You're right! And we don't expect you to give the exact same lesson to every age group. Each experiment comes with adaptation tips to tailor the lesson to your respective age and skill-levels. 

These tips include ways to ease the task for the youngest scientists (beginner level), or provide a challenge for the more experienced ones (advanced level). Some learners could, for example, begin to measure the length of flowers using their fingers, whereas the more experienced ones could use a ruler for the same task and mark down results.

We fully correlate to the majority of Science State Standards (US). And in addition to this, we also support lots of other areas of learning, such as literacy, math, movement and relationship skills. We have many alignment documents to show this, you can find those here. 

Therefore, we make the perfect supplemental curriculum: focused on developing early years children’s playful inquiry skills. This means that we enhance ANY EXISTING core curriculum or standards.

Kide Science provides a library of hands-on activities, giving teachers the flexibility to strengthen their pre-existing curriculum with added content. We provide that extra boost of engagement through stories and imaginative play - hooking learners in from the get-go.

Our secret is using stories and playful methods so that children feel that they're playing whilst they’re actually developing important science process skills. Also, we don’t take away from the time for literacy and math – those are integrated into our approach.

Kide Science is play-based. Each lesson is built around a story, generating lots of engagement from young children. This is something that many other STEM programs lack: they don’t always bring the learning to a child’s level.

Scientific research shows that children learn better when they're playing and using their natural sense of wonder. That's why every Kide Science lesson starts with a story from an imaginary world! Stories and illustrations engage children and present research problems in a concrete, fun way - which is much more effective than science lessons with no context.

Kide improves children’s curiosity and inquiry skills. It also builds their self-efficacy, as they begin to trust themselves as capable learners. These skills are hugely beneficial for advancing lifelong learning in all subjects,  not just science.
Kide benefits the learning of all children, despite their learning abilities and background. Even children who struggle with concentration are much more engaged in Kide lessons. 

Kide also improves children’s learning by empowering teachers. We equip them with the right tools and methods to teach STEM to young children; in an engaging, and most of all FUN way!

Kide is created with early years children in mind - and that goes for assessment too.

Especially at this young age, the most appropriate way to assess is to document and celebrate the learning process together - so we provide teachers with practical and child-friendly ways to do this. We don’t have tests or online reporting systems, but we do have toolkits to help teachers gather and visualize the needed information - to best support the children’s learning.

We truly are cross-curricular. Our main topics are Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math (AKA… STEAM!) and we often thread these into the same lesson. Besides these, our lessons also provide an opportunity to practice many other areas of learning, such as literacy, geography, health, and physical skills.
Yet, our ultimate goal is to give children the social-emotional, critical thinking and problem solving skills needed to navigate the world as they grow. 

You won't need one! We thoughtfully designed every lesson to use common kitchen supplies only. And hey - if you don't have something: we also often list alternatives. If you have these supplies, you can do 80 % of all of our activities.

You can try out the curriculum for free, after which we provide separate plans for classroom and school.

We are proud to say that we are screen-free for children. Instead, our platform provides teachers with hundreds of online and printable lesson plans, along with professional development opportunities.

No it really doesn't. In fact - our starter lessons can be done right away with very basic supplies you already have on hand (like pens). On average, it takes about 15-20 minutes to prepare. This includes familiarizing yourself with the lesson, collecting supplies, and printing out any materials. Then you’re ready to go!
