This programme is even extended at Easter: young and old can paint Easter eggs together or make seed bombs, with which they can easily take nature from there into the city. The puppet theatre Vom kleinen Volke teaches young guests about the wonders of nature and in the Kinderkramerey , the whole family can make things with sustainable materials. A lovingly curated excursion where you can celebrate Easter sustainably.

The current exhibition entitled "SWEATING & FREEZING" is all about fluctuations: in our own feelings, the seasons, the weather or our heat balance. Why is the world constantly in motion? Why does sweating make sense? And how are the seasons created in the first place? During this informative Easter excursion, even the grown-ups can learn a thing or two.
When: Friday to Sunday from 10 am to 6 pm

Experience the Frog King in a completely new way at the Galli play-along theatre
A princess, a golden ball, a fountain, a frog. Most people know the story of the enchanted prince who is unceremoniously smashed against the wall by his chosen one. It's not quite that wild at the Galli play-along theatre, but it's certainly exciting. The special thing about the performances at Galli is that the children don't just sit still and watch, but can take part in the action themselves. The actors, who slip from one role to the next on stage, listen to the children's calls and integrate their ideas into the story. At many points, the young guests are also allowed on stage themselves. Look forward to a lively theatre performance!
When: Saturday at 2 pm and Sunday at 12 pm
Where: Galli Theatre Berlin, Oranienburger Straße 32, Mitte
