What will your kids learn?
- Your kids will learn to build robots using Lego Mindstorm. Mindstorm is special type of lego units that can be programmed to behave as per the builder’s wishes.
- They will be introduced to programming in order to control the behavior of the robots that they build.
- They will learn to work together with other kids to overcome challenges that are present in the course.
