Spring Bot Basics 101: 4 to 13 (K to 8th)

Sping 2 Promotion: 30% off for the first 12 sign-ups of any given class!
Continuing Student Promotion: 30% off for any student continuing from Spring 1 Semester!

Each class runs for two hours with a late pick-up or early drop-off fee of $15/half hour. Programs are now priced with a snack. Please inform us of any dietary restrictions or allergies so we may prepare a snack specific to your child's needs.  

Please see Bot Basics 102 for Full Policy List. Bot Basics 101 is slower paced for younger students and offers builds that don't require soldering. In addition to the builds available in Bot Basics 102, students can also choose: 

• Solar Powered Transformer Dinosaur/Beetle
• Mystic Movie Maker
• Not Quite Solar Flashlight
• 4 wheel drive Race Car 
• an RC dinosaur
  
  Kids are not committed to this track necessarily so long as they understand the skills required for the build (Party glasses for example are fairly basic but long). If a child has capability, we can give them more to do. Advanced builds (blue tooth speakers) may not always be available in multiples since it is a significant cost for those parts. Everyone will go home with at least 1 big toy (race car, blue tooth speaker, etc.) by end of semester. 
  
  Free pick-up is available at certain schools including, but not limited to, Arts & Leters. As we grow, we'll update the list. Please write to us and inquire about pick-up at your school. Likewise, please inform us if your child will be walking over. Upon Sign-up, please include the name of your child, their teacher's name and their school. We can take it from there.
