**BABYS (0-1) um 15.30Uhr** Musikalische Früherziehung für Babys (im Alter von 0 bis 1) Musik, Melodie, Rhythmus, Klang und Geräusche spielen schon von Geburt an eine wichtige Rolle. Gemeinsames Musizieren ist für Babys "Nahrung" für Körper, Seele und Geist. Deswegen möchten wir zusammen mit Eltern (oder Bezugspersonen) und ihren Babys singen, musizieren, Klänge erleben sowie tanzen und viel Freude mit Kniereiterliedern, Wiegenliedern, aber auch Lieder für die eigene Körpererfahrung haben. Zum Tanzen singen und hören wir Bewegungssongs oder auch klassische Stücke. Die Babys probieren sich während Klanggeschichten mit den Instrumenten, die im offenen Wohnzimmer zur Verfügung stehen, aus. **KLEINKINDER (1-3) um 16.20Uhr** Kleinkinder (1-3) mit ihren Eltern sind herzlich eingeladen ins Offene Wohnzimmer zum gemeinsamen Singen und Musizieren! Musik, Melodie, Rhythmus, Klang und Geräusche spielen schon von Geburt an eine wichtige Rolle. Gemeinsames Musizieren ist für Kinder "Nahrung" für Körper, Seele und Geist.

Das Interesse der Kinder an allem was klingt und singt wollen wir in unserem Musikkurs aufgreifen. Dabei geht es um die kreative Entdeckung der Klänge und Töne, die Förderung der eigenen Stimme und das Erleben von Rhythmus und Bewegung. Die Instrumente, die uns im offenen Wohnzimmer zur Verfügung stehen, sollen die Kinder mitunter kennen- und spielen lernen. In familiärer Atmosphäre möchten wir den Kinder in diesem Kurs ein Grundverständnis von Musik vermittelt, nicht aber das konkrete Noten lesen wie es bspw. im Klaviereinzelunterricht oder in der Schule der Fall sein kann. Im Vordergrund stehen Spiel und Spaß am Musizieren. Für alle Kurse gilt: \*\*\* Keine Anmeldung erforderlich. \*\*\* Teilnahme auf Spendenbasis Gesa ist Musikerin, Sängerin, Gesangspädagogin und zertifizierte Singleiterin für Heilsames Singen. Nach über 20 Jahren als Opern- und Konzertsängerin liegt ihr Fokus heute auf dem musikalischen Früherziehung.

In diesem Kurs beschäftigen wir uns mit verschiedenen Texten aus unterschiedlichen Bereichen. Das können u.a. kurze Geschichten, Gedichte, Zeitungsartikel, Kolumnen oder Videos sein. Immer sind es Themen, die uns gefallen, die wir besonders interessant, wichtig oder manchmal auch richtig schlecht finden. Gemeinsam versuchen wir die Position der Autor*in, den Stil und die Argumentationsstruktur zu verstehen. Dazu diskutieren wir über das, was wir verstehen, welche Meinung wir zu dem Thema haben oder welche Fragen offen bleiben.
Gerne könnt ihr uns auch Themenvorschläge mitbringen oder zuschicken.
Der Kurs richtet sich an interessierte Menschen mit einem B2-Niveau (oder so ähnlich), die Lust haben sich weiter mit der deutschen Sprache zu beschäftigen und ihren Wortschatz zu erweitern.
Die Termine sind sporadisch.

Hi! Welcome to Thought Experiments in Pubs - Berlin edition, where you get to have deep conversations with people you've never met. The topic will be free will. I'll post comment on the day for the thought experiments. **Location:** [Atopia Kaffeehaus, Prenzlauer Allee 187, 10405 Berlin](https://maps.app.goo.gl/Ukuup9CTrmedrB6f9) * Please consider that the locations we visit do not charge us for our booking, so in return, please make sure to show your appreciation by buying drinks or snacks. 🍻 * If you're signed up but can't make the event, please cancel so someone else can take your spot 🙏 * Make sure you check the right address, there is a sister pub nearby and it's not that one ☝️ **The idea:** A chance to meet and talk at a 'deeper' level, and skip the 'small talk'. **How will it work?** We will have a set of 'Thought Experiments', short, philosophical scenarios and questions, which will be discussed in groups. The conversation will flow freely, there are no strict rules, simply share and discuss your perspectives on the given topic. The thought experiments will be posted here ahead of the event. **Who should come?** Everyone! We believe that the more perspectives, the richer the conversation. This group is not about being experts in philosophy, it is about *doing* philosophy. That is, bringing our various life experiences and lenses on the world to group discussions about the human experience, the nature of reality... etc. **Do I need to bring anything?** No! Just an open, inquisitive mind. We will do 3 rounds of discussions. After the event, I would love to hear your feedback on the session. The thought experiments we will discuss are around the theme of the day. Prompts will be posted here on the day of the event. See you soon! \- Dirk *Thought Experiments in Pubs Berlin is inspired by [Thought Experiments in Pubs London](https://www.meetup.com/thought-experiments-in-pubs/), which originated in 2023 as a social experiment to get people together to connect at a deeper level.
