Our Little Coders camp is an opportunity for young children to develop their computational thinking skills, build their first programs, and have fun with new friends! The curriculum is designed specifically for early readers and takes into account cognitive abilities as well as the attention span typical for ages 5-7. We use age-appropriate online tools, including Lightbot, Kodable, and Scratch to introduce basic coding skills. After the camp, students will be able to share their projects with family and friends and continue programming at home with their Coding with Kids Scratch account. Prerequisites: Basic reading helpful but not required. Can handle mouse and keyboard comfortably.

Explore the world of programming with Python! Learn one of the most versatile and beginner-friendly programming languages, used by professionals in diverse fields from software development to scientific research. In this course, students will be introduced to core coding concepts such as variables, loops, functions, and conditionals. To apply and practice the concepts, students will build interactive projects like Dodge the Meteors. Then, they’ll learn intermediate-level coding concepts like arrays, functions with parameters, and game physics! Applying these skills, they will unleash their inner game designers and build their own versions of classic arcade games like Brick Breaker, Bubble Pop, Star Invaders, and Pong. By the end of the course, students will not only have a solid foundation in Python but will also be able to design and develop their own arcade games, combining fun with practical coding experience. This camp combines content from both our beginner camp 'Python: Intro' and our intermediate camp 'Python: Arcade Games'. Needed Supplies: Bring your District Chromebook and charging cord.

Looking for a hands-on STEM course your Little Coder will love? In this course, students will have a blast while learning about robots and how they work. Through visual programming, students will learn computational thinking and basic programming concepts such as: pseudo-coding, code structure, variables, and loops. Students will participate in fun and engaging activities to practice problem-solving and creative thinking. They will complete interactive projects and code their robots to perform tasks like turning the robot’s lights on and off, playing music, moving, and detecting sound. Prerequisites: Basic reading helpful but not required. Can handle mouse and keyboard comfortably.

Learn to code a cool robot! In this course, students will learn the basics of programming a robot and discover how the robot’s hardware components, such as sensors, work. Using a block-based, visual programming platform, young coders will be introduced to fundamental concepts, including code structure, variables, and loops. They'll harness these concepts, together with problem-solving and creative thinking skills, to program their robot to tackle mission challenges. These challenges include avoiding obstacles, sensing and responding to sound, and autonomously navigating a maze. Join us and unleash your inner robot code!

Students may only register to attend in-person enrichment classes on their home campus.

Embark on an exciting coding adventure! This comprehensive full-day camp blends coding and creative game development. Students will use Scratch, a fun drag-and-drop coding environment, to learn fundamental coding concepts like variables, loops, and conditionals. Applying these concepts, students will build interest-based games, such as Pet and Ball, Shark and Fish, and Snowman Maze. They will creatively design characters and craft scenes to bring their own story and animation ideas to life. Then, they will level up to intermediate coding concepts like events, functions, and game physics to build engaging platformer games, including a custom Mario game. This camp is a perfect mix of fun and learning! This camp combines the content from both our beginner camp 'Scratch: Intro to Game Development' and our intermediate camp 'Scratch: Platformer and Maze Games I'. Required Supplies: District Chromebook and charging cord used during the school year that was to be sent home for summer.

Ready to learn one of the most widely used programming languages in the world? Then this is the class to sign up for. Python is a very versatile and easy-to-learn starter language that is widely used by software developers, scientists and data analysts, from medical research to applications at NASA. Through the games they create, students will learn and practice core coding concepts and learn Python-specific concepts and syntax. Projects range from trivia quizzes to competitive two-player games and everything in between. Students will gain valuable experience with key concepts such as data structures and algorithms. Needed Supplies: Bring your District Chromebook and charging cord. For questions about this specific class, please contact schools@codingwithkids.com

Create, Code, and Play! In Video Game Design Studio, young creators dive into the world of game design using fun, kid-friendly, block-based coding platforms like Scratch. Students bring their imagination to life as they design colorful characters, build exciting levels, and code their own interactive games—no prior experience needed! Each day combines guided lessons and creative play, helping campers learn logic, sequencing, and problem-solving while expressing their ideas through digital storytelling. By the end of the week, every student will have their own fully playable game to share with family and friends. The week wraps up with a Game Showcase Celebration, where campers present their creations, play each other’s games, and celebrate their accomplishments as young game designers.
