Welcome to the Imaginary Worlds Research Institute!
What if your child could become an explorer of impossible worlds?
Science Club is a monthly membership where middle school learners become Junior Researchers in the Imaginary Worlds Research Institute—a fictional organization dedicated to studying the science of places that don’t exist…but could.
Each month, learners receive a brand-new research mission that combines real science with imaginative world-building. They’ll investigate strange ecosystems, design habitats, analyze fictional organisms, solve scientific mysteries, and think like real scientists while exploring extraordinary settings.
Every investigation is built on real scientific principles, helping learners strengthen critical thinking, observation, creativity, and problem-solving skills while having fun.
What Makes Science Club Different?
Science Club isn’t a traditional science course. Instead of memorizing facts, learners actively investigate questions such as:
*Could an island float in the sky?
* What would animals need to survive on a frozen world?
*How would plants grow on a planet with two suns?
*Could dragons exist if biology worked differently?
*How would explorers survive inside an artificial habitat?
Every challenge encourages learners to apply real scientific thinking to imaginative scenarios.
What Members Receive Each Month
Each monthly mission may include the following:
*A new research expedition
*Digital field journal pages
*Scientific investigations and experiments
*Creature or habitat design challenges
*Observation activities
*Maps and exploration documents
*Printable researcher resources
*Creative engineering challenges
*Optional extension activities
*A digital wallpaper featuring the month’s world
*A printable Junior Researcher certificate or collectible badge
No two months are the same.

New Research Missions Every Mont
Membership means there is always another world waiting to be explored. One month your learner may investigate a floating ecosystem. The next month they might document the wildlife of an imaginary continent or design survival systems for an artificial space habitat.
Each mission stands on its own while expanding the growing universe of the Imaginary Worlds Research Institute.
Adventure, creativity, and scientific discovery never stop.
