Dearborn Heights, MI – Zahraa Mougnieh is the founder and owner of Kid Chemist. Created in 2019, It’s an educational program for children and young adults, ranging from preschool age through college age, which teaches science in an entertaining way. It focuses on several types of sciences, in addition to chemistry.

“We offer a lot,” explains Zahraa. “We want students to come to us in our lab environment, where we create programs once a week which each lasts sixty to ninety minutes. Our curriculums are based on organic chemistry, general chemistry, anatomy, and biology. It’s all designed to be a hands on experience.”

“We also work with schools for field trips and assemblies, where we do the craziest experiments and then teach the students about it,” adds Zahraa. “Also, we offer after school programs. Other services include one-on-one tutoring, where the subject range goes beyond the sciences and includes other subjects, and the ages range from pre-school all the way to college level. She offers birthday parties where she serves liquid nitrogen ice cream and chemist breath balls, also made with liquid nitrogen. We also have Kid Chemist Kits that can be purchased online to continue the learning at home.”

One of the more unique aspects to Kid Chemist is that the students wear lab coats. Zahraa feels that this gives kids that boost of confidence, similar to how she felt in college when she wore her lab coat. “We want our students to feel like a kid chemist,” declares Zahraa. “We like to give back to our kids by offering them scholarships for a science fair that we hold.”
