Children under 6 years old do not need to memorize complex formulas or scientific laws to learn Biology, Chemistry, or Physics. Instead, they learn through touching – observing – trial and error – and feeling, all embedded in everyday play.
This is the educational philosophy that Sky International Preschool—a premium international preschool in Hanoi—has embraced for over 30 years to spark a lifelong passion for scientific exploration in young children.
Biology Begins with Simple Wonders
Children are introduced to Biology in the most natural way—by planting seeds, watering them daily, observing the growth of plants, or watching ants, caterpillars, and butterflies in the schoolyard. These experiences nurture observation skills, patience, and a deep connection with the living world around them.
At Sky, children are encouraged to interact with nature through gardening, caring for plants, and exploring ecosystems—laying a strong foundation for scientific thinking. Nature is not only found outdoors but is also brought into the classroom through safe, natural materials that children are free to touch and explore each day.

Chemistry Starts with Mixing and Experimenting
Chemistry comes alive when children mix colors, stir flour and water, pour liquids, or observe changes in color or texture—like eggs floating or sinking. These playful experiments introduce them to chemical reactions, states of matter, and transformation in a lively, hands-on way.
At Sky International Preschool, these experiences are designed to be safe, age-appropriate, and tailored to each child's interests and developmental stage—nurturing curiosity and building confidence in exploration.
Physics – Learning Through Play, Playing to Learn
A marble rolling down a ramp, wooden blocks stacked into a tower, or water being pushed through a tube—all are vivid demonstrations of Physics at work. Children are naturally exploring concepts like gravity, force, velocity, and balance—essential foundations of science.
At Sky—the first international preschool in Hanoi—the learning environment is purposefully designed to let children freely explore, experiment, and discover. Every play moment is a chance to develop scientific thinking, problem-solving skills, and creativity.
Multi-Disciplinary Learning in Every Moment
At all 3 of Sky's campuses, every activity is more than just “play”—it’s a self-directed journey of discovery across multiple domains. A simple science experiment can spark development in language, motor skills, and emotional intelligence. When building a wooden tower together, children learn Physics and Math while practicing teamwork and problem-solving.
Rather than separating subjects as in traditional education, Sky creates opportunities for children to learn in meaningful, real-life, and inspiring contexts.
