Petronella Apfelmus: Enchanting puppet theater fun for little explorers
When a real apple tree witch receives a visit from curious twins, a fantastical family experience full of children's laughter, magical spells, and surprising turns begins in the garden. In the puppet theater Petronella Apfelmus, children from two years old experience a lovingly told story about friendship, curiosity, and living together with new neighbors.
An apple witch with heart and temperament
High up in an apple, Petronella Apfelmus lives in her cozy apple house. As the guardian of the garden, she loves tranquility and nature. However, the arrival of the Kuchenbrand family brings plenty of movement into her serene life. Lea and Luis wander curiously through the garden, initially causing some trouble.
Petronella tries to scare off the new neighbors with magical spells and cheeky witch antics. But her magic often goes awry, leading to many humorous moments that invite even the youngest viewers to be amazed and laugh.
Friendship, curiosity, and learning together
When Lea and Luis suddenly appear in Petronella's apple house, the situation changes. The little witch discovers that the two children are not as disruptive as she initially thought. The story conveys in a child-friendly manner how initial uncertainty can grow into trust and friendship.
The little apple men additionally bring a lot of movement and lovable chaos to the garden. They know about plants, repair everything that breaks, and curiously dismantle things that are unfamiliar to them. Thus, the puppet theater combines fantasy with an age-appropriate learning experience about nature, cohabitation, helpfulness, and the joy of discovery.
A delightful family experience for children from two years old
The performance, tailored for children from two years old, lasts about 50 minutes. The manageable duration supports a child-friendly attention span and creates a good environment for the first theater visit. Colorful characters, a fairy-tale garden world, and the immediate closeness of the puppet theater provide sensory impressions and shared time for the whole family.
