Under the theme “What’s good for me and what’s good for the world,” the young visitors follow the path to a healthy, plant-based, seasonal, and regional diet.

From Superpowers to the Water Footprint:
A hands-on journey into the world of food
To explore the connection between food production, shopping choices, and the impact on one’s own body, the exhibition features various interactive stations.
In the “supermarket,” children can “shop” to their heart’s content and then head to the “kitchen” to learn how the foods they’ve chosen are prepared and stored. In the “dining room,” curious food explorers discover how their height relates to the right amount of food to eat.
Tired and sluggish, or happy and full of energy? In the “Kids’ Room,” food awakens superpowers. There, young explorers also meet fun “stars”: Katy Carrot, Bro Cooli, and Egg Sheeran share tasty tips for a balanced diet.
In addition, the interactive exhibition offers exciting behind-the-scenes insights into food production:
In the “Greenhouse,” for example, children can explore the water footprint of foods and discover their impact on the climate.
Smart Berry, Mega Carrot, or Master Corn: How much have you “eaten” your way to wisdom?
Anyone who has completed the entire course and solved the tricky bonus challenges can test their knowledge at the ticket counter: Here, visitors find out whether they’ve “eaten their way” to becoming a Lax Leek, a Smart Berry, a Mega Carrot, or a Master Corn.
For even more eye-opening experiences exploring the diverse world of nutrition, the Children’s Museum “Unterm Dach” has a wide-ranging program on the menu for school classes, groups, and families: From cooking to language workshops—here, everything engages both the mind and the stomach to explore food and drink with all the senses.
