Exploring with all senses: Tasting and Smelling at the Natural History Museum
What happens when children turn their senses into little researchers? During the family experience Experiments (5–7 Years): Tasting and Smelling, children explore scientific connections at the State Museum of Natural History Karlsruhe in a playful and age-appropriate manner.
Child-friendly learning fun with taste and curiosity
The 45-minute event invites children aged five to seven to actively explore various topics from the natural sciences. The focus is on conscious perception, curious observation, and joint discovery. Thus, a short museum session becomes a sensory learning experience filled with children's laughter, amazement, and many little Aha moments.
Researching, observing, and discovering for oneself
The experimenting strengthens important skills in child development: children compare impressions, formulate hypotheses, and experience that scientific questions begin in everyday life. The offerings are designed to be child-friendly and combine learning fun with practical experience. Admission and materials are already included in the costs.
A family experience with educational value
The experiment courses specifically target children aged five to seven years. With a manageable duration of 45 minutes, the format remains focused and age-appropriate. Those who attend eight courses receive a diploma. The program is supported by the Youth Foundation of the Sparkasse Karlsruhe.

The meeting point is located at the ticket office of the State Museum of Natural History Karlsruhe.
