Tuesday: How Children Play and Learn

Today we were at the Children's Museum in Cincinnati.

It varys from other museums. I think in this museum is the fun for the kids higher rated than in other museums. There are several sections like a water section or a ball section.

There are a lot of activities children can do. They can save a little town near a river when they remove the water wall and the water level decrease. In another part they can balls do fly with a fan.

One exhibit I want to descripe more is the "Dinner section". It is built like a little 1950s restaurant. There are glasses, dishes, a cashbox with a real calculator inside, a mircrowave, and little pieces of plasic food. On the wall, you can find a poster with the title "eat more, eat light" and some tips how kids can eat more healthy stuff. next to the poster is a soap dispenser to clean the hands.

I think the kids should learn what healthy food is, how stressful a job as waiter/waitress can be, and that the kids allways clean their hands.

The topic with healthy food is in my opinion actually not so present how it should be. There exists more unhealthy plasic food like hamburger, sandwiches, and french fries than vegetables and friuts. in this case they should invest more time to correct is.
