Kids Say…
“Some of the children mastered scanning by themselves. I was really impressed! Especially since we had only 4 mornings to work on programming! All of the parents were so impressed, and daily children were heard on more than one occasion saying, “This is the best camp I’ve ever been to!!!” I had lots of great comments from parents, too.”

“Look, look what I did. I made it myself!”
- Child
“It is not a robot. It is something that you can program to do what you want. It is much better!”

Parents Say…
“My daughter loved it because she and her friends created a puppet show and the puppets sang and danced.”
- Parent
“I really was scared and skeptical, and then when my son tried it, I was just blown away with how great everything was and the kinds of things he was able to do.”
