The Kids’ Science Garden is a science center designed especially for children aged 5 to 13. A full visit takes about two hours, during which visitors experience four fascinating and imaginative stories focused on important scientific themes: The Story of the Body, The Story of the Home, The Story of the City, and The Story of the Earth. After exploring these four stories, visitors attend a science show, and finally, with the help of 3D glasses, they embark on an exciting scientific journey through the galaxy. Before the adventure begins, children watch an animation about Gulliver in the land of the tiny people and the giants. Through this animation and its hero, the main concepts presented in the Kids’ Science Garden are introduced in a child-friendly and engaging way.
The first part of the Kids’ Science Garden journey is The Story of the Body. The human body is full of mysteries, and in this section, children learn through play, storytelling, and interactive technology about cells, DNA, the immune system, and blood circulation. The Story of the Body consists of four parts: Jumping Platform, Cellular Beauty Viewer, Face Designer, and DNA Puzzle.
In The Story of the Home, children discover how science and scientific inventions play a role in their daily lives and the amazing ways science exists in every home. Here, they learn that their homes are filled with scientific wonders. This story includes sections such as the Robot World Cup, TV Studio, Power Connection, and Super Scanner.
The Story of the City explores the question: How does science make cities more comfortable and efficient places to live? In this section, children ride an electric car, learn how to charge it with electricity, and participate in a simulated car race. They also learn about telecommunication systems and how information is transmitted between different countries, as well as how mechanical energy can be transformed into electrical energy. Activities in this story include Urban Infrastructure Tunnel, Wind Turbine, Electric Car, and Network Observer.
In The Story of the Earth, children are invited to think about how science can help improve the condition of our planet. By watching footage of the polar regions, they learn about the effects of global warming and how humans are producing more greenhouse gases than ever before. The activities in this section include Carbon Meter, Earth Thermometer, Green Ideas, and Snakes and Ladders.
The Show and Science section is a live scientific theater performed by the guides of the Kids’ Science Garden. In this section, exciting and entertaining science experiments are demonstrated in theatrical form. Through play and observation, children learn scientific principles in an engaging and memorable way. In the 3D Cinema, children watch a thrilling animated film about space travel. Just put on the special 3D glasses, and the exciting journey into space begins! At the end of this scientific journey, a painting robot is ready to draw your portrait. Simply sit in front of it, and it will sketch a creative portrait of your face on paper. This drawing becomes a delightful souvenir of your visit to the Kids’ Science Garden.
