Start det day with discovering the secrets of the human body and learn about important cycles in nature. Play with water and explore the bottom of the ocean. Challenge yourself and feel physics when you cycle 360 degrees, upside down. Create something new in a creativity workshop, and end the day with a science show, full of thrilling experiments. At VilVite you can explore the fun in science!
Loop – a new experience connecting cycles in nature, and green innovation
Enter a fascinating world and explore life above and below ground. How does trees and fungi communicate? What creeps and crawls down in the soil, usually hidden from us? Our new exhibition Loop teaches about the importance of cycles in nature – and if you look closely, you might encounter some living insects and bugs.
