The Children Nutrition Park does exactly what its odd name promises: a miniature train (the 'Nutri Express') carries children between themed stations with names like Fruitpuri and Payonagari, where interactive galleries, mirror mazes, projections and games sell one consistent message, eat real food. It is unapologetically for kids; adults ride along as chaperones and generally leave charmed anyway.
Sessions run in train-batches, so on busy days you queue for a departure rather than wandering in. Budget about ninety minutes end to end. With under-12s in the group it earns its slot on a two-day campus plan; without them, spend the ticket elsewhere.

Honestly, no, the content pitches at ages 4–12. With kids in tow it's one of the campus's best 90 minutes.
