Creative Robotics with Lego
Does your kid like Lego building blocks?
Does your
kid spend a lot of time with Lego building blocks?
If the answer to the above 2 Qs are "YES", then here’s
something that may interest you – Creative
Robotics.
We have enrolled
Max in Creative Robotix classes.
The kids learned
about robot-building with Lego building blocks and taught about programing with the
robot. Each week, a new mission challenge competition is introduced and the kids are
allowed their own freedom to build their own robot using Lego Mindstorm NXT V2.0, a
programmable robotic kit to achieve the mission objectives.
The best in
the class is adjudged based on creativity, mission achievement, strongest-toughest and
fastest.
When we
enrolled Max for this class, at his request, Lego being his passion, we
intended for him to have playmates with similar passion and having fun. Playing together will help kids improve communication skills and learn interactions. And, we thought this might make a good hobby for him.
Surprisingly, Max won 2 awards so far, the Creative Award and Mission Award.
Lego
robotics would be a natural progression from the existing creative yet static colourful
blocks.
I’m glad we
enrolled him for this class, he seems very happy here and is always looking
forward to the next class.
The price is
pretty steep at RM190 per 4 lessons or RM510 for 12 lessons (once weekly 2
hours) in a class of 10-14pax.
Check it out here.
You can also purchase the Lego Mindstorm NXT V2.0 online here.

School Term-break - Kidzania Kuala Lumpur
Each school holidays will have me thinking up activities for
my kid to fill up his time with fun and learning experience. I’m sure most parents
do that too.
And, we found just the one last week – at Kidzania, Kuala Lumpur!

(Kidzania,Kuala Lumpur)
Kids get to experience adult’s world in a mini kids-city with
some familiar brands to relate to such as Air Asia, TM, KPJ Healthcare, Nippon
Paint, Honda, CIMB Bank, BP, Hitz FM and Sony to name a few. It's an indoor edu-entertainment theme park MINUS the computer games, carousel, roller-coaster!
It’s in CurveNX, Mutiara Damansara, Petaling Jaya, beside IKEA and connected
via SkyBridge from the Curve. As you turn into Jalan PJU 7/2, the Curve is on your left and IPC (Ikano Power Centre)/IKEA on your right. Further down, right after Curve, you will see TESCO, on your left and just directly opposite is Kidzania, ahead to the right. You won't miss it!
The nose of a plane of AirAsia juts out of the side of the building.
