Robotics Explorers
Robotics classes for kids ages 8-12. Explore sensors, circuits, and simple robot builds using a beginner-friendly virtual robotics kit.
Ages 8–16

one on one
Robotics Explorers blends coding with hands-on engineering — perfect for kids who love building things as much as they love figuring out how things work.
Using a virtual robotics simulator (no physical kit purchase required), kids design and program simple robots, experiment with sensors, and solve movement-and-response puzzles: how does a robot know when it's about to hit a wall? How do you program it to turn instead?
Mentors guide each session hands-on, moving from basic circuits and components to actual programmed robot behaviors kids can test, tweak, and improve in real time.
By the end, your child will understand the fundamentals of how sensors, circuits, and code work together to make a machine "smart" — and will have built and programmed several small robots of their own along the way.
No prior coding or engineering experience is needed. This course works especially well for hands-on learners who want to see and control something physical-feeling, even in a virtual environment.
