Coding Lab for Kids: Sphero Robot Obstacle Challenge and more at Apple

Do more with the Apple products you love and join a creative session! Did you know Today at Apple offers various hands-on and free classes for kids and adults relating to Photography, Video, Music, Coding & Apps, Art & Design and Health & Fitness. Today my 7 year-old attended the Coding Lab for Kids: Sphero Robot Obstacle Challenge which was more than I expected. 

The students helped a Sphero robot navigate obstacles using code in the Sphero Edu app on iPad. They explored block-based coding by programming simple movements, adding voice commands, changed colors, and more. The instructor set up obstacles throughout the Apple store and the kids used iPads to program a path for their robot to navigate. iPad devices are provided or you can bring your own. This particular class was recommended for ages 6–12.

Other Programs for Kids & Families:
  • Coding Skills: Programming Robots with Swift Playgrounds
  • Art Lab for Kids: Make Your Own Emoji
  • Music Lab for Kids: Making a Theme Song
  • Photo Lab for Kids: Fun Family Portraits
