6 SKILLS KIDS CAN LEARN BY STUDYING ROBOTICS

Do kids have fun studying robotics? You bet they do! But one of the best things about this field of study is that it can teach them a variety of skills — many of which kids may not even know they’re learning. At Bliss Team Educational Services Kids we’re always excited to see kids develop on their own and here are six ways they can do that by studying robotics.

1. Kids build their scientific knowledge

When kids work with robotics, they learn all sorts of scientific concepts like light, force, speed, sound, electromagnetics, and more. They learn how to use the right tools for different purposes. They learn not just how to use these concepts within the world of robotics but beyond.

2. Kids learn more about technology

It’s no surprise that kids learn technological skills while studying robotics but you may be surprised by how far these skills can take them. Believe it or not, programming is becoming a highly sought after language and kids can learn everything from Android to Apple. They’ll learn the basic tenants of coding and how what they do can create robotic movement.

3. Kids get a solid foundation in engineering

Do you think your kid is too young to learn about engineering? Think again. By engaging in robotics, kids will learn how to create a problem statement, how to analyze it, and how to design and test solutions. These are the same steps that professional engineers take when faced with a problem.

4. Mathmatic skills are increased

Applied mathematics is an integral part of every  Bliss Team Educational Services. No matter where they are in their math skills, we can help improve them simply by teaching them robotic skills. They’ll learn everything from measurements to creating and using formulas.

5. Kids will learn how to collaborate

Does your child have trouble working win groups? Whether they’re simply shy or they prefer to work alone, by learning robotics they’ll also learn how important it can be to collaborate to solve problems, plan solutions, allocate tasks, and execute tasks as a group. Similar to how they would perform a team sport, they’ll divide tasks and rotate to complete them throughout a specific project.

6. Kids can learn the basics of marketing

Depending on the specific class your child takes with us, they may prepare and present their solution and their robotics program to the other groups. This requires them to think critically in a different way and can boost their marketing knowledge.
