Da Vinci Learning, an institution that aims to provide education across the globe, has kicked off a three-month mathematics tour. Da Vinci Learning's "Fantastic Truck" will visit 22 Turkish provinces inviting thousands of children to become a part of their "Traveling Cinema" and "Education Workshops." The entertaining and educational documentaries of Da Vinci Learning TV, which focuses on science, technology, culture and arts, will be screened for the children in each location. Through the workshops and documentary screenings, the children will have a chance to unlock new talents and improve their scientific and critical thinking capabilities.Due to the popularity of last year's "Fantastic Truck," this year the Fantastic Mathematics Exhibition is traveling to Turkey with two trucks in order to reach more children. The trucks set off on Feb. 20 and their tour will finish on May 20. The first stops for the trucks are the Sultanbeyli and Sultangazi municipalities of Istanbul. The first exhibitions, which will end today, are being hosted by the Municipality Wedding Hall of Sultangazi Municipality and at the Prof. Necmettin Erbakan Cultural Center in Sultanbeyli Municipality.Following the simultaneous exhibitions, the first truck will then pay a visit to Istanbul's Esenler Municipality between Feb. 27 and March 3, later moving on to the provinces of Kastamonu, Sinop, Amasya, Samsun, Ordu, Trabzon, Kayseri, Nevşehir, Mersin and Konya.

The Fantastic Mathematics Exhibition helps children to learn basic mathematical subjects in an entertaining and interactive way. Via the Fantastic Trucks, thousands of children around Turkey will have a chance to discover new dimensions of mathematics. The children will also watch Da Vinci Learning TV's most popular series "Artzooka," and explore the art of mathematics all while having a great time with their peers.
