Mission: Kiddie Science is a Brooklyn-based 501(c)(3) non-profit organization aimed at presenting science to young children. We incorporate experiments and child-led exploration to empower children to think scientifically and apply critical thinking skills to their world. Targeting young scientists age 2 and up, our programs aim to foster a lifetime love of science.
Results: To date, we have worked with 785 young scientists and counting. Many of the children we work with represent low income, underserved populations that have limited access to science education. Many of the young scientists we work with do not receive any additional science enrichment. What began as one workshop and a partnership with one school, has flourished into five established workshops and partnerships with six schools and childcare centers.
Target demographics: empower children to think scientifically.
Direct beneficiaries per year: over 385 young children explore the wonders of science
Geographic areas served: Brooklyn, NY
Programs: engaging, inquiry-based, hands on science workshops that incorporate experiments and child-led exploration. Targeting young scientists age 2 and up, our programs aim to foster a lifetime love of science.
