Checker Tobi - The Milk Check

Primary School (9-11 years)

Focus Theme:
2018 Food Revolution

When we are born, our first meal is milk. This is not only the case for us humans, but for all mammals. Tobi explores what exactly is in milk and how does the milk get to the supermarket. South of Lake Chiemsee, dairy farmer Jakob makes sure that milk is replenished every day - or more accurately perhaps, his cows make sure. Equipped with a stool and a jug, Tobi tries his luck at milking. But Hilde, Bummerl and the other cows, are not at all in the mood to be milked by the inexperienced Checker. Together with laboratory assistant Julia, Tobi also finds out what milk is actually made out of in a dairy in southern Bavaria.
