Junkbots

Transform ordinary trash into Junkbots!

In this hands-on program, kids will use everyday materials like cans, nuts, bolts, and other recycled treasures to design and build their own unique robot masterpieces. Along the way, they’ll explore concepts like engineering, creativity, and sustainability, learning how to turn trash into treasure while gaining critical problem-solving skills.

More than just a crafting session, JunkBots introduces fundamental STEM concepts through play. Kids experiment with balance, and motion while developing spatial reasoning and design thinking.

Best of all, they'll discover how creativity and sustainability go hand in hand—learning that today's "trash" could become tomorrow's breakthrough invention!

Appropriate for kids old enough to use a low temp glue gun with adult help!
