At BASF's Ludwigshafen headquarters, kids and young adults in grades 1-13 can learn about chemistry in the Kids' Labs. Different programs exist for different levels of knowledge. In the two 'Hands-on Lab H(2)O & Co.' Kids' Labs, students from grades 1-6 explore the secrets of chemistry. BASF Kids' Labs have now been set up in over 30 countries. In Switzerland alone, almost 2,000 students have taken part in the 'Water Loves Chemistry' Kids' Lab since it was started in 2011. In Alsace, 600 students have participated to date. In the Teens' Lab 'Xplore Middle School', middle school students explore five different programs with the themes 'substance labyrinth', 'nutrition', 'coffee, caffeine & co.', 'cosmetics' and 'energy'. Biotechnological methods are the focus of the Teens' Lab 'Xplore Biotech' for students taking basic and advanced biology courses. In the 'Xplore High School' Teens' Lab, chemistry teachers present their own experimental lab instruction for students in basic and advanced chemistry courses. The Virtual Lab has been expanding the offerings of the BASF Kids' Labs since 2011. The online lab was developed by the company for the International Year Of Chemistry and gives kids and young adults the opportunity to do interactive experiments outside of the lab.
在巴斯夫位于路德维希港的总部，1至13年级的儿童和青少年可以在儿童实验室了解化学知识。针对不同知识水平设有不同的项目。在两个“Hands-on Lab H(2)O & Co.”儿童实验室里，1至6年级的学生探索化学的奥秘。巴斯夫儿童实验室现已在30多个国家设立。仅在瑞士，自2011年启动“水爱化学”儿童实验室以来，就有近2000名学生参与其中。在阿尔萨斯，到目前为止已有600名学生参与。在青少年实验室“Xplore中学”，中学生探索五个不同主题的项目，分别是“物质迷宫”“营养”“咖啡、咖啡因及其他”“化妆品”和“能源”。生物技术方法是面向基础生物学和高级生物学课程学生的“Xplore生物技术”青少年实验室的重点。在“Xplore高中”青少年实验室，化学教师为基础化学和高级化学课程的学生提供他们自己的实验指导。自2011年以来，虚拟实验室一直在扩充巴斯夫儿童实验室的课程内容。这个在线实验室是该公司为国际化学年开发的，让儿童和青少年有机会在实验室之外进行互动实验。
