On Saturday, 7 March, from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m., Chemnitz Zoo, in collaboration with the City of Chemnitz Office for Health and Prevention, is hosting an eventful afternoon entitled "Ernährungswelten: Healthy nutrition for humans and animals" at the zoo school. The event is particularly aimed at families.
The cost of participation is only the regular admission price (adults 9.50 euros, concessions 5 euros).
To mark the nationwide Healthy Eating Day, which was initiated by the Association for Nutrition and Dietetics, the event will show how varied and everyday healthy eating can be - for people and animals alike.
The focus is on lovingly designed activity stands with lots of hands-on activities that combine knowledge, fun and exercise. Visitors can not only learn about healthy eating, but also actively experience it: Children design creative bread faces, pedal hard on the smoothie bike and enjoy their homemade smoothie. Health counsellor Wulf Knoblauch from the Office for Health and Prevention will give practical tips on healthy eating and the balanced sandwich box.
The world of animals also comes to life at interactive stands. There will be clear and child-friendly explanations of how different animal species feed, why their teeth are so different and what constitutes a species-appropriate diet. Exciting connections between human and animal nutrition are shown and attention is drawn to the consequences of incorrect feeding.
