In every child lives a spark, a question waiting to be asked, a world waiting to be built, a story waiting to be told.
Yet across the African continent, far too many children grow up without access to culturally relevant learning tools, technology that speaks their language, or safe spaces where creativity is nurtured. That’s where Bambaverse comes in.
Born from a deep love of African storytelling, play-based learning, and digital innovation, Bambaverse is a pan-African creative tech playground for children aged 7–13, where learning is joyful, storytelling is immersive, and technology is made accessible, safe, and empowering.
We built Bambaverse for the BambaKid; the curious, imaginative child who thrives when given the freedom to build, remix, question, and dream. From Nairobi to Accra, Kigali to Lusaka, we are cultivating a generation of confident creators, rooted in African culture and ready to shape the world.
Bambaverse was founded by two passionate changemakers: a Kenyan creative and a British educator, each with over 20 years of experience in their respective fields. They came together with a shared vision; to use creative and tech tools to craft fun, inspiring, and future-facing content for children across Africa, and to get them AI-ready for the world ahead.
