SUMMARY:Snap and Code with Lego Robotics
DESCRIPTION:Children ages 6-10 code with Legos and Scratch. Along the way they will grow more comfortable with the iterative nature of the design process\, which involves experimenting\, failing\, and trying again. This program could be a good fit if you have a creative kid who loves solving puzzles.  Registration is required (coming soon)\, and space is limited to 10 children\, please sign up only if you can commit to coming to both sessions on 4/16 and 4/30. Lego Robotics programming is possible thanks to the support of the Brownell Library Foundation and the Al Bergendahl Fund.
