Kidogo Productions
About
Kidogo Productions is a Boston children’s edutainment company that creates culturally responsive learning kits for preschoolers, made for daycares and families seeking authentic representation of Black children and the African Diaspora. Its first kit teaches foundational geometry alongside West African Adinkra symbols representing values such as friendship, community and leadership. Kits include a children’s book, activity books, a memory match card game, an interactive board, stickers and QR codes linking to songs, a video game and the full curriculum.
Founder and CEO Keeana Saxon, a Boston mother, attorney and educator, started the company after seeing how mainstream children’s media affected her daughter’s self-esteem. The resulting SSMALL curriculum covers social science, STEM, movement and wellness, arts, literary arts and life skills, and is research-based and standards-aligned. Pre-built lesson plans and assessment tools reduce prep work for educators, and Live Kidogoville Experiences connect classroom learning with family activities.
