KinderBots LEGO® Robotics Camp


*The event has already taken place on this date: Fri, 07/31/2020
Children will begin to explore the world of robotics as they build simple models that teach the fundamentals of robotic design. Whether learning about sensors while building drills and magic wands, or discovering ways that gears and pulleys create movement while building helicopters and robotic dogs, your child is sure to have a great time.

Please help us keep this calendar up to date! If this activity is sold out, canceled, or otherwise needs alteration, email mindy@kidsoutandabout.com so we can update it immediately. If you have a question about the activity itself, please contact the organization administrator listed below.

Children will begin to explore the world of robotics as they build simple models that teach the fundamentals of robotic design.

What The Students Will Learn:

  • Simple Machines
    Students will learn about several simple machines throughout the class. Whether learning about pulleys while creating a windmill, or levers as they are launching cotton balls on catapults, students will see simple machines in action. They will also begin to think critically about their surroundings and realize all the simple machines they use every day.

  • Axles, Gears, and Motors
    Children will learn about the importance of axles, gears, and motors in mechanical movement. They will actively experiment with these components to create their robots, while facilitating a deeper understanding of mechanics.

  • Programming Skills
    Each week, children will be given a simple program to operate their robotic build. Students are then encouraged to use critical thinking and programming skills to enhance their robot’s program. Whether making their build respond to motion and tilt sensors, adding loops, or creating fun sounds, children will learn valuable programming skills in an easy to use, drag and drop programming format.

  • Teamwork/Partner Skills
    At Snapology, teamwork is essential for creating a fun and productive atmosphere while practicing social skills. Your child will work with a partner to create each robot and solve each challenge presented in class.
