Research in recent years has highlighted associations between the gut microbiome and everyday wellbeing — including mood response, stress regulation, focus and sleep. Studies also indicate that a significant proportion of the body’s serotonin is produced in the gut. To help young parents and children build early foundational awareness of how the body functions, **G–NiiB GenieBiome** and **Ocean Park** launched the **"Little Scientist: Explore the Gut Microbiome"** family education programme in 2024. The programme’s finale — the Colouring and Poster Design Competition Award Presentation — was held on **8 March**, and the organisers today announce the outcomes of the two–year collaboration. Centred on public education, the initiative combined interactive in–park learning, a children’s picture book and ambassador–led guidance to introduce fundamental microbiome concepts to families, and to encourage parents to integrate these ideas into daily life. Since launch, the programme has reached **over 200,000** park visitors. The finale competition received **close to 100 entries** from kindergarten, Primary 1–3 and Primary 4–6 students, expressing their understanding of the relationship between gut health and everyday habits through colour, slogans and original design. **Integrating experiential learning, reading and creativity to introduce gut microbiome concepts** The education programme was delivered across three components: **(1) Interactive in–park learning** The "Mark’s Mine" space was redesigned as the **G–NiiB Little Scientist Corner**, allowing children to explore microbiome concepts through hands–on and scenario–based activities that illustrate the gut as a balanced ecosystem. **(2) Picture book learning at home** The children’s picture book **"The Adventures of Whiskers: Secrets of the Human Body — The Gut Microbiome Village"** introduces the roles of different microorganisms through storytelling, explaining in simple language how gut balance relates to emotions, digestion, skin health, focus and sleep. **(3) Guided learning and family extension** Ambassadors provided on–site explanations and learning materials, helping parents translate the concepts into family conversations and everyday practice. Through these approaches, the programme aimed to help children build early foundational awareness of how different bodily systems function, and to encourage long–term interest in health and wellbeing. **Competition showcases age–specific understanding of gut health** The **G–NiiB Little Scientist: Explore the Gut Microbiome Colouring & Poster Design Competition** consisted of three categories – Kindergarten (Colouring + Slogan), Primary 1–3 (Poster Design), and Primary 4–6 (Poster Design). First Place, Second Place and Third Place Awards were presented in each category. Judges shared that younger participants tended to express basic health messages through simple slogans and colour use, while lower primary students often used exploration or adventure themes to represent the microbiome world. Senior primary students demonstrated a more integrated expression of how diet, routines and bodily states interrelate. **Tim Chan, Corporate PR and Marketing Lead, G–NiiB GenieBiome**, said: "We hope to help young parents and children start learning about the gut microbiome from an early stage, as it has associations with everyday wellbeing — including mood, focus and sleep. The aim of the programme is to make complex science understandable and usable for families. Seeing students express their understanding of health through creative work shows that the educational content has successfully reached their daily lives." He added, "Ocean Park has long promoted nature and life education. This collaboration extends the learning journey to the body’s inner ecosystem, enabling families to build fundamental health awareness through play, reading and creativity." **A participating parent** shared that the programme also supported learning at home: "After joining the programme, my child began proactively connecting food choices and routines with how the body feels. Abstract concepts became more concrete through the picture book and activities, giving our family more opportunities to talk about health." **Community education significance** Tim Chan added that introducing microbiome concepts through child–friendly, age–appropriate methods can help families build early awareness of physical and emotional wellbeing. The two–year collaboration demonstrates how science education can be translated into accessible public learning and contribute to long–term community health literacy.
