Mum in Berlin

#july2025 July flew by so fast I honestly don’t know where it went - and I can’t believe it’s already August!! 😱 Summer in Berlin wasn’t exactly spoiling us weather-wise, but honestly, I rarely let that bother me 😂 So what happened? I kicked off the month with a little getaway to France with my husband - it was amazing. We explored the stunning Gorges du Verdon and wandered through lavender fields (all thanks to my father-in-law who bravely stayed with the kids and totally nailed it 🙌). Back in Berlin, I continued going to Lifted and absolutely loved it - kinda sad I have a summer break now 😂 Then I headed to Łódź to visit my sister and finally meet her adorable baby boy - totally smitten from the first moment 💛 We also went on a trip to Chemnitz and had such a good time there. And then - summer break! We kicked it off with a beautiful wedding of my husband’s friend, where we sang a traditional song we’d been preparing for months (who knew I’d be that nervous?!). I think it went okay 😅 After the wedding, we jumped on a train to Zakopane - the forecast promised non-stop rain but somehow we’ve had sunshine and it’s been gorgeous. The kids are doing a day camp and we get to hike in the mountains - I fall asleep every night from pure physical tiredness, and it feels soooo good. And now… it’s August already!? Tomorrow we’re off again and this month will be packed with travels – can’t wait for what’s ahead! ✨

#chemnitz #chemnitzmitkindern ✨ Chemnitz – European Capital of Culture 2025 ✨ Just 2.5 hours by train from Berlin, and what a great weekend trip it turned out to be! We loved the creative vibe, post-industrial charm, and all the cultural events happening right now. 🏡 Where we stayed? At Jugendherberge Chemnitz @jugendherberge – and it was such a good choice for families! ✔ Centrally located – perfect for exploring on foot ✔ Housed in an old Umformwerk building (industrial history turned into a hostel – love it!) ✔ Simple, comfortable rooms and a fresh breakfast to start the day ✔ Nice terrace for parents, a playroom for kids, and even a TV-free policy in the rooms – more time to actually betogether. (There’s a common TV room if you want 😉) //Werbung 🎨 What we did? – Visited the @begehungen.festival – an international art festival held in unusual locations. This year it takes place at the former HKW Chemnitz-Nord (until 17.08). – Explored the @industriemuseum_chemnitz , with fantastic exhibitions about the city’s industrial history and fun little booklets for kids. – Relaxed at Pelzmühle park with its playground, stream (kids loved splashing!), and met Alvin, the world’s largest Räuchermann. – Played at another lovely playground in Schlossteichpark. – Strolled around the city, enjoying its mix of old architecture, new creative spots, and laid-back atmosphere. @chemnitz2025 surprised us – a city transforming its industrial past into creative spaces that really serve people. If you’re looking for a weekend full of art, culture, and family-friendly fun – this is it! 💛

#berlinwithkids #berlinmitkindern 🛝 What I really love about Berlin’s playgrounds is how diverse they are! Some are simple, others truly outstanding – but I always feel like there’s a lot of thought behind their design. They’re usually so well planned and creative. Even though my kids are slowly growing out of being super excited about playgrounds, I personally still enjoy exploring them – and Berlin has so many! I always try to stay up to date and check if a new one pops up somewhere. Recently, we visited five new-to-us playgrounds, and here are the details in case you want to check them out too: 🔹 Heißluftballon-Spielplatz – Gellertstraße 10, 12489 Berlin Inside the hot-air balloon there’s a climbing net! Perfect to combine with a walk around Adlershof – so many interesting buildings to spot there. 🔹 Spielplatz mit Kletterfelsen – Kaiserin-Augusta-Allee 101, 10553 Berlin Great for older kids who love a challenge – climbing those rocks wasn’t easy! But don’t worry, there’s also a more “normal” playground area. 🔹 Bergbau-Spielplatz Goslarer Platz Another beautiful creation by @zimmer.obst_spielraum – always such unique designs! 🔹 Spielplatz im Fennpfuhlpark “Hamsterkäfig” I really love the shape and form of this one – looks amazing, right? 🔹 Spielplatz – Zingster Str. 23, 13051 Berlin A small playground, but with an interesting shape and some cool activity elements. And there is a very nice playground nearby that I will show you soon :). Do you have any favorite playgrounds in Berlin? #spielplatz #playground #momlife #spaß #spielen #sommer #lebenmitkindern #berlinwithkids#kinder #familie #mamablogger#summer #berlinmitkind #lebenmitkind#rutsche#zeitmitkindern#mamalebenpur #draussenistamschönsten#placzabaw #berlinerleben#berlinliebe#berlinblog#spielplatzzeit#kinderglück#kinderspiel#kinderzeit#playgrounddesign#playgrounds#berlinspielplatz

#luthershochzeit #lutherstadt Wondering if Luther’s Wedding in Wittenberg is worth a visit? It absolutely is! 🎉 Here’s a little recap from this year’s festival - and let me tell you, it was fantastic. We’re already planning to return next year, this time with proper costumes because the whole town dressed up and it looked amazing! What I loved most was the atmosphere: people truly enjoying themselves, a sense of togetherness 🤝, and so many attractions - yet it never felt overwhelming. Everything was beautifully coordinated: medieval games ⚔️ for kids and adults, a whole area just for children 🏰, concerts 🎶, performances 🎭, the festive wedding procession, traditional crafts 🛠️, a giant wedding cake 🍰 for everyone to try, delicious food 🥘, and of course, the charming town of Lutherstadt itself 🏡. We had such a great time - our kids didn’t even want to go back to the hotel at night! One of my favorite moments was the long table where everyone gathered to feast together 🍽️. Wonderfully organized - truly recommend! //Werbung #lutherswedding #medievalfestival #medieval #historyalive #reenactment #medievaltimes #Reenactment #medievalfestival #historyalive #weddinginspiration #Lutherstadt #Wittenberg #visitgermany #germanytravel #familytravel #travelwithkids #kidstravel

#june2025 #berlinwithkids 🌸June flew by - I honestly don’t know when or how. As always, it’s only when I look at the photos that I realize how much happened 😂. And a lot happened, which is why I feel like I really need a bit of rest. The summer holidays are just around the corner, and I can’t wait - I’m heading off again for five weeks and fully intend to rest a bit. ☀️In June, we visited Austria and Lutherstadt Wittenberg. And we had there a super nice time. 🪩Mira had her birthday - how is she already seven?! 📕 I spent half the month studying for an exam, which was super stressful because I hadn’t studied for anything in a long time. But I passed it yesterday, and besides feeling a huge sense of relief, I also feel really proud of myself - and now I’m already thinking about what to learn next 😂. One huge bonus: Berlin’s beautiful libraries are amazing for studying. 🚲 I also had a team event at work - it went great! We cycled around a lake and had a picnic. There were a few playground visits, a photo walk with @konaction (thank you so much for the first photo ❤️), and we also went to Lange Nacht der Wissenschaften. I really regret not going in previous years - it was amazing! Oh, and I’ve started working out again, and it’s going so well. The best part? Feeling my body get stronger! So, that’s probably it. I’m curious to see what July brings - hopefully, it’ll be just a tiny bit calmer 😂. #familylife #momof3kids #busymomlife #berlinmitkindern
