All PodSquad actvity boxes are based on Howard Gardner’s Theory of Multiple Intelligence. Howard Gardner – renowned Professor of Education at Harvard University – stated that all children are born with 9 key Intelligences (or SMARTS) that go far beyond his or her academic ability. The PodSquad learning programme helps expose children to all these Intelligences at an early age, so parents can see what Intelligence or Smart their child has the most aptitude for – and then help the child build on it. Each of our boxes will cover 3 or more Intelligences, and by the end of our learning programme, your child will have explored all 9.
