The Important Skills that Our Children Will Need in The Future

Skills for 2040 – The Important Skills that Our Children Will Need in The Future

The skills we need to succeed in life change all the time as things advance, especially technology. What will the children of today — our children — need to be good at in the future, when they’re grown up?

Learn with OjO is an up and coming children’s education company that has just launched their first range of Maker Kits on Kickstarter.

OjO promotes 5 core skills that they believe every child needs to succeed in the future when 30% of jobs will most likely be lost to robots.

The 5 core skills are:

• STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics)
• Communication
• Creativity
• Wellbeing
• Global Awareness

It is now more important than ever to join the maker movement and teach the next generation the ability to innovate, solve problems and collaborate. OjO is preparing children for the new world through open-ended activity kits and workshops.

Their Maker Kits are an inventive approach to solving 21st century problems for children of 3+ years old. Children can learn about current global issues through fun and engaging activities: go on a mission to Mars, build a nest for a bird or a raft that floats!
