STEAMLabs Presents… Epic Robots!
Our Web Controlled Arduino Robotics summer camp has come to an end and several happy campers are leaving with epic robots! Check out what these kids have built at STEAMLabs–it might inspire you to create some awesome robots of your own.
Charades!
We understand that sometimes kids don’t like to speak in front of big groups, so we decided to let them show us their ideas through charades at our Web Controlled Arduino Robotics Camp.
Watch this kid explain 3D printing
Kids are learning lots of things at STEAMLabs summer camps. Check out what this kid learned about 3D printing:
Epic Minecraft Projects: Week Two
Yesterday we showed off the epic Minecraft creations from our first week of Minecraft Pro camp, and now it’s time to show you all the awesome things our campers accomplished in week two!
Minecraft Pro — Round Two!
If you’re a parent, or a teacher, or an uncle, or anyone else who spends a lot of time with kids, you probably won’t be surprised to hear that our Minecraft Pro camp hit capacity–and even had a waiting list!
Announcing ZerotoStartup!
We’re planning lots of exciting things at STEAMLabs for this fall, and one of the biggest and most exciting is our Zero to Startup program, run in partnership with Ryerson and Celestica.
Step Into Web Controlled Arduino Robotics: Day Four
We’ve spent the last three days going over the curriculum for our Web Controlled Arduino Robotics summer camp, and now it’s time to talk about day four–the day we finally start building robots!
Step Into Web Controlled Arduino Robotics: Day One
Have you ever wondered what goes on at a STEAMLabs summer camp? Well, today we’ve decided to give you a sneak peak into the Web Controlled Arduino Robotics camp by sharing the activities we have planned for a very important day: day one!
Introducing… Jade Robots!
Every year, new technology makes the maker movement more accessible to everyone. The tech does more every year and the costs only get cheaper. And every year, STEAMLabs gets to incorporate some of this awesome new tech into our programs.
IoT For Educators
Two weeks ago STEAMLabs founder Andy Forest ran the first workshop for editors based on our IoT–Internet of Things–curriculum. A group of 15 educators–teachers, librarians and more–gathered to discover how they can bring robotics to the young people they work with. Several had experimented with one form of code or another and some were completely new to the world of programming. All of them showed up excited to learn.

STEP 1
Cut out the Hoop
Draw a box template onto cardboard. It can be any size you want! Just, make sure it is large enough to catch your projectiles, but small enough to be supported by the dowel. We made one that is 5cm x 5cm x 7.5cm
STEP 2
Cut out the Hoop
Draw a box template onto cardboard. It can be any size you want! Just, make sure it is large enough to catch your projectiles, but small enough to be supported by the dowel. We made one that is 5cm x 5cm x 7.5cm
