In this event the participants will see a live demonstration of a large drum robot being built, and will have the opportunity to code / play music with it. There will also be 2 dedicated workshops where the participants (kids) will create a similar project by coding on Scratch. In addition, the event will also host other workshops and activities for kids on coding and robotics, interactive games, challenges and activities. The aim of the event is to expose kids ages 4-13 and their parents to the domain while demonstrating how fun, interactive and simple it can be to code on the computer and also program and work with robotics. The event is open to the general public and will give the participants the opportunity not only to be exposed to it in a passive format, but also in an active and interactive one. The event is open to the general public, participation in most of the activities is not limited in number of participants and is free. We also offer support to kids from disadvantaged backgrounds, such as refugees, low income households etc. The support is offered throughout the year and not only in events, in the format of offering subsidies of 25% up to 75% for participants based on their socioeconomic status. We also offer laptops and other required equipment for use in the activities for kids that do not have their own.

2 workshops of 3 hours each, the participants will be exposed to content and teaching methodologies to be used in the domain, mainly for coding and robotics to work with kids ages 4-13. The participants (adults) will also have the opportunity to experiment and do hands on activities and experiments on their own / in small groups to get a better understanding of what their options are in terms of delivering such activities to their kids and students. Brainstorming, discussions and use cases analysis will be done as part of the event to give the participants multiple views and approaches. The event will aim to reach underrepresented groups directly and indirectly.
