Who was the philosopher Democritus? Why is an important research centre, such as the National Centre for Scientific Research “Demokritos”, named after him? Is he actually one of the greatest philosophers in world history, as well as the first scientist? What did he “see” that we will see through a microscope?
By playing a floor quiz game and viewing various samples under a microscope, children will get to know important milestones in the life and story of the great philosopher and researcher. During this educational activity, kids will be able to discover important aspects of his life and work, while getting acquainted with basic notions used in the exact sciences.
