About CoderDojo

CoderDojo is a free program for kids from kindergarten to 5th grade.

Children can freely explore any STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, & Mathematics) themed stations, with mentors available to help them get started, allowing your child to learn and explore on their own.

Popular, hands-on stations include activities like:

  • Hour of Code: Engage in self-guided activities tailored to your coding comfort level. Activities include Scratch Block Programming, live coding strategy games, and more.
  • Turing Tumble: a logic puzzle where students work to solve problems using levers and marbles. 
  • Snap Circuits: Learn basic engineering, electronics, and circuitry concepts using easy-to-connect components.
  • Microscopes: Kids can explore biology up close with a self-guided microscope with over 200 slides.
  • Drones: Kids can maneuver drones (with adult supervision) around obstacle courses.
