Kaleidoscope Publications was founded in 1996 and focusses on educational books for adults and children. The publications range in theme from history to science, including the environment, literature and art. Imagination, an eye for detail and an attractive layout are hallmarks of the company.

Kaleidoscope Publications's role in producing the Kit
Kaleidoscope Publications is responsible for the package’s production. This includes the design of the package, and the layout and illustrations of the contents.



Kaleidoscope Publications design books and educational packs which assist in stimulating and furthering children’s curiosity, increase their willingness to work in teams, and help them acquire an appreciation of the environment. Moreover, these books can be used as supplementary bibliography for teachers who wish to enrich their teaching material in class. Thus, children are trained to seek further sources, to develop research techniques and develop their investigative skills.

Kaleidoscope Publications have developed a communication network with teachers from all over Greece. They also organise book presentations, seminars on educational matters and collaborate with Museums, Children’s libraries and Cultural Foundations in designing and promoting educational material.

Recent activities:
- Founding of a Children’s Library in Xanthi, in collaboration with the Municipal Authorities.
- Distributing two thousand copies of the educational pack “A box full of water” for the Ministry of Education to elementary schools.
- Organizing seminars addressed to teachers who are willing to carry out projects on the Environment, in collaboration with the Water Authorities of Athens, Larissa, Chania, Arta, Kerkyra, and Kilkis.
- Presentation of the latest teaching methods for acquiring reading and writing skills, based on the educational pack “The technology of the written word”.
- Lectures on everyday life in Byzantium, in collaboration with the Philekpedeftiki Eteria (educational organization).
