ArchaeoKidz School Holiday Programme 10th -25th August 2019

This school holiday, exhume your kid's skills in history and archaeology. ArchaeoKidZ is a brand new school-holiday programme at Kidzania from 10 - 25 August 2019 where children get to experience a series of themed role-play activities (with real equipments) in history and archaeology. If you think history and archaeology are boring, you are definitely missing out on your kid's opportunity to develop imaginative minds and critical thinking.

Being KidZania, where kids jump at joy to learn, ArchaeoKidz makes children absorb the subject in without them knowing! In line with KidZania’s philisophy to empower children to “Learn Life Today”, the programme is designed for the young community to learn how the world evolved with interactive workshops and hands-on activities, equipping them with vital skillsets for the future.

ArchaeoKidZ, a brand new school-holiday programme at Kidzania from 10 - 25 August 2019

Dato' Dr. Mokhtar Saidin explaining what fossils are

The main activities include a Fossil Excavation to introduce participants to basic principles and techniques of archaeological excavation with proper Archaeologist tools. Meanwhile, kids will learn about the type of dinosaurs and their profile in the Know Your Dino activity. Both activities by Canon are a form of sensory play that will help them to develop and improve their gross and fine motor skills.

Role playing with real tools

The ArcheoKidz programme will also feature three weekend workshops. The Dino Wrap workshop by Mission Foods and Emborg will allow participants to learn to make a dino- shaped wrap. The Glue Fossils workshop by UHU and Faber-Castell will teach the children about fossils, and the fascinating way they are created. Similarly, kids will also get to replicate stone-carved glyphs using craft supplies by UHU in the Mayan Art workshop.

Learning how fossils are formed

As part of the programme, KidZania Kuala Lumpur will also be conducting a BkidZanian special activity supported by F&N namely Spell the Dino, where the kids have to spell dinosaur names correctly to redeem prizes. Participants will also have the opportunity to make primitive-inspired bead bracelets, design their very own brand of dinosaur with handprint and paint, enjoy earth-coloured manicure service, and listen to a live program with in-house radio DJs who will discuss about archaeology and dinosaurs.

Learn about ancient humans

Parents and kids are in for some squeaky clean experiences at the Dino Soap workshop run by the Malaysian Palm Oil Council (MPOC) where they will learn how to make their own dinosaur-shaped soap using palm oil!

Launch officiated by Dato' Dr. Mokhtar Saidin and partner brands who made this programme possible

The launch was officiated by Guest of Honour, Professor Dato’ Dr Mokhtar Saidin, Director of the Centre for Global Archaeological Research (CGAR) in Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM), who also served as the Vice-President of the Ikatan Ahli Arkeologi Malaysia (IAAM). Speaking at the launch, Professor Dato’ Dr Mokhtar Saidin commented, “I applaud the effort made by KidZania Kuala Lumpur in taking the initiative to develop this programme, which I am certain will be an effective way to raise awareness among children and their parents of the importance of history and archaeology. Teaching children to understand the past will help them to understand change. It teaches them to think, which helps to develop their intellectual growth and skills such as cognitive skills. It is important when children are in the process of learning to be adults.”

Collaborating partners comprises of Malaysian Palm Oil Council (MPOC), F&N, Canon, Faber-Castell, Mission Foods, Emborg and UHU.
