The camp uniquely combines screen-free Kibo robot programming with literature, creative robot-themed crafts, and fundamental electrical engineering concepts for the youngest learners.
The Little Robot Engineer camp introduces young campers, ages 4-6, to the exciting world of robotics and programming using Kibo robots. Campers will engage in hands-on activities to build, program, and decorate their own screen-free Kibo robots, learning to communicate with them using wooden blocks of code. The curriculum also incorporates a strong literature component, drawing inspiration from books like "Where the Wild Things Are." Beyond Kibo robots, children will explore basic robotics principles by designing and creating Art Bots and LEGO Bots, and constructing robots from recycled materials. They will also delve into the basics of conductivity and circuitry using Snap Circuits, building functional photo sensors, flashing lights, and adjustable sirens. The camp aims to spark creativity, develop problem-solving skills, and introduce fundamental STEM concepts in a fun and engaging environment.
A typical day includes general check-in, an all-camp science demonstration, multiple S.T.E.A.M rotations, snack breaks, lunch with recess and face painting, games, and an outdoor component with team and skill-building activities.
This camp is best for young, curious campers aged 4-6 who are new to robotics and enjoy hands-on building, creative projects, and exploring how things work.
