HEADU is an innovative Italian company. It believes in fostering a child's curiosity from an early age. It encourages children to explore, discover and develop fundamental skills for life-long learning through a series of beautifully illustrated, academically-developed educational kits. These include Montessori inspired learning activities, puzzles and games.

HEADU uses play as a medium for skills transfer. Its educational kits encourage and promote seven innate and individual forms of human intelligence as defined by the eminent American psychologist, Howard Gardener. These includes linguistic, musical, spatial and logical capabilities. HEADU's inhouse research centre is constantly developing tools to activate these capabilities in consultation with prestigious educators, teachers and early-age development specialist.

The HEADU learning method features a range of educational tools for achieving specific skills through play. A child applies their intelligences to resolve simple; or increasingly complex educational activities. Then, highly-motivated by their learning experience, they progressively develop new, and ever more empowering, capabilities.

When kids enjoy an activity, HEADU knows it's got it right! For example, early age learners often experience the world through their hands. Therefore, the more tactile a learning experience, the more fully children will engage. Inspired by this insight, HEADU tests, trials and ultimately integrates Montessori-inspired sensory elements into many of its products. This includes thoroughly testing and evaluating new products in selected schools before they're launched onto the market.

HEADU also integrates multiple play experiences into its educational kits. Take the popular Step By Step Drawing School as an example. This kit includes 10 four-piece puzzles. The illustration on each puzzle teaches a child to draw an animal. An enclosed drawing board and erasable marker then lets them practice drawing each animal. In other words, one compact kit delivers more than 20 learning activities.

HEADU products are fun, engaging and made with durable, quality materials. They feature original illustrations with an engaging and polished style. They're made in Italy with contributions from forward-thinking authors, designers and illustrators all over the world. Each kit is made from a range of natural materials including cardboard, wood and fabric. The final product is then packed and presented in a durable, colourfully illustrated artboard box (which includes a handy cord handle).
