Join the adventure with the two most curious mice in the land!

What a lot there is to see in the city! Cars, squares, traffic lights, big buildings, but if you look a little closer: what do you see? Is that a gnome disguise? Is there sometimes a mouse cafe under that manhole cover?

The Picture Book Festival is a wonderful experience world for toddlers and preschoolers: two performances, complemented by the wonderful colorful playground in which to play to your heart's content.

During the festival you can watch Sam & Julia (3-7 years), our new performance about the famous mice from the Mouse House by Karina Schaapman. Or learn all about gnomes in the performance Het Kabouterboek (2-6 years) at 10:00 & 11:15 am, based on the picture book of the same name by Loes Riphagen.

From 9 a.m. playtime in the foyer

From 9 a.m. playtime in the foyer

In the foyer is a colorful play city. Build your own skyscraper, have fun in the playhouses, disguise yourself like the gnomes do from The Gnome Book and build a beautiful road, until it's time to go to the show!

10:30 a.m.: Sam & Julia (3+)

In the show Sam & Julia, join the adventure with the two most curious mice in the land!

Julia is new to The Mouse House. Soon she meets Sam, who shows her the best places in The Mouse House. In the rag-and-bone man's attic, they find all kinds of wonderful things. They let their imaginations run wild and build their own story with everything they find there. Thus Julia soon feels comfortable in her new place to live. In the attic, they discover that you can feel at home anywhere, when you make something of it together!
