Dadu workshops are linked to Qatar’s educational curricula for the kindergarten and primary levels. Our approach, based on learning through play and on social constructivist theory, takes into account multiple intelligence and learning styles. We also provide free educational content to teachers and parents to complement and support classroom learning.
