Hunger Signals

Catalog #: 028-07-0007
Parent Exhibit: Everybody Eats
Description: This exhibit focuses on listening to the signals our bodies give us when we are deciding whether to eat and how much to eat. In this computer game, the visitor chooses a character and guides the character through a week of eating snacks and meals. Visitors are presented with decision points. Should the character eat or forgo eating for an alternate activity? Hunger meters and feeling meters help the visitor gauge the character’s emotions and hunger levels and give them information they need to make a decision. The visitor will learn that there are many reasons we eat and that people are not always motivated to eat by hunger. The exhibit also sends the message that eating only when we are hungry is a healthy habit.
