Fun Science for Kids
Through collaboration between kids and research scientists we have been able to send her to some really cool experiments. Just take a look around and learn about what science projects are going on around you.
Flat Rosie teaches us to be unafraid of the questions not yet answered. She shows us the hidden world of mad scientists, their evil labs and the nefarious applications they have in mind.
Get inspired by the research happening in the world around us, then visit our Kid’s Science Projects page for ideas of fun experiments and science projects for kids.
Download the Flat Rosie templates, find a science experiment you are interested in and make the connection! When your researcher replies, we will upload a new page to her lab book with her photos!
