Why Should Your Child Join?

Our previous workshops have been a huge success, and we’re excited to bring even more innovative activities this time around. Here are some highlights from our past events that your child can look forward to:

  • Building with Scratch and Makey Makey Microbits: Watch your child’s eyes light up as they create interactive stories, games, and animations using Scratch. With Makey Makey Microbits, they can turn everyday objects into touchpads and connect them to the internet.
  • Making Music with Bananas: Yes, you read that right! Kids learned to code and make music using bananas, turning fruits into fun, educational instruments.

Our workshop is designed to provide a comprehensive learning experience, starting with the basics and progressing to more advanced concepts. Here’s what’s in store:

  • Basic Package (KES 7,000): (6 Sessions)
    Introduction to coding fundamentals, simple projects with Scratch, and hands-on activities with Makey Makey Microbits.
  • Standard Package (KES 9,000): (8 Sessions)
    In-depth coding techniques, project-based learning, and real-world applications of coding skills.
  • Premium Package (KES 13,000): (10 Sessions)

    Advanced coding topics and real-world applications, with individualized guidance and project customization.


Why Coding?

Coding is a fundamental skill that opens up a world of opportunities. By learning to code, your child will develop critical thinking, problem-solving, and creativity. These skills are not only essential for future careers in technology but are also valuable in everyday life.

We believe that learning should be fun and engaging. Our experienced instructors ensure that each session is interactive and tailored to the needs of young learners. With a supportive and dynamic environment, your child will thrive and enjoy every moment of their coding journey.

Don’t miss out on this incredible opportunity! Sign up your child for Africa's Talking Kids Coding Workshop today. Spaces are limited, so be sure to register early to secure your spot.
