What is the MEL Science purpose?
We are breaking the stereotype that science is boring, difficult, and only for certain types of people. We strive to make serious science accessible, interesting, and cool. Science is about exploration, experiments, discovery, and asking questions – all of which comes naturally to all children. We believe that every child is a scientist.
We help nurture children’s natural interest in science by giving them:
fun hands-on experiments to engage
serious, detailed explanations to learn
VR and AR technologies to dive deeper
