Bilderbuchkino: A Unique Children’s Film Experience in Siegburg
The Stadtbibliothek Siegburg offers a special monthly event called Bilderbuchkino, designed for children interested in picture books. This free activity takes place in the library’s children’s area and provides an engaging way for young audiences to connect with stories through film. Due to limited seating, registration is required at least one week in advance via the Vivenu ticketing system.
Event Details and Participation
Parents and children must both register for the event, and tickets—either digital or printed—should be presented upon entry. The library encourages families to have only one adult accompany each child to ensure accessibility for more participants. After the film, attendees can enjoy additional activities in the library until 5:00 PM, including drawing, playing, and exploring the collection. Borrowers with a library card can take books home to continue the storytelling experience.
The Story: Jim’s Sleepover Adventure
The featured story, Jim geht auf eine Übernachtungsparty!, follows a child’s excitement for a sleepover and the unexpected challenges that arise. Jim’s plans unravel as he faces setbacks like losing a game of “Mangotauchen” (a fictional game) and being forced to sit at the back during a listening activity. As his friends fall asleep one by one, the story humorously explores themes of adaptability and sibling solidarity. The tale emphasizes that enjoyment can still be found even when plans go awry.
Registration and Accessibility
Spaces for Bilderbuchkino are limited, and availability may change due to cancellations. The event is part of the library’s broader mission to foster a love of reading and creativity among children. Attendees are welcome to visit the library’s café or browse its collection before or after the screening.
