LEGO Robotics workshops are a fantastic opportunity to dive into the world of robotics and programming! This session is for beginner LEGO Roboteer families (1 adult and 1 or 2 kids aged 9-12). Explore robotics concepts using the LEGO robotics platform. Campers use “Scratch”-style block coding to guide their LEGO robots through various missions, while learning how to use sensors to help their robots navigate challenges and obstacles. Through building and modifying their robots to complete missions, campers learn problem-solving skills that help them become independent STEAM-thinkers!
