GUIDED VISIT FOR CHILDREN
Developed as a real adventure book, this tour guide for children [6 to 12] includes about a dozen puzzles to solve.
The answers to these puzzles are given in the panorama [upper sphere] and in the permanent exhibition [bottom sphere].
In addition to the questions, the completely free guide includes a series of information adapted to youngsters to enable them better to understand the history of the Atomium and the circumstances surrounding its creation.
