Lego robotics club — Robotics

We recently enrolled our 9-year-old in the Lego Robotics Club in Edmonton, and overall, it was a solid experience. The program runs weekly, which fits perfectly into our schedule. My child was thrilled to build a robot that could navigate a simple obstacle course, using various Lego kits and programming it with help from the instructor, Alex, who was notably patient and engaged with the kids. One small annoyance was the long lines during pickup; it can get a bit crowded as parents swarm the area, making it tricky to navigate with younger siblings in tow. However, my child really enjoyed the creative aspect and made a couple of new friends. The small group size allowed for more one-on-one guidance, which was a plus. While there are some logistical hiccups, I would recommend this club for kids interested in robotics who thrive in a supportive environment.

I enrolled my 9-year-old son in the Lego Robotics Club in Edmonton, and overall, it was a positive experience. The instructor, Jake, was really engaging and encouraged the kids to think creatively while building their robots. My son particularly loved working on a project where they had to program their Lego creations to navigate a small obstacle course. Watching the kids troubleshoot and work together was rewarding. However, pickup was a bit disorganized on the first day, leading to some long lines as parents waited to collect their kids. We did get through eventually, but it would be nice if they could improve that process. The small group size was a definite plus, allowing for more one-on-one time with the instructor. Despite the minor hiccups, my son has made a new friend and is excited to continue learning in the next sessions. I would recommend this program for other parents looking for a fun and educational activity for their kids.
