Current Workshops Open For Registration

Combat Robotics Workshop

Discover the world of combat robotics! Join us for a 4-week journey where students bring engineering and creativity to life! Students will keep their 1lb plastic ant robot that they build in the workshop.

Scratch Coding Club

Spark your child’s creativity through coding! In Scratch Coding Club, homeschoolers design animations and build games while learning real programming skills in a fun, hands-on way.

Brick Contraptions Workshop

Build, test, and invent with LEGO®! In this 5-week Brick Contraptions Workshop, homeschoolers explore simple machines and create Rube Goldberg–style chain reactions that pop balloons, ring bells, and spark imagination.

Designed for homeschoolers who love to learn by doing, the Winter STEM Series combines creativity, teamwork, and real-world problem-solving. Each session challenges students to think like engineers, coders, inventors, and entrepreneurs as they design, build, and innovate through hands-on winter-themed projects. It’s the perfect mix of imagination, innovation, and inspiration—where ideas come to life!

Design, build, and test LEGO contraptions that compete in Winter Games events! Explore force, motion, and friction while racing sleds, building ski jumps, and earning creativity medals.

Bring imagination to life with coding! Use Scratch to design interactive winter stories and games while learning logic, loops, and animation.

Invent with heart! Students brainstorm real-world problems and build gadgets that help others during the winter season – then present their inventions in a fun showcase.

Experiment, build, and explore the science behind snow! Launch snowballs, melt ice, build frozen towers, and create a blizzard in a bottle while learning key STEM principles.
