Grow Play Education
STEAM Educational Games
Grow Play Education is for students K-3 to learn about STEAM and sustainable development through digital educational games.
We help teachers make science fun and understandable. Along with our educational games, teachers receive a comprehensive guide with lesson plans and extra content. Current apps cover topics including: organic gardening, biodiversity, recycling, upcycling, and pollution. We have recently released our first Grow Play School Kits with educator’s guides and lesson plans:
Grow Garden School Kit
The Grow Garden School Kit includes lesson plans, teaching materials and additional activities to complement the educational game Grow Garden.
Grow Recycling School Kit
The Grow Recycling School Kit includes lesson plans, teaching materials and additional activities to complement the educational game Grow Recycling.
Grow Planet
We are currently developing an immersive learning platform, Grow Planet, in partnership with the EdTech accelerator xEdu and schools in Finland and Sweden.
If you’d like to be part of our co-creation community to provide insight and feedback on the creation of Grow Planet, please register here. We would love to have you!
