The Natural History Museum at Ottoneum Kassel invites children aged 7 and older to an exciting vacation game event on July 21, 2026. Under the motto "Mammoths in Kassel?" the young participants will dive deep into the world of the Ice Age and experience firsthand what life was like for earlier humans in the region.

The day begins at 10:00 am and offers a variety of activities designed to promote historical understanding in a playful way. This includes interactive stations on the animal and plant life of the Ice Age as well as creative crafting sessions where children can create their own 'mammoth' models. Pre-registration is required to ensure that each participant receives the best possible care.
