Every Monday, Deichman Grünerløkka invites you to Baby Monday. Upstairs in the hall we put out toys and mats for the little ones, make coffee for parents and set the scene for fun and a chat. It is an informal drop-in for all mums and dads with babies. On the first Monday of the month there are also two rounds of “Baby på Bib”, a musical reading circle for parents and babies. You are very welcome!

Note! Because of building noise at the library, baby singing has moved to Gamle Munch! See you there! Our children's librarian plays with songs, rhythms and movement. Baby singing is a musical experience that uses several senses, helps develop language and body awareness, and stimulates the child's emotions. THERE ARE TWO ROUNDS, AT 11:00 and 12:00 – each session lasts about 30 minutes. MAX 30 BABIES. The doors to the hall open 15 minutes before. Suitable for children aged 0–2. No sign-up, first come, first served! Prams must be parked

🎭 Show
150 kr
👶 from 5 years

In an unusually ordinary office in a small, unusual town, Emy and Yme work for the strict boss Mye. Every day at the office is the same, and when every day is the same it can get rather boring – unless you use your imagination. There is just one problem: you are not allowed to play at work. Come into the office and meet Emy and Yme, who do everything they can to make work a bit more fun. Can they keep it hidden from Mye, the very strict boss, and what happens when they daydream in the middle of an important message?
