Roots 2 STEM — Video Game Design

My son recently participated in the Roots 2 STEM Video Game Design program in Calgary, and overall, it was a great experience. The small group size allowed for more personal interaction with the instructor, Jordan, who was excellent at guiding the kids through the game development process. My son was thrilled to create his own game character and learned about programming basics. However, I did notice that there was quite a bit of screen time, which I worry about since he spends a lot of time on devices at home. Pickup was smooth, and the staff communicated well with parents. If your child is creative and interested in technology, this program is definitely worth considering, but keep an eye on the balance between screen time and other activities.

My son recently attended the Roots 2 STEM Video Game Design program in Calgary, and overall, it was a solid experience. The pickup process was smooth, and we appreciated the small group size, which allowed the instructor, Jenna, to give personalized attention to each participant. My son really enjoyed creating his own character and designing levels for his game, which sparked his creativity in ways I hadn't expected. The only downside was that I noticed he spent quite a bit of time in front of the screen, which worried me a little. Overall, the environment was friendly and engaging, making it easy for him to make new friends. I would recommend this program, especially for kids who have a passion for creativity and technology.”
