Thames & Kosmos was founded in 2001 by a science museum director and her son, who saw the great need and demand for better science education materials — resources for parents and their children that are more engaging, more effective, more relevant, and more fun. With more than 250 unique science kits ranging from single experiments to cutting-edge kits - T&K expanded upon its goal to inspire comprehensive, hands-on learning experiences by introducing a curated selection of German-style board games from world-renowned authors and designers.
