Introducing Play and Learn Science, a delightful suite of educational games and activities designed to ignite a passion for science in kids through engaging play! With this app, children can dive into a world of scientific discovery anytime, anywhere. From controlling the weather to experimenting with objects on a ramp, and selecting materials for an umbrella, kids will not only have fun but also develop essential science inquiry skills and grasp core science concepts.
Our science games for kids bridge the gap between learning and real-world exploration, drawing inspiration from familiar locations and experiences. This approach helps children see the science that surrounds them every day, turning everyday curiosity into meaningful learning opportunities.
With our family games, learning becomes a shared adventure. Hands-on activities paired with parent notes foster co-learning, encouraging families to extend the fun and learning at home. Early learning activities come with conversation starters and tips, making it easy for families to bring the lessons to life in their own communities.
