The children's game case is a hard case filled with various toys and coloring materials, some books, and much more, allowing your child to keep themselves meaningfully occupied while you go about your work. The contents of the case are suitable for children from 1½ years old up to elementary school age. The case is very easy to transport, as it is a normal travel suitcase that can be pulled behind you.

The case includes building blocks, a train set, a marble run, puzzles, audio games, a portable CD player with headphones, and books for different age groups. A play blanket can be used to provide your child with a larger play area on the floor.

If you need to take your child to the workplace, the children's game case provides meaningful activities for your child in your office.

The children's game case can also be used at events in your area (e.g. conferences).

The children's game case can be borrowed free of charge by all members of TU Dortmund University.

It is located in the Family Service of the Staff Unit Equal Opportunities, Family, and Diversity, August‑Schmidt‑Str. 1, Room 1.10.

It can be borrowed without much effort after a prior request by e-Mail.

When returning the children's game case, the case and its contents should be clean, and all accessories should be safely stored.

What do I have to pay attention to?

• Use of the children's game case is at your own risk.
• Unsupervised use of the KiKo is not permitted.
• The hard case is only for storing and transporting the play materials and should not be left for the child to play with. Please ensure that the case is not painted on or used for climbing, sitting in, or similar activities.
• Users are responsible for treating the children's game case and its contents with care.
• Using the children's game case does not mean that the room is child‑friendly or child‑safe, nor that the toys are suitable for your child. Please check whether the toys are appropriate for your child’s developmental stage and pay attention to possible hazards in your office (cables, drawers, sockets, etc.).

Use is also excluded in cases of severe febrile illness or infestation with transmissible parasites (head lice, fleas, etc.).
