In a world in which children as young as two first take their seat behind a desk in a classroom, we Finns learn by play.
Our stories, both as entrepreneurs and humans in this modern world, begin and end with the simple power of play.
Play, the most natural way for a child to explore the world around them.
Play, the research-backed, anti-competitive way of looking at early education.
In 2013, we – the three founders – embarked on a five-year research journey that would irrevocably change how we look at early science education.
In collaboration with the University of Helsinki, we hosted over a 1000 young children’s science clubs, and turned our learnings into an engaging STEAM education model that meets children in an environment most natural to them: the imagination.
At Kide Science, we know that children are active learners by nature. As a teacher or a parent, you’re bound to know it, too.
Because children have a strong tendency to explore and experiment, our pedagogy shifts science learning into imaginative.
