What is an Odyssey box?

Our Odyssey range is designed to fit the physical and learning abilities of kids aged 6-8. Every box contains high-quality craft materials and creative projects to be completed by children while learning about different STEAM topics in a hands-on manner. These boxes aim to improve children’s creative confidence and logical processing skills.

What topics of exploration are included in the Odyssey subscription?

We explore new STEAM topics with every box and are developed to be full of hands-on activities for kids. For the Odyssey range we aim to help kids discover more about topics they will start to encounter at school such as light, sound, forces, simple engineering concepts, scientific experiments and natural science.

What is the educational philosophy of Tinkerer?

Tinkerer believes in “learning through play”, we believe that it is very important to keep children engaged and interested throughout their journey to learn. We encourage children to explore different topics in Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics by developing a range of boxes that guide them through these topics in an engaging manner using hands-on assembly and experimentation, games and quizzes that encourage logical problem solving. Each box is developed with the physical abilities and age appropriate curriculum topics in mind, together with displayable results to enhance children’s sense of achievement and improve their confidence and wiliness for further exploration.
