8 tips for parents and children in August in Freiburg – Freiburg

Hot, hotter, summer 2022. It’s been widely read lately that this will be the coldest summer of the rest of our lives. That’s why there are not only event tips, but also tips on how to do something for the climate with children.

Everyone is talking about climate change and every small change counts. Even though children are the last people who can do anything about the current state of our planet, they are the ones who will be most affected by the consequences.

We can implement some things together with our children in everyday life.

  • Leave the car at home and ride your bikes as often as possible. This is good for health and for the environment.

  • When eating ice cream, do without a spoon and cup and use a waffle. Even if the waffle ends up in the trash, that’s better than a single-use plastic cup. After all, the cone will decompose in a maximum of five days, whereas the plastic sundae takes at least 20 years.

  • “Without a straw, please”: Do not use a straw when ordering drinks in cafés and restaurants.

  • Design the front and back while painting – a reversible picture, so to speak. It is best to create an extra box for you and your children in which to collect “old” paper. Letters, invitations and so on written on one side can often be painted on the other side.

  • Buy and sell new clothes and toys at the flea market, on Ebay or in second-hand shops, or exchange clothes and toys with family friends or in kindergarten or school. You can also write on birthday invitations that you are also happy about used gifts and that not everything has to be new. It’s now totally normal for us that gifts are often needed at Christmas and for birthdays.

  • Borrow books from the library or from friends.

These are small things that we can easily implement in everyday life and that many of you are probably already doing. If you have more tips, please write to us!

In August it usually gets a little quieter in the event area. The theaters are taking a break from the season and the party and squat season is also coming to an end. But the holiday offer is all the more colorful.

Freiburger Puppenbühne: Kasper and the castle ghost

On August 21st there will be two performances by the Freiburger Puppenbühne in Obermattenbad in Gundelfingen. Two stories about Kasper and his adventures are told on the sunbathing lawn outside the small swimming pool. Even without a puppet theater, the swimming pool is worth a visit.

So that the Count doesn’t have to sell Eulenfels Castle, Kasper, together with you and with Bello’s help, goes in search of a secret treasure that is said to be hidden in the castle. How does he know that and will he manage to find the treasure with the help of the spectators? You have to find out for yourself.
