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.
