What your child will experience

8 weeks of building, creating & discovering 🎡

...race their own handbuilt racecar and see whose catapult throws the farthest — all in the first few weeks.

Each week of Kinderbots, your child arrives to a brand-new challenge and leaves with something they built with their own hands. From spinning windmills and zooming racecars to a working catapult and even a magic wand, they'll bring 8 unique LEGO®-based creations to life across the 8-week journey. Every build is designed to move, spin, sense, or surprise — so the moment your child powers something on, the payoff is immediate and deeply satisfying.

The skills your child builds happen naturally, woven right into the fun. Working with a partner each session, they'll practice following multi-step instructions, sharing ideas, and figuring out what to do when something doesn't work the first time. Early concepts like motors, sensors, and basic programming are introduced in a way that feels like play — because at ages 4–7, that's exactly how lasting learning happens.

Over 8 weeks, you'll notice something beyond what they can build: a child who walks in taller, asks more questions, and can't wait to show you what they made. Kinderbots isn't just a robotics class — it's where your child first discovers that they are someone who can make things work.

🏆Builder's Confidence — Week by week, your child grows a genuine belief that they can figure things out — the foundation of a lifelong STEM identity
