Get your mission to grow up healthy, safe and strong at Team Turtle Training Camp.

Team Turtle - Diera, Kino, Claudi, Ferox and Dr. T -- are your guides in a captivating and fun exhibit that combines hands-on learning and interactive video games. During your training, discover ways to make smart and healthy choices in four key areas: nutrition and fitness, safety, substance abuse prevention, and conflict resolution.

  • Check in with Dr. T for your training camp mission. He'll help you set a goal and find ways to make it happen so you'll feel healthier inside and out.
  • Fuel up with healthy foods with a visit to Diera's Diner - an interactive video game that lets you select the right combination of go, grow and slow foods for a perfectly balanced meal. Plant, grow and harvest fruits and vegetables in Diera's Garden. Use a scale to balance the amount of activity your body needs to burn the calories you consume. Feed the Healthy Body Bot to understand the benefits and effects foods have on your bones and digestive and circulatory systems.
  • Get your gear on and go with Kino. Earn a Safety Inspector badge as you test your home, street and water safety knowledge. Jump in, buckle up and play it safe with a video game that challenges you to make wise and safe choices.
  • Claudi knows that each of us can choose not to use substances that are harmful to our bodies. Sing a familiar tune in the Smoke Gives Me the Blues Karaoke Booth. Let the Drug Dummy show you how substances effect your body and organs. Plus, Claudi will help you find the words to say just say NO.
  • Start your training with Ferox and discover ways to overcome anger and work it out with words. Create a Team Turtle Video. You choose the outcome of the video and discover the consequences of your choice as you explore a variety of feelings and actions. Are you mad, sad or glad? Step inside Cool it Down and uncover the true color of your emotions. Select facial expressions that tell A Storybook of Feelings.
