    • Switch

    • Wires

    • Motor

Hands-On Demonstration:
Parents and children work together to create a simple circuit and see how electrical energy can power an LED or motor.

Goal: Understand that electronic components work together to make machines and robots operate.

11:30 AM – 12:10 PM | Build Your Robotics Project

40 minutes

Topics:

  • What is a robot?

  • How does a robot move?

  • Introduction to:

    • Motors

    • Wires

    • Battery holder

    • Switch

    • Robot structure

Hands-On Project:
🤖 Build Your Own Mini Robot

Parents and children will:

  1. Identify the robot components.

  2. Assemble the robot structure.

  3. Install the motor and moving components.

  4. Connect the electrical components.

  5. Install the battery.

  6. Test the robot.

  7. Troubleshoot the robot if necessary.

Goal: Learn how electronics, engineering, and mechanical components work together.

Take-Home Project #1: Each child takes home the robot they assembled.

12:10 – 12:30 PM | Introduction to 3D Printing

20 minutes

Topics:

  • What is 3D printing?

  • What is a 3D printer?
