Confectionery
Capers is an extremely novel presentation with appeal to
people of all ages and backgrounds.
Confectionery is the marketing theme, (retailing
various lines including the world's best jelly beans), but the core
of the presentation is the WHEEL and its hundreds of everyday applications.
The mysteries of basic applied mechanics are explored with over 100
interactive displays for people to enjoy and we can assure, you
will not be disappointed. |
Confectionery
Capers also celebrates the charm of the English language
per medium of over 800 CAPERGRAMS - small but attractive displays
which challenge the visitor to interpret words in unusual and thought-
provoking ways.
For schools they offer special educational programs specifically
tailored to suit both primary and secondary curriculums. For the general
public a typical presentation includes a formal introduction and
demonstration followed by a self-guided tour. |
