ABOUT
We create engaging learning experiences to promote exploration of the arts, music, geography and science.
Birdhouse Kids Media is an independent cross-platform publishing house located in Vancouver, on the beautiful west coast of Canada. We love to create special opportunities for parents and educators; New ways to introduce children to the things in life that will make them accomplished, healthy and happy. Whether it is making them excited about their first violin lesson, holding a camera for their first great snapshot, or understanding the importance of consent. At Birdhouse we open a door to early-childhood discovery with an uncompromising and trusted series of books, apps and other empowering activities.
How we do it?
As storytellers, we understand that technology has become a highly dominant part of our children's lives in play and education. That is why we are dedicated to creating fun and engaging e-learning tools that keep a balance between the two. Using narrative-driven activities and lovable characters, we make the discovery of non-fiction content fun and engaging, and plant the seeds for life-long exploration.
Every game, lesson, book or show that we create at Birdhouse is a collaboration of artists and educators who believe in high production values and excellent user experience as a base for engaging learning. We hope you and your kids or students can share time learning and playing with our products and welcome any comments or suggestions you may have.
