Kiwi Kids turns important ideas about New Zealand into stories and activities children can understand and remember.
Each adventure includes a story to read together, questions to discuss, interesting facts to explore and an activity to complete.
It is designed for curious kids, families and teachers who want to learn about our people, land, government, communities, money, work and shared future.
