What children build
Children build real projects. Games, robots, electronics, websites and more.
Beginners usually create two or three projects each day, while more experienced coders work on deeper projects with our support.
Different projects run each day, so many families book multiple days.
Projects are adapted for older students and can be more independent, open-ended and challenging.
Starting Out
Projects might include:
- Create a hologram you can hold
- Build a VR course
- Code a microcomputer to count steps
- Program a robot to react to input
Ready to Go Further

I couldn’t be happier.
Unlike the other places we tried where the kids have to share, or it’s all a bit boring, or they keep repeating classes and projects and so on, this is like the best example of learning through play…
