A special storytelling time for all senses
When words become visible and stories turn into a shared experience, an inclusive family experience is created in Erlangen for small and large visitors. During the storytime in spoken and sign language, Benjamin Müller, a deacon of the sign language community in Bavaria, tells a biblical story for hearing and sign language children and adults.
Listen, marvel, and participate
The approximately 30-minute narration invites families to listen, dream, and participate. Language and gestures combine to create a child-friendly learning experience that awakens curiosity and promotes mutual understanding. Children experience that stories can be told and received in different ways.
Inclusive family experience in the church
The event is aimed at children and adults of all ages. Through sign language and the presence of a sign language interpreter, the storytelling time is designed to be barrier-free. This creates a safe space where children's laughter, attention, and community can find their place.
Age-appropriate and family-friendly
Short stories, a calm atmosphere, and the opportunity to participate make the offering particularly suitable for families. The combination of biblical storytelling, visual language, and shared time supports children's development, expression, and social participation. Parents observe their children being attentive, curious, and fully engaged in the narrative.
An afternoon full of closeness and learning fun
The storytelling time offers families a conscious moment away from everyday life. Children are allowed to dream, ask questions, and discover the story in their own way. At the same time, the inclusive format demonstrates how naturally hearing and sign language people can share a common event.
Conclusion: Families can look forward to a short, warm, and inclusive storytelling time with biblical impulses, gestures, and space for participation. Those who wish to experience shared time, learning fun, and a special form of storytelling will find in the church of St. Peter and Paul a fitting place for this family experience.
