Do you know if your kids’ hands are clean? Yes, no, or maybe? Find out at the Boecker Lab in KidZania Doha until the 6th of November and let your kids learn how to stay safe, now that they are fully back-to-school.

What will they learn? Kids will rediscover the facts about germs and how to fight them. They will perform cool experiments on disappearing germs, glowing hands, and learn the importance of proper handwashing. Fun learning never stops with Boecker and KidZania Doha!
