| Wann hat es angefangen? | Our playgroup was founded in 2008 by a mom of 3 kids who is very experienced in running groups for kids (including playgroups). What started out as a small group has now become a major English-speaking playgroup in the Stuttgart area with a current membership of about 50 families! |
| Wie funktioniert es? |
The main focus of our playgroup is to give our kids the opportunity to hear and speak English in a well organized, but yet relaxed social environment!
That’s why we ask everyone to speak English only (to the other moms/dads and to the kids, including your own) when we meet! We don’t want any German to be spoken, because it is all around us anyway. It is essential for us that your kids understand (and speak) English. Therefore, English has to be the (or one of the) language(s) spoken to your kids at home! These groups give our kids and us the opportunity to sing, play, do crafts, chat and have fun in English! Story-telling and a snack time are included in our activities as well. Because singing is very important to us, the VIP-songbook (that every member receives) contains many songs already, and we add new songs and finger plays all the time! We also offer special activities such as picnics or trips! And we celebrate Easter, Halloween and Christmas together! From time to time we have a “night out” without our kids! All these activities give us the chance to get to know all members and their families! |
| Wie funktioniert die Gruppe weitermachen? | As we have a flexible agenda, our members are welcome to make suggestions and to get involved! |
