OKIDO Magazine is an independent arts and science magazine for young children and their families. Created by parents in 2007, OKIDO is designed to fire up imagination and understanding of art and science. Founders, scientist Dr Sophie Dauvois (PhD BSc PG Dip.) and artist Rachel Ortas are passionate about engaging young children in the scientific world around them through play, art and fun.

Each of our workshops are centred around a different topic where we learn about it through discussion, reinforce it with a fun science experiment and make something fun to take home. All of our content is created by scientists and artists and reinforced by educators.

Here's your chance to learn all about colours, conduct a science experiment, and make something fun to take home. We will also be giving away a backissue of OKIDO magazine!

This workshop is most suitable for children aged 3-7. They are a great learning environment to satisfy curious little minds through collaboration, curiosity, exploration, creativity, discovery, and critical thinking.

This activity will be run by Karen and Alice from Let's Make Art.
