At Little House of Science, we nurture this curiosity and re-enforce STEM-related subjects in an exciting, unique, practical and fun way so that children can connect with science from a very early age.
Girls are particularly encouraged to start early because it can be more challenging to capture interest to pursue science in the later stages of their development.
Annually, over 5,000 children attend our science clubs during term times and during school holidays for STEM-related subjects at secure venues in London and also online in small interactive live Zoom classes.
Each term and holiday camps offer new topics with updated demonstrations and experiments.

About Expedition into the Frozen Frontiers, 7-10yrs
For Little Scientists: Our December Science camp is dedicated to Physics. Any elf, flying reindeer or sleigh mechanic hoping to work at Santa’s workshop must have a good grasp of how things move through space and time.Santa’s space engineer elves are hard at work these days! They have caught wind of our plans to build a city on Mars. How on Earth (or Mars, rather) is Santa going to deliver presents there?!
Even more urgently, Santa has heard that there is a lonely robot trundling across Mars’ vast deserts doing scientific research.
Its name is Curiosity and it hasn’t received a single Christmas present since first landing on Mars on the 6th of August 2012!
It has no company and no friends so each year it has to sing happy birthday to itself :’(
Let’s see if we can do some of our own research to help Santa and his elves get some presents out there to Curiosity in time for next Christmas.
Once we’ve cracked this problem Santa will have no problem sending presents to Mars for future humans (and robots) for years to come!
