CoderDojo at Wellington Heights

Free STEM Event for Kids!

 

Engineering, Creativity, and Entrepreneurship for K-5 Kids

Kids can explore different STEM activities like coding, engineering, and more, all while having fun and being creative. It’s the perfect place for young innovators to learn and play.

Hands-On Stations for your Child to Enjoy:

  • Hour of Code: Engage in self-guided activities tailored to your coding comfort level. Activities include Scratch Block Programming, which allows you to easily build stories and games using “blocks” of code. You can also play Codecombat, an innovative live coding strategy game for beginners. Learn Python or JavaScript as you defeat ogres, solve mazes, and level up.
  • Turing Tumble: a logic puzzle where students work to solve problems using levers and marbles. It helps kids understand computer science concepts without computers! Create your own designs or work through the ‘challenge’ booklet for a little more structure to the play
  • Snap Circuits: Learn basic engineering, electronics, and circuitry concepts using Snap Circuits! Snap Circuits use easy-to-connect components to assemble electronic circuits on a simple “rows-and-columns” base grid that you build functions like the printed circuit boards in most electronic products.
  • 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.

Please Register for this event, so we can adequately prepare – Thank you!
