Summary: Kinder Ready, the pioneering early childhood education company founded and led by Elizabeth Fraley, is pleased to announce its brand-new “Dragons & Dinosaurs” science and imagination module, launching this fall.
With this timely introduction, Kinder Ready Elizabeth Fraley reaffirms its commitment to bringing rigorous, joyful, science-centered learning into the early years. The “Dragons & Dinosaurs” module will allow young learners to explore paleontology, comparative biology, geologic time, narrative storytelling, artistic expression, and STEM investigations bridging fantasy and fact in a way that fosters curiosity, critical thinking, and conceptual understanding.
In previous years, Kinder Ready under Elizabeth Fraley’s guidance introduced “Timelines (Math, Social Studies Connection),” which helps children understand sequencing, cause and effect, and the passage of time. The new “Dragons & Dinosaurs” module expands that work, adding imaginative spatial thinking and scientific reasoning into everyday early learning.
Elizabeth Fraley Forbes underscores that the “Dragons & Dinosaurs” module is not purely fantasy play, but a bridge: “Young children think in story, they play with imagination. By pairing mythic dragons and real dinosaurs, we create a scaffold that helps them cross from imagination into scientific observation, vocabulary, inquiry, and respectful investigation.”
The module has been field tested over the summer with Kinder Ready Elizabeth Fraley learners across multiple levels, receiving enthusiastic feedback: children stayed engaged longer, asked more detailed questions, compared models to real animals, and families reported extended conversations at home about fossils, Earth’s ancient history, and how animals evolve.
The platform’s mission has always been “to expose children to multiple ways of learning to discover what sparks their interests so they may develop a confidence and a true love for learning.” This new module offers precisely that: multiple entry points (story, play, visuals, inquiry) to engage children on their own developmental pathways. And it ties directly into Kinder Ready Elizabeth Fraley’s core offerings of individualized sessions, readiness assessments, and private school preparation.
To support public awareness and access, the platform will roll out a publicity campaign in September 2025, featuring virtual demo days, short “fossil dig” kits shipped to prospective families, sample video lessons, and open houses for children to explore the new module hands-on. The release of the “Dragons & Dinosaurs” module comes at a moment when the public is renewing interest in science literacy, climate change, evolution, and the intersection of imagination and evidence. Young children are natural scientists and storytellers—and this module leans into both. For Elizabeth Fraley Forbes, it is a logical next step in building depth and delight into early school readiness.
