About this plan
What city do babies dream of as they ride through the streets in someone's arms? That question sparks the workshop "Las formas de la ciudad imaginada," a gathering built for families with young children who want to see Bogotá in a fresh way.
The activity draws on Francisco Tonucci's view of childhood and urban space. The point is not just to walk around. It is to explore the city as a place you imagine and reshape through play. With movement, reading, and hands-on shapes, each family spots circles, squares, and triangles in the places they live. Then they use those forms to build new spaces: a plaza, a park, a house shaped by their own wishes.
The session is free and takes place at the Biblioteca Pública Carlos E. Restrepo in the Antonio Nariño area. It belongs to BibloRed's Territorio de Infancias series.
