Participants will use colourful pipe cleaners to create their neuron models. They can then either take their creations home or attach them to a large, printed brain map to contribute to a growing neuronal network.

This hands-on activity is suitable for kids aged 2–3+ years. It aims to spark curiosity about neuroscience by introducing the basic structure and function of neurons in a fun and creative way.
