In the organizer's words:

Time: always on the first Sunday of the month from 11 am to 1 pm (in 2025: 7.9., 5.10., 2.11., 7.12. and in 2026: 4.1., 1.2., 1.3., 12.4. (due to Easter Sunday), 3.5., 7.6., 5.7., 2.8., 6.9., 4.10.)

Come along with at least one adult - whether with parents, grandparents or another trusted person. All are welcome. Real playtime in nature awaits you: building booths with sticks, observing animals, creating nature artworks, balancing, romping, resting or simply seeing what there is to discover outside. One of our nature educators will accompany you with creative game ideas.

You are welcome to bring a small picnic for refreshments. And remember to bring weatherproof and sturdy clothing and shoes - we are outdoors!

Especially for families with children aged 4-12. Younger siblings are of course also welcome.

Free of charge. No registration required.

Attention! Due to illness, the Wilde Familie in Bochum Mitte on 07.12. is unfortunately canceled! However, the family games meeting in Herne-Holsterhausen will take place!
