**About KideScience: SCIENCE EXPERIMENT PROGRAM FOR 3-8 YR OLDS**

Kide Science platform offers the most engaging model to break the mould and give teachers the confidence to teach science & inquiry-based lessons with play and stories to children aged 3-8.

Kide Science is here to help children become active producers of knowledge and meaning, helping them grow into problem solvers and creative thinkers for their future social needs.

For young children, the natural way to produce meaning is through play - not sit down, be quiet, and absorb pre-ground knowledge.
