Reading festival in Heilbronn: The Frederick Day awakens the joy of reading!

In Heilbronn an exciting week started on Monday: The nationwide "Frederick-Tag" was launched to bring the children closer to reading to the children in Baden-Württemberg. This campaign, which will take place in the city library by Friday, is primarily aimed at school classes. Here through various reading actions, reading skills and the fun of reading in children should be promoted from the first to sixth grade.

The "Frederick-Tag" has its origins in the well-known children's book figure Frederick, a mouse that collects words, colors and sun rays, while her friends collect a supplies for winter. In order to counter the long, gray winter days, Frederick uses his collection to cheer up his friends. This creative idea has now given the impetus for a nationwide initiative that aims to inspire children for reading and bring them closer to the world of books.

Various activities in all of Baden-Württemberg

The celebrations for Frederick-Day are not only limited to Heilbronn. There are numerous campaigns in various cities and municipality in all of Baden-Württemberg. For example, numerous reading events take place in Bad Waldsee, Donaueschingen and Mannheim. In Boxberg in the Main-Tauber district, a tour of the media library is on the program. These events should actively stimulate children and offer many different literary insights.

The initiative is supported by schools, kindergarten and libraries and has now been a fixture in the calendar of educational funding in Baden-Württemberg since its introduction in 1997. The participating institutions offer readings that are carried out by committed reading sponsors to inspire the children for the books and stories that are waiting for them.

For more information and to see all special offers during the Frederick Tag, interested parties can visit the respective website of the libraries or the website of the state government. This type of initiatives underlines the commitment of the educational institutions to convey a love of literature to children that lasts for a lifetime.

In times of digital media and a fast -moving everyday life, it is more important than ever to introduce the children to the world of reading and to promote their imagination. Frederick-Tag offers a perfect opportunity to bring children to reading in a playful way and to bring you closer to the infinite opportunities that books offer.
