Discover Science the Fun Way!
Simple and exciting simulations with clear explanations — no scary formulas. Pick your age and dive in.
Simple and exciting simulations with clear explanations — no scary formulas. Pick your age and dive in.
These 59 simulations are hand-picked from our full library and re-framed for younger learners — the same physics, chemistry, biology and maths engines used across mysimulator.uk, but presented with playful names, bright colours and no scary formulas on screen.
We split them into three age bands so kids can start where they're comfortable and grow into harder ideas over time. 🟢 Ages 5–8 (Magical) is pure sensory play — bubbles, fireworks and sand that respond instantly to a tap or drag. 🔵 Ages 8–11 (Explorer) introduces simple cause-and-effect: watch a flock of birds turn as one, or colours mix and split apart. 🟣 Ages 11–14 (Researcher) starts naming the real science — chaos theory, gravity, electric fields — while still keeping the maths out of view until they're curious enough to ask for it.
Every simulation runs instantly in the browser with nothing to install, no account to create, and no ads or in-app purchases — just click a card and start exploring. When a child is ready to go further, each one links onward into the site's full catalogue of 1,300+ simulations organised by subject.
Yes. There are no accounts, no chat with strangers, no comment sections and no in-app purchases anywhere on the site. Every page is just a simulation you can click, drag and explore — nothing is collected from your child beyond standard, anonymous site analytics.
No. Every simulation runs instantly in the browser tab — no installs, no plugins, no sign-up. Just tap a card and it loads.
We group simulations into three bands: 🟢 ages 5–8 (Magical) uses big, colourful, playful visuals with almost no reading required; 🔵 ages 8–11 (Explorer) introduces simple cause-and-effect concepts like flocking, patterns and colour mixing; 🟣 ages 11–14 (Researcher) starts to name the real science — chaos, gravity, electric fields — while keeping the maths out of sight.
Yes, completely free, with no ads and no paywalls. All content is published under a CC BY 4.0 licence, so schools and families can use it without restriction.
Absolutely. Every simulation can be projected on a whiteboard or opened on student devices individually, and linked directly from a lesson plan or embedded in an LMS with an iframe — no licence key needed.
Yes. They're built with standard web technology (WebGL, Canvas and JavaScript) and are touch-friendly, so they run in any modern browser on a phone, tablet, Chromebook or laptop without extra hardware.
No. We don't run ads, sell data or target children with any marketing. There is nothing to buy and nothing to click other than the simulations themselves.
The underlying models are simplified for clarity but not for accuracy — flocking birds really do follow the same separation-alignment-cohesion rules researchers use, and the chaos and gravity simulations use real physics engines. We just hide the formulas and jargon behind friendly names and colours.
Yes — use the filters on this page to narrow the grid down by age band (5–8, 8–11, 11–14) or by subject (physics, chemistry, space, biology, maths), or combine both to find exactly the right simulation.
Every kid-friendly simulation links onward to the site's full catalogue of 1,300+ simulations, organised by subject in Categories, so older kids and teens can graduate to the full, in-depth versions with real formulas, controls and articles whenever they're ready.
