorative pieces for the upcoming Advent season. The shopping experience stands for individuality instead of mass-produced goods and for direct contact with the people behind the products.
Puppet Theater and Children's Activities
A charming puppet show and colorful children's activities make the market a family-friendly experience. Children playfully discover new impressions while parents browse in a relaxed atmosphere and engage in conversation.
Coffee, Cake, and Encounters
Coffee and cake invite a cozy break. The scent of freshly brewed drinks and sweet baked goods accompanies the afternoon and creates space for encounters, exchange, and shared enjoyment.
Insights into Waldorf Education and Kindergarten Life
Parallel to the market, the Waldorf Kindergarten opens its doors. At the information stand, interested families will gain insights into the kindergarten and the principles of Waldorf education. Thus, the event combines a market visit, a family afternoon, and first-hand information.
The Waldorf Kindergarten Association Bielefeld e.V. creates a special afternoon for families in Bielefeld-Schildesche with the Gnome Market. Visitors can expect a warm market atmosphere with crafts, children’s programs, culinary breaks, and personal insights into educational work. Anyone wishing to experience regional diversity and community engagement should visit the event live on-site.
