Professor DOUBT & the reSEARCHtour

Explore GUM with one of our Family Games. PROFESSOR DOUBT is for doubters from 4 years and the reSEARCHtour for young people from 7 years. Less young doubters can play along, of course!

GUM has two treasure hunts for families! Professor DOUBT is for children aged four and over. They’ll need help from someone who can already read and will look at the objects with them. The leaflet is full of fun tasks that involve looking, thinking or drawing. Match skulls to the right animal, study a model of a horse and find a hidden Pokémon!

There’s also the reSEARCHtour for children aged nine and over. This one sometimes requires a bit more thought, but together you’ll definitely work your way through it. Are everyone’s arms the same length in proportion? In what ways can robots still help humans? Can you find the Portuguese warship, and can you tell which horse is the youngest by looking at its teeth?

Mission accomplished? A nice surprise awaits you at the reception.
