Painting Springerle: Great Learning Fun for Little Explorers in Amberg

Painting Springerle: Creative Time for Children at the Amberg City Museum

An afternoon full of fun learning, children's laughter, and shared time: At the Amberg City Museum, children playfully discover the stories behind traditional Springerle, solve tricky puzzles in the museum, and then create their own works of art from dough. Age-appropriate guidance, safe supervision, and educational value – thus, the museum becomes a family experience.

Wonder, puzzle, create – a tour with Aha moments

At the beginning, the children explore carefully selected museum areas suited for their age and discover exciting details with curiosity and joy. The puzzle tasks promote observation, language, and problem-solving. After that, it’s time for creativity: Own Springerle will be painted – demanding fine motor skills, sensibly tangible, and proudly take-home.

Age-appropriate and safe: good conditions for families

The program targets children aged 6 to 12 years and lasts 120 minutes. The museum works with tested museum educational concepts, clear group rules, and well-visible contact persons. Barrier-free areas, an elevator, and a changing room facilitate families' visits; cloakroom and museum courtyard offer relaxed break spaces.

Family-friendly infrastructure

Short distances, family-friendly opening hours, nearby parking facilities at the Amberg Congress Center as well as access to the Amberg train station make the journey uncomplicated. Drinks, museum shop, and seating in the courtyard complete the experience – ideal for siblings and friend groups.
