Little Medical School is a pioneer and leading developer of a specialized health education curriculum for children 4-14. It embraces a wide variety of educational programs, including but not limited to personal health, safety, life-saving skills, nutrition, dental care, veterinary and wilderness medicine. Every child had once dreamed to be a doctor and our exciting and interactive curriculum ignites this passion in the world of healthcare careers.

All of our activities are hands-on and children get to practice using real tools that healthcare professionals use.
