For kids from eight and up, there is now an exciting puzzle to solve at the Museum Koenig Bonn: Hippoline, the famous hippopotamus of the museum, has lost her friend Perti. But who is Perti?
Perti is an animal – of course, we are at the Museum Koenig Bonn. But what kind of animal is it, what family does it belong to? What does it like to eat? Even researchers here don’t simply recognize the animals. They use a scientific method called taxonomy. Taxonomists classify biological diversity by naming species and arranging them based on their relationships.
How can we find Perti? At the ticket counter, we have just the right tool for that: our new “Taxonomy Suitcase” designed for young researchers from eight years and up. Book it online beforehand, and it is available to the detectives for the entire day. With it’s contents, challenging tasks and puzzles can be solved at five stations in the exhibition.
With detective skills and a bit of luck, Perti can be reunited with his heavy-weight friend, Hippoline, in the museum’s foyer.
Borrowing the suitcase is free – only the museum entrance fee will be charged. This offer is aimed at families with children from eight and up and is suitable for a maximum of four detectives with one to two accompanying persons.
