Let’s hear from Elsa, an early years teacher from Helsinki Finland. Elsa has been using Kide Science with her class of 21 children, with many children needing extra support for their developmental barriers. Find out how Kide Science’s imaginary characters increased children’s focus and formed emotional connections.

In 2022, Kide Science was proud to collaborate with Dubai Cares: an organization significantly contributing to the UN’s Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 4. This goal aims to ensure inclusive and equitable quality education for children, and also promotes lifelong learningFind out how we encouraged children to be active agents for lifelong learning in this 6 month project.

In 2021, Brazil English Language School chain Red Balloon partnered with Kide Science. They recognised how vocab-rich our stories are, and how our playful inquiry process is underscored by developing children’s language skills. In Kide Science’s pedagogy, we hold that language is a dominant cultural tool to mediate meanings.

Meet Alan, the founder of InNordic, a Hong Kong Education start-up. InNordics have been using Kide Science since 2020 as part of a franchisee partnership, offering Kide’s pedagogy as part of enrichment clubs. Alan discusses many ways in which Kide has impacted children, including a heightened awareness of the natural world, deeper levels of curiosity, and a greater love of learning. He also shares how Kide has transformed his teaching to include a flat hierarchy with the children: building a relaxed and fun learning environment for all.

In 2023, Kide Science made a significant impact in early childhood education by introducing its play-based learning approach to nearly 100 World Bank representatives in Washington D.C. The keynote presentation, titled "The Power of Imagination - When Learning Feels Like Playing," emphasized the importance of play for young children and raised worldwide concern about the decreasing amount of play among children, which can negatively impact their mental well-being.

We all know that early science education relies on hands-on learning. But what about during the COVID-19 pandemic? In chapter 17 of this publication, our founder Jenni explores how playful inquiry positively impacts children’s learning, even remotely. She details how Kide Science translated its early science education model to answer distance learning needs and, crucially, how children’s engagement could still be supported.
