ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers
Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.

I'm wondering if anyone out there in informal scienceland has seen or knows of successful exhibits on fitness and/or nutrition for kids? I'm interested in exhibits in science centers, children's museums, or wherever.

Do you have some exhibits on theses topics in your institution? What's worked well? What's been challenging? 
Have you done any visitor research or exhibit evaluation on these topics? We are just starting our research on this topic and are happy to share results when we have them.

Just for fun, here's my favorite food-related website. Sorry I didn't get this out in time for holiday baking.
