About us

LAULAU is a creative educational company, with its origins in Helsinki, Finland. Laulau was founded in 2008 by Minna Lappalainen, an award-winning music educator and songwriter of children’s music. Since the beginning, the mission of Laulau has been to support a child’s holistic growth and learning through inclusive and creative work methods, as well as to provide teachers and therapists engaging and easy-to-adapt tools for creative and active learning.

Today the Laulau® Learning methods are an established part of the Finnish early childhood, pre-primary, and special education, as well as rehabilitation, e.g. speech, occupational and music therapy. We also have a growing international service network, with partners and representatives in e.g. the United Kingdom, Estonia, Vietnam and Singapore.

Finland is continuously ranked as one of the top education systems in the world, which undoubtedly also has a big impact on the fact that Finland has, already for seven times in a row, been chosen as the happiest country in the world. Finnish early childhood education and care has a strong emphasis on e.g. play-based learning, outdoor pedagogy and spending time in nature, as well as on emotional skills, and children’s interests in pedagogical planning. Instead of quantifiable metrics Finnish ECEC emphasizes the so-called soft skills of balanced growth and taking others into account. Daycare fees are affordable for all families, regardless of the financial situation. Pre-primary education, as well as primary, secondary and upper secondary education are free of charge in Finland.
