Your child discovers. You complete the conversation.
Arludo is the free STEM platform that gives your child something to talk about at dinner. And gives you the questions to ask.
Everything is free. Genuinely.
Arludo is free for every student. Not a limited free version. Not a free trial. Every game, every lesson, every challenge, every scientist video, every career feature is free for your child. Always. Because every child deserves the right to learn. The Science Portal is an optional subscription that lets you guide and track your child’s learning. It is entirely optional. Your child can discover freely without it.
This is how Arludo works at home
Your child plays
They experiment, discover, and explore through games that require real scientific thinking. No passive watching. No instruction to sit through. Active discovery.
Something clicks
They form a hypothesis without knowing that’s what it’s called. They interpret data without knowing that’s what they’re doing. The understanding comes from the play itself.
You have the conversation
“What happened in your game today? Why do you think that worked?” That’s all it takes. Your interest and your questions are what cement what they’ve discovered into real understanding. This is the discovery-discussion loop.
What your child will actually experience.
Science adventures across different topics from animal adaptations to the engineering design process. Kids explore at their own pace.
What changes after a few sessions
They start asking "why" unprompted
After playing games built around real experiments, children begin applying the same curiosity to the world around them. Expect questions about why things work the way they do.
They form a guess before they test
Hypothesis thinking is baked into every Arludo game. You can't progress without it. Kids start doing this naturally in everyday situations, often without realising it.
They become more confident learners
As they play and discover, they learn that making mistakes is part of learning. This changes how they view learning and how they learn.
They want to share what they discovered
The discovery-discussion loop is where the learning sticks. When a child comes home wanting to explain what happened in a game, that conversation is the science lesson. Ask them: "why do you think that happened?"
They connect the game to the real world
Arludo games are built on published scientific research, so the patterns kids notice in the game exist in nature. Don't be surprised when they spot it outside.
They stick with problems instead of quitting
Every game requires iteration: trying, failing, adjusting. Children who play regularly develop a tolerance for being wrong that transfers into how they approach schoolwork.
Want to guide what your child learns?
The Science Portal lets you take the wheel. Set a topic. Follow your child’s progress. See where their curiosity is taking them. With the Science Portal for families, you can: • Choose topics that match what your child is learning at school • Follow their progress across games, lessons, and challenges • See their career interests evolve as they explore • Guide their learning without hovering over every session
For homeschooling families
Arludo is used by homeschooling families across Australia. It provides structured, curriculum-aligned science content that fits into any learning programme — and it’s completely free. The Science Portal is especially useful for homeschooling parents: you can set the topics, track every session, and build Arludo into your weekly schedule. It’s the control layer that makes it a complete home learning solution.
