In KidZ Academy and Activity Kits Launch

Global edutech and multimedia company, In KidZ, aims to make change through play by launching newly designed activity kits that expose children to new cultures, one box at a time. In KidZ has introduced boxes representing Australia, Black America, Dia de los Muertos, Guatemala, Italy and France. The learning kits are filled with interactive, family-friendly activities and games designed for children ages 3 and up and are available in small and large sizes.

"We are excited about the growth of the In KidZ brand and believe it signifies that parents, caregivers and educators are looking for fun ways to teach kids to embrace differences and learn about each other’s heritage,” says Dr. Zabina Bhasin, child psychiatrist, founder, In KidZ. “Now in our third year, we’re not only expanding to reach more children through the academy, but also our retail footprint to make it more convenient for families to play and learn together.”

In addition, the In KidZ Academy will launch on location at Booker T. Washington Child Development Centers in Phoenix, Ariz., serving more than 700 students this school year.

“We want to do all that we can to create the best possible educational experience for our children,” says Jevin Hodge, president, Booker T. Washington Child Development Centers. “With the changes that are occurring nationally within diversity and education, I believe that it is imperative to teach our brilliant youth how to be global citizens and how to be accepting of each other’s differences. This curriculum provides our next generation of doctors, lawyers, leaders, educators and artists a deeper understanding of the world and each other.”

In KidZ activity kits are available online and at national retailers, including select Kohl’s stores and Kohls.com for a limited time.
