Bring Your Kids To Explore Science And Space with KidZania Kuala Lumpur This School Holidays

KidZania Kuala Lumpur officially launched its Science & Space school holiday programme! It features engaging and educational activities that are perfect for your budding scientist.

The launch was officiated by Professor Emeritus Datuk Dr. Mazlan Othman, the first Malaysian astrophysicist and former Director General of the Malaysian National Space Agency (Angkasa).

“Truly, science helps children develop vital life skills such as problem solving and logical thinking. Science is totally relevant to our everyday life. What is more inspiring is that in a child’s role as a scientist, they can aspire to solve world challenges such as climate change. This is important for the younger
generation.” – Dr. Mazlan
