Where Curiosity Builds Something Real: ICE Robotics After-School Program for Ages 5 to 13

The school bell rings, backpacks hit the floor, and for many kids the afternoon becomes a blur of screens and snacks. What if those hours could become the most exciting part of their day?

At ICE Robotics, our after-school program turns curiosity into creation. Kids don’t just hear about science and technology. They build it, test it, break it, and make it better.

Robotics also builds skills that matter well beyond the lab:

• Problem-solving: When the robot doesn’t do what it’s supposed to, kids learn to figure out why and try again.
• Creativity: There’s no single right design, so every child’s robot looks a little different.
• Teamwork: Building together teaches communication, sharing ideas, and celebrating each other’s wins.
• Resilience: Failed tests are part of the process. Kids learn that mistakes are just the next step forward.
• Confidence: Few things feel better than watching something you built come to life.

Small Groups, Big Attention

Great learning happens when every child is seen. Our instructors guide small groups so each student gets the support they need, whether that’s a nudge for a shy beginner or a bigger challenge for a kid who’s racing ahead.

What Parents Can Expect

• A safe, supportive, and encouraging learning environment
• Age-appropriate curriculum designed by educators who love what they do
• Visible progress, with projects your child can proudly explain to you at home
• A community of curious kids who share the same interests

Ready to Join the Adventure?

Whether your child is already dreaming of building robots or has never touched a coding block, ICE Robotics is the place to start. No experience is required, just curiosity and a willingness to try.

Spots are limited to keep our groups small.
