PlayfulScience

Playful Science is a mobile app that aims to bring family members together to think, talk, and do science anytime, anywhere. Professor Shelley Goldman envisioned Playful Science to be a mobile learning experience for families to engage in playful science exploration in everyday settings. She and her research team have designed a handful of activities that encourage families to do and learn science practice together, inspire open-ended exploration and conversations, and aid parents in eliciting and extending children’s curiosities.
