Erzählabend

Kartenbande is a Berlin-based company creating question-and-fact card games designed to bring families and friends closer through conversation. Its games offer prompts and carefully selected information to help people share personal stories, explore common themes, and discover new perspectives beyond the small talk of everyday life. The brand’s first game, Baby Erzählabend, launched in February 2022 and is made for expectant parents, grandparents, friends, and anyone accompanying a baby’s early years.

Its cards combine concise facts based on research, studies, statistics, and scientific foundations with questions that everyone can answer, whether or not they have a child. The game is deliberately free of parenting advice, leaving room for individual experiences and open discussion. Kartenbande aims to create meaningful shared evenings where people feel heard and build connections through storytelling.

The company produces its cards in Germany, uses FSC-certified cardboard and seeks short delivery routes, and ships with plastic-free, sustainable materials. Customers can purchase its card games through the brand’s online shop
