Our belief that nature is at the centre of everything we do, distils into The Youth COSMO Periodical in every word and colour.

The periodical helps our young readers understand complex concepts explained in a simple, conversational manner using relatable scenarios, activities and live projects.

Get involved in activities that let your child take ownership, make decisions, work in a team and find a way out in sticky situations.

 

  • Cultivate deep connections

 

Connect with the 5 core elements of nature. Understand not just how it works but also be able to question ‘why something is the way it is’?

EARTH SCIENCE

What causes Earthquakes? What do different coloured rocks mean? Going beyond the basics of Earth Science, we help children understand the pulse of the planet.

Vegetable Picking

FOOD & HEALTH

Getting children to witness the process of agriculture in the real sense and understand the relation between the way our food is grown and how it impacts our health. 

Waste Management

WASTE
MANAGEMENT

Not limited to just learning about composting, but helping children adopt a ‘reduced wastage’ lifestyle.
