Get ready for an unforgettable summer adventure that will ignite your child's imagination and fuel their passion for learning! We are thrilled to announce our immersive LEGO WeDo 2.0 Summer Camp, where creativity, building, and coding come together to create an educational experience like no other. The LEGO WeDo 2.0 Summer Camp offers an exciting and hands-on experience for children aged 8-12. This educational camp combines building with LEGO bricks and coding to teach STEM concepts in a fun and interactive way.  During the camp, your child will have the opportunity to:  Build: Using LEGO bricks, motors, and sensors, children will create various models under the guidance of experienced instructors. Step-by-step instructions will be provided, allowing them to build animals, vehicles, and machines. Their creativity will shine as they customize and modify their models.  Code: Once the models are built, children will bring them to life by coding using a visual programming language. With the help of a computer or tablet, they will learn to use the drag-and-drop interface to select programming blocks and arrange them in a sequence. This will enable their models to perform different actions, such as moving, making sounds, or responding to their surroundings.  Learn: The LEGO WeDo 2.0 Summer Camp provides a dynamic learning environment. Children will explore STEM principles, including gears, levers, pulleys, and sensors, while actively engaging in problem-solving, critical thinking, and logical reasoning. Instructors will guide them through the process, encouraging experimentation and collaboration with fellow campers.  The camp will be conducted in person, ensuring an immersive experience for your child. They will have the opportunity to interact with instructors and peers, fostering social connections and teamwork.  Join us at the LEGO WeDo 2.0 Summer Camp to ignite your child's imagination, develop their STEM skills, and create lasting memories.
