The Space Ranger Fred series has relaunched its website with a fresh, interactive design and free resources to make STEM fun for children. Author Matt Newnham’s beloved character now inspires learning through games, comics, activities, and storytelling.
-- The Space Ranger Fred universe just got an upgrade. The popular children’s character has relaunched his official website with a completely overhauled design, fresh features, and a renewed focus on inspiring kids to engage with science, technology, engineering, and maths in a fun and accessible way.
With a bright, interactive layout and free downloadable content, the updated website gives young readers, parents, and educators a central hub to explore the adventures of Fred and his galaxy of characters. At the heart of this refresh is a commitment to making STEM learning exciting and story-driven for primary school learners.
“Fred has always been more than just a character in a book,” says Matt Newnham, author and creator of the series. “He’s a way into learning. With the new site, we’ve created a digital space where children can be entertained while discovering how science and problem-solving work in the real world.”
The original website has served as a companion to the Space Ranger Fred and the Shoelace Adventure book for several years, but the newly relaunched version is designed to do much more. Visitors can now explore new characters, enjoy engaging visuals, play online video games, and access free activity sheets that reinforce STEM concepts in simple, playful ways. The site also offers a free Space Ranger Fred Comic Book for those who want to get a taste of Fred’s first adventure. (Click here to download the free sample.)
“Too many kids think STEM is boring or too hard,” says Newnham. “Fred helps change that. He makes mistakes. He asks questions. And he solves problems with the tools kids already have: imagination, teamwork, and curiosity. The website reflects that spirit and gives parents and teachers something practical they can use right away.”
Since his first mission in 2015, Fred has become a firm favourite among children, teachers, and parents for his light-hearted approach to serious ideas. The series blends science fiction and everyday challenges to encourage kids to see how big ideas can solve small problems.
The updated website will continue to grow, with plans to expand the free resources and introduce news about upcoming books, animated adaptations, video games and classroom tools. It serves as a foundation for the growing world of Space Ranger Fred and supports the broader mission of using storytelling to open up opportunities for learning.
Matt Newnham is available for interviews to discuss the relaunch, the role of stories in STEM education, and how Fred is helping to shape a new generation of curious minds. To explore the new site or request an interview, visit www.spacerangerfred.com.
