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.
