Activities for Children and Families

At the Munich Show, children and teens can experience firsthand how nature and time interact. The trade show is not only an important business platform but has always been a place for sharing knowledge and fostering enthusiasm for our planet’s treasures. On the weekend—and for school groups, even during the trade visitor days—young explorers have the opportunity to embark on an exciting journey of discovery. Through numerous hands-on activities, they can get involved themselves and learn that science and natural history can be a lot of fun.

In captivating presentations, experts offer insights into the fascinating world of minerals, fossils, meteorites, and gemstones.

This year, children, teens, and families can, among other things, pan for gold, cut gemstones, participate in the geo-rally, crack geodes, carve soapstone, sift through shark teeth, sift through gemstones, or tackle the meteorite obstacle course.
