Take-home Christmas Activity Packets

We aren’t able to have our normal library activities and special holiday workshops this year so we have made up some fun take-home Christmas Activity Packets!

We have color pages for the little ones and packets for the bigger ones with I SPY, Emoji Pictionary, a Scavenger Hunt, and a color by letter page!

So when you come to the library, starting tomorrow until Christmas break, you can pick one up at the front desk and have some fun at home!
If you can’t make it into CEL we have added some Christmas stories for pre-schoolers and school children to our virtual story time so you can join in with the seasonal fun. https://celstuttgart.de/books/virtual-story-time/ If you need the password please ask info@celstuttgart.de

World Book Day – read around the world with us on March 7!

Open a book, turn a page – and be whisked away to another time and place. Books truly are a window to the world. Experience the joy and power of reading with us as we celebrate World Book Day on March 7 at the library:

  • Explore our collection of over 8,000 titles and media items
  • Hear readings of selected stories from around the world throughout the afternoon
  • Take the story further with fun crafts and activities – including an oversized banner everyone can help create and decorate
  • Treat yourself to some goodies at our cake stand… because it’s no fun reading on an empty stomach.

World Book Day runs from 1-4pm, while the library will remain open until 5pm. So you’ll have plenty of time to return, renew and check out books. Hope to see you there!

CEL will be closed on Saturday 22nd February and Saturday 29th February due to the school holidays. We will be open on Friday 28th February as usual.
