Dear Mom or Dad,
I am still growing, and I don’t know what I am going to be yet. So, I need your help figuring it out!
I really want YOU to try out Galxyz and get it for me. It’s an adventure that makes science fun and interesting. Just try it out and you’ll see. They even give away a couple of episodes for free before you buy more of them (which are cheaper than a coffee!).
I’m pretty sure that this will get me really interested in science!
I hear that scientific thinking is important for everybody, not just scientists. Whether I become a chemist, a lawyer or an artist, logical thinking will help me for life. Galxyz will not only make my science grades better, but it will give me a whole new way to look at the world. I will learn to think critically, and work independently... in the game AND in real life!
I’ll be challenged to solve many interesting problems, like:
What happens to a magnet when you break it?
Is fire a chemical reaction?
And, why does the moon look different at different times of the month?
I also get to play exciting mini-games, that help me understand the material intuitively, going far beyond the concept. I really really want to play Galxyz!
Please make learning an adventure for me!
Love,
Your favorite kid!

From Galxyz:
Dear Parents,
We’ve designed Galxyz to ignite fascination for science and unlock the true potential in every child. We started designing Galxyz for our kids and thought to share it with the other parents.
Science helps kids approach things differently and think logically -- a gift that will remain with them for life! They will talk about things around them with more confidence and insight.
With Galxyz, parents don’t even have to worry about what to teach next, we sequence all content in the right order. We’ve based the content on the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) released by the US Govt, as well as a deep partnership with the New York Academy of Sciences.
In the second level kids start learning about Science Practices, then go on to Properties of Matter; Chemical Reactions; Interdependencies in Ecosystems, and beyond. There will be another 100+ levels, released one by one. You can create up to three different users, so everyone gets to play at their own pace!
Most importantly, set your kids on a path where they can unlock their true potential. The world needs the next generation to do more amazing things! Try us out!
The Curriculum covers Physical Sciences, Life Science and Earth & Space Sciences. Your child will cover Matter, Mass, Chemical Change, Physical Change, Circuits, Decomposers, Ecosystems, Electrical Energy, Elements, Energy Transfer, Organisms, Photosynthesis, Population, Solar Cookers, Vernal Pools, Intensity, Gravity, Push, Pull, Force, Motion, Magnetic Fields, Electric Charges, Static Electricity, Van de Graff generator, Current, Static, Condensation, Evaporation, Solid, Liquid, Gas, Solar Energy, Sound Energy, Mechanical Energy, Heat Energy, Light Energy, Generators, Steam Engines, Solutions, Caramelization, Oxygen, Carbon Dioxide, Conservation of Mass, Invasive Species, Producers, Consumers, Organisms, Community, Herbivores, Carnivores, Omnivores, Nutrients, Population Control, Sugar, Marine Ecosystems, Acceleration, Direction, Distance, Friction Speed, Energy Transfer, Charge, Contact Forces, Diameter, Magnetar, Orbit, Trajectory, Constellations, Crescent Moon, Ellipses, Stars, Mechanical Waves, Sound Waves, Solenoid, Gravitation Field, Weight, Universe, Rotation, Revolution, Eclipse, and many other really cool things,
Theyll talk to Science Heroes like Mendeleev, Lavoisier, Saussure, Tesla, Newton, Galileo, Faraday, Dalton, Goodall, Abbott, Khwarizmi, Cannon, Kepler and many other great scientist!
Also, we apologize for any crashes, bugs or content issues. We are working hard to improve performance.
Best,
Osman and the Galxyz Team!
