COSA x Bay Area Science Festival 2026

Join UCSF Community Outreach Student Alliance's Project Pediatrics and Science Squad for a fun, hands-on health information booth for kids and families!

Children can become Little Health Heroes by completing interactive activities that explore nutrition, medication safety, and healthy habits. Build a balanced plate and discover the roles of fruits, vegetables, proteins, grains, and dairy; take the “Medicine or Candy?” challenge to learn why medications should only be taken with a trusted adult; and explore other activities designed to make learning about health fun and memorable.

Parents and caregivers can also learn about safe over-the-counter medication use, avoiding duplicate ingredients in combination products, childhood vaccinations, fever care, and other practical ways to keep their families healthy and safe.

Our goal is to make health education interactive, approachable, and fun, giving children the opportunity to learn through play while providing caregivers with practical information they can use at home.
