Your Kids Will:
- Learn how things work and gain the skills to create their own solutions
- Develop problem-solving and critical thinking skills
- Develop empathy, curiosity, grit and creativity
- Build and design their own robots with screwdrivers, nuts, and bolts
Course Overview: Introduction to Robotics and Block-based Coding
This course will inspire excitement for learning about robotics and computer based programming. Your kid will learn to work through problems with the support of social emotional learning and a focus on grit. And will be able to build and program their own robotic design by the end of the course.
Your kids will learn about the engineering design process, infrared technology, motors electricity, logic, algorithms, sequential thinking, loops, conditional statements and practice different social emotional skills such as empathy, grit and creativity.
Course includes RoboRobo Kit ($199 value)
These robotic sets are educational, engaging, and offer lots of flexibility for your kids to create and program their own designs.
- Sets include CPU, LEDs, DC Motors, Infrared Sensors, a Buzzer, Contact Sensors and free coding software.
- Includes workbooks with step by step building guides for 10+ builds.
- The open build and open coding platform allows your kids to learn the technology and coding terminology in an incremental way and then take their knowledge to the next level by designing, building, and coding their own creation – including a battle bot, a problem based learning solution, and more!

“My daughter (going to middle school) … was able to learn some basic robotics and coding and then built her own music box as the final project on the last day. She was proud of her project and brought it to show off at a friend’s place. She’s attended other coding classes but was never that interested in them. This class was different, allowing more creativity, rather than just following some exercises.”

Kids Love Us“This is the best education center where a student can learn about the fundamental skills of engineering and STEM while having much fun. I have been going here for a year, and I think that I have learned a lot. I’ve also made many new friends. The teachers here are very supportive of everybody, and they don’t put limits on a student’s creativity.”
