What is a Robot and why should Kids learn to code one?

What’s the first thing that comes to your mind when you hear the word “robot”? Is it a humanoid figure with near-human intelligence that can carry out human-like tasks? Is it an assembly machine in a production line? A space rover? And how can you help your kids learn how to program or code a robot if you’ve never tried it? Read on to find out!

Who likes to play with robots?

Even if it seems like your child doesn’t have an obvious interest in coding, their curiosity will almost certainly be sparked once they get the chance to build a robot of their own. Nearly any hobby or interest your child loves to engage in can act as relevant entry points to robotics and programming. Whether it’s kittens, music, remote-controlled cars, science fiction gadgets, or they generally just enjoy taking things apart to find out how they work and put them back together, your child can be inspired to create a robot that reflects their unique personality and interests, with speech, songs, sounds, lights, movements and interactions.

What can kids build - and how?

Anything they can imagine. Your child will quickly learn how coding skills are used in robotics and how to incorporate these skills in their own robots, machines and designs. The programming software is super easy to use. Simply drag and drop intuitive icons and coding blocks to add movement, functions, timing and interactions into a chain, press ‘play’ and see what happens. That’s all it take to make your child a coding ninja in no time. If your child is not ready to start building robot chickens or dinosaurs to take over the world, they can start with the easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructions provided during the workshop .

Kids build robots – and STEAM confidence

Students combine highly accurate motors and sensors with colorful LEGO elements and an intuitive coding platform to design and build robots, dynamic devices and other interactive models that incorporate most aspects of the STEAM education.

Unleash your child`s creativity and critical thinking skills with the Robotics for Kids workshop at STEAM Varsity Makerspace:

This hands-on, interactive session is designed to introduce young minds to the exciting world of robotics, blending fun with learning.

STEAM Varsity Makerspace is a creative hub where innovation and imagination come to life. Our state-of-the-art facility is equipped with tools, technology, and resources that empower kids to explore and build in the realms of Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM). This workshop is the perfect way to spark a lifelong interest in technology and engineering, providing an engaging environment for children to learn, grow, and create.

Kids will dive into the basics of building and programming robots using easy-to-use tools and platforms such as LEGO. With innovative pedagogies at STEAM Varsity, participants will explore key concepts like sensors, motors, and coding, while bringing their robots to life!

Whether they`re making robots move, respond to their environment, or even compete in mini-challenges, this workshop fosters teamwork, problem-solving, and technical skills in a playful, supportive environment.

Key Highlights:

- Build and customize your own robot

- Learn the basics of coding and robotics

- Work on team-based projects and problem-solving challenges

- Develop creativity, engineering, and analytical thinking skills

- Explore future careers in robotics and technology

By the end of the session, kids will have a deeper understanding of how robotics impact the world and how they can be the creators of tomorrow`s technology.
