About Mito &Co

At Mito and Co, we believe that it’s never too early to ignite a passion for science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM). Our philosophy centers on the idea that hands-on, playful learning experiences are key to fostering curiosity and a love for discovery in children of all ages.

Each box is carefully assembled in Ontario, Canada, and filled with safe, high-quality materials designed to encourage exploration and critical thinking. By providing detailed instructions and video demonstrations, we ensure that children can dive into exciting experiments with confidence. 

Our mission is to nurture the natural curiosity in every child, laying a strong foundation for lifelong learning and innovation. Join us in exploring the wonders of science, one box at a time!

What’s the Science?

This is our favourite question to answer! Each experiment in our Science Boxes is designed to illustrate key scientific concepts in a fun and engaging way. From exploring the principles of chemistry with simple reactions to understanding basic physics through playful activities, our boxes make complex ideas accessible and exciting for young minds. We provide detailed explanations and background information with every experiment, helping children and parents alike understand the science behind the fun. Our goal is to inspire curiosity and a love for learning, making science both approachable and enjoyable for kids of all ages.
