Engineering for Kids

This program is currently unavailable. Click here to view all of our current programs.


At Engineering for Kids we believe that children are natural born engineers who have unlimited imaginations and unbridled enthusiasm.  We offer fun, hands-on learning for children ages 4-12.  Our activities range from building flashlights and rockets to programming video games and robots.  The variety of programming is extraordinary!

Software Engineering:  Scratch - Video sensing (ages 8-14)
What's more fun than playing an interactive video game?  Writing one!  Video sensing allows students to design and program their own video games and then test them by interacting with the program via webcam.  In this Scratch program, students work together to create their own games, art, and musical instruments while exploring coding foundations.  get up and get moving with Engineering for Kids and Scratch: Video Sensing!  

Rubber Band Racer (ages 8-14)
Students will be challenged to build a race car that is propelled by a non-traditional power source.  A rubber band will power the racer creating an energy source that can be used indefinitely.  Students will also be challenged to modify their racer so that it can consistently stop on a finish line.

* Adjustments and discounts will be applied during checkout if applicable. *
