Board Game Learning
Hybrid Games provides outstanding workshops to bridge the gap between play and learning STEM. We have worked in schools and festivals all over the UK and continue to launch games about unusual subjects, including viruses, antibiotics, chemical reactions, and the menstrual cycle. Our workshops help build scientific knowledge, confidence and enthusiasm for learning science and developing communication skills between children. We work hard to provide games suitable for those with Neurodiverse brains, as accessibility is at the heart of our values.
