Toddlers (ages 3 -5)

Shapes, Colors, & Counting

Concept and reasoning development begins very early for children and is a key component for preschool and kindergarten readiness. In Snapology Junior’s Shapes, Colors, & Counting program, your little one will begin to identify basic shapes, where those shapes appear in their environment, and recognize colors and numbers in a variety of ways, all while having fun!

Tuesdays, 10:30 am - 11:30 am or Thursdays, 5:30 pm - 6:30 pm


Elementary (ages 5 - 12)

Combat Robots

Do you think your child can build the strongest and most agile robot? Can their robot win a head-to-head combat mission? Your child will discover basic strategies for building sturdy structures and then apply that knowledge to build a robot for friendly competition. They should be prepared to learn more about engineering while having tons of fun! 

Mondays, 5:30 pm - 6:30 pm


Pokemania

In Snapology’s Pokémania program, students will explore the Pokémon world and practice their Pokémon training skills!  They will create their own training gyms, unique battles, and even their very own generation of Pokémon.  Your student will also explore some real-world science as they examine the habitats, characteristics, and needs of different Pokémon.  They will do more than catch ‘em all, they will build and examine them all very closely and have a blast doing so!

Wednesdays, 5:30 pm - 6:30 pm


Middle School (6th - 8th Grade)

Robot Olympics for Middle Schoolers

In Snapology's Robot Olympics program, students will build and program robots to compete in sports themed challenges! Your middle schooler will expand their engineering skills by designing and experimenting with robotic attachments and refine their computer programming abilities by creating program codes that make their bots run races, play hockey, and so much more. Students will work in groups and use the LEGO® SPIKE™ Prime technology to complete these exciting challenges. By giving our students challenges through games and friendly competition, they don't realize how quickly they are learning core programming skills for a future in STEM.

Tuesdays, 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm
