Free Family Day Out Idea : Colgate Keeping Britain Smiling Exhibition

This sounds perfect for a fun, family-friendly and above all free day out, especially with the atrocious weather we've been having lately. Colgate’s Keeping Britain Smiling Exhibition will give kids of all ages the opportunity to step into the fascinating world of their mouths. The exhibition will be at The O2 until 28th May, and will then tour the UK.(I do have a complaint about the following press release though - I now have Dame Vera Lynn's We'll Meet Again on the brain. "Keep smiling through, just like you always doooo ..." !!

EXPLORE THE INCREDIBLE WORLD OF YOUR MOUTH AT THE
FREE KEEPING BRITAIN SMILING EXHIBITION
 
For Great Family Fun be a Dentist for a Day with Colgate
 
 
From Monday 7th May, young people throughout the country are invited to step into the unique world of their mouths and learn firsthand what it takes to maintain a bright smile. This free exhibition features a number of exhibits designed to engage and entertain, whilst providing mind-boggling facts and stats all about the fascinating world of your mouth.
 
The exhibits are designed to inspire and delight kids on everything from the anatomy of the mouth and how it works - its role in speaking, eating and drinking for example, to the surprising history of dental hygiene and dentistry to how to care for your teeth and gums. Did you know that Egyptians in 2000BC used toothpaste made of vinegar and powdered pumice stone or that goats’ feet were one of the many things that Ancient Greeks used to keep gums healthy? Visitors can figure out “Clever Mouth Myth Busters,” and find out the “Ingenious Innovations” that are currently being researched for exciting advances in the future of dentistry.
 
With the current rise of tooth decay amongst children in the UK, Colgate hopes the exhibition will inspire young people to start taking better care of their teeth, developing habits that they will take with them and maintain throughout adult life.
 
The exhibition offers a fun and educational day out for school classes and the whole family. Launching at The O2 on London, the Colgate Keeping Britain Smiling Exhibition will travel to six locations throughout the UK including the Glasgow Science Museum and Sheffield’s Magna Science Adventure Centre.
 
The Keeping Britain Smiling Exhibition will tour the following locations:
 
§  7th May – 28th May: The O2, London
§  2nd June – 5th June: Hyde Park, London
§  30th June – 8th July: WestQuay, Southampton
