A Science Enrichment Program for Children in Grades K-5
What Matters For Kids™ is an enrichment company founded on the belief that children are inherently curious and learn by doing. Therefore, lessons are unique and hands-on, taught using a multi-sensory philosophy. Students get up and jump around, stick their hands in goop, smell the stink of a chemical reaction, hear the thud of gravity and even see color changes in some experiments!
