Crafting with Sheep Wool – Christkindlmarkt Traunstein Program

Christmas Magic to Touch: Crafting with Real Sheep Wool for the Whole Family

On Saturday, families will experience a warm family event at the Traunstein Christkindlmarkt: Children will shape small winter figures from soft sheep wool – lovingly guided by Christine König. Amidst lights, scents, and children's laughter, time spent together warms the heart.

Creative Learning Fun with Natural Materials

Soft sheep wool can be rolled, pulled, and shaped. Children discover age-appropriate sensory experiences, fine motor skills, and imagination. The activity is child-friendly, promotes development and self-efficacy, and conveys appreciation for natural materials.

Safe and Well-Supervised

The interactive activity takes place on the outdoor Christkindlmarkt stage. Parents stay nearby, support as needed, and enjoy the festive atmosphere at the same time. Open, manageable groups ensure overview and tranquility.

Family-Friendly Conditions

The Christkindlmarkt is centrally located at the town square. Public restrooms are available, among others, at Maxplatz, Karl-Theodor-Platz, and in the town hall. The square is paved with cobblestones; with some assistance, it works well with strollers and wheelchairs. Parking is available, among others, at the festival area; the city center is accessible on foot in just a few minutes. E-vehicles can park for free for three hours in Bavaria according to current regulations; local notices apply.

Advent Atmosphere in the Historic Town Center

Between St. Oswald Town Church and Jacklturm, decorated huts, music, and regional delicacies await. This makes creative crafting a sensory family experience filled with wonder, a sense of community, and shining children's eyes.

Conclusion

What can you expect? Two creative hours with real sheep wool, learning fun, and lots of heart – perfect for family time during Advent. Come by, discover the joy of creating, and take home small works of art.
