This group is meant for parents who are raising their children to speak English as a second native language in (or near) Bielefeld. Most activities are organised by me, Heddwen. I am a mum of a 5 and 8-year-old hoping to get more English-speaking input into their lives. I organise events like Halloween, pot-luck picnics, meetups with English activities and games for the kids, and story-time at the Bielefeld library. By now we have a lovely group of regulars, and quite a few families who join once in a while, meaning each meetup is fun and lively.
If you want to be added to the WhatsApp group, please send your number and a bit of information about you to my email address: info (at) heddwennewton.com. You can also leave a comment below (I won’t publish it – I’ll just get back to you and then delete the comment.)
