The Nat Geo Kids Weird But True! Exhibition Is Heading To Sci-Bono

Joburg Admin / May 16, 2019

Just In Time For The School Holidays!

The Nat Geo Kids Weird But True! exhibition, brought to you by National Geographic, in partnership with Sci-Bono, will be heading to the Sci-Bono Discovery Science Centre in Johannesburg this June. For the first time in Africa, this engaging and interactive exhibition will give young minds the opportunity to explore our amazing and very weird world. Based on the wildly successful Nat Geo Kids magazine feature and a best-selling series of books, the facts and interactive features cover a broad range of topics including science, food, pop culture and more. Did you know that girls have more taste buds than boys do? Or that slugs have 3,000 teeth and four noses? And who knew that gorillas burp when they’re happy? Kids, and adults alike, are invited to celebrate everything Weird But True! through wild, entertaining, brain-bending, visually stunning photos, graphics, games and installations. This initiative aims to inspire both young and old to explore our world in an engaging and fun-filled way. Sci-Bono is the largest science centre in South Africa and hosts a variety of interactive exhibitions and learning programmes, offering visitors the chance to engage with science and technology in a hands-on and experiential way.

When Is It?

Just in time for the winter school holidays, the Nat Geo Kids Weird but True! exhibition will be open from Sunday, 16 June 2019 until Tuesday, 14 January 2020. Enquiries for group bookings or school tours can be made through the Sci-Bono information desk at [email protected].
