Is this course suitable for my child’s age? What if they have no previous experience? Will they join a new or existing group?

Yes! We place children by age and experience level: - Visual Programming (VP): Ages 7–11 - Python: Ages 12–16 - Robotics & Game Design: Mixed ages, grouped by skill Most children start with no prior experience — our curriculum begins with beginner-friendly lessons. Depending on your preferred schedule, your child can join either a new group (starting from lesson 1) or an existing group. To ensure the right placement, we always offer a free trial lesson.

Is 90 minutes too long for younger children? Can parents stay during the lesson?

The 90-minute format works very well because it incorporates short breaks, hands-on tasks, and interactive activities that keep children engaged. Children concentrate better without parents in the room, but you are welcome to arrive a little early — we will happily show you the project built during the day.

What language is used for instruction?

All regular courses are taught in German, and all instructors also speak English. If your child needs support in English, we are very happy to assist.

Can my child switch from Visual Programming to Python?

Yes — children can switch from Visual Programming to Python as soon as they are ready. Parents receive weekly updates, progress reports, and project files, which help determine the right transition point together with the teachers.

Can we start on a monthly basis? What happens if my child does not enjoy the course? Are sibling discounts available? What is included in the price?

We offer: - Monthly membership (flexible, cancel anytime) - Full package for the entire course (best price; can be paused for holidays) If your child does not enjoy the course, you can: - Try another course or day - Change locations - Cancel the monthly membership at any time - Start with a free trial lesson Sibling discounts: 10–15% depending on the course. Included in all monthly prices: learning materials, software licenses, platform access, teacher support, progress reports, final presentation. No hidden fees.

Are the courses online or in person?

We offer both in-person teaching and online courses. In-person locations: - Mitte (An der Kolonnade 11) - Prenzlauer Berg (Prenzlauer Allee 186) - GLS Campus (for camps & selected groups)

LEGO Robotics & AI Foundations for Kids (Grades 1–3) in Berlin

In the age of AI, early learners need curiosity, confidence and a simple understanding of how technology responds to instructions and data. By building and coding with LEGO Education, children turn abstract ideas into something they can see, test and improve — developing logic, teamwork and responsible digital habits from the start.

What your child will learn

Follow and explain step-by-step algorithms
Build and program models using a motor and sensor
Use events, sequences and loops with confidence
Explore AI classification safely and creatively
Collaborate, reflect and present a final build

Course content

Module 1. Foundations & Teamwork

Build collaboratively and take team roles, model familiar everyday processes, break a problem into smaller steps, and plan a solution with simple symbols.

Module 2. Hardware: Inputs & Outputs

Explore the motor and colour sensor, identify input, processing and output, connect and test components, and build interactive models.

Module 3. Events

Make programs start from events, trigger movement, light or sound, observe cause and effect, and debug simple event-based code.

Module 4. Sequences

Arrange commands in the correct order, predict and test program behaviour, find and fix errors in a sequence, and complete mission-based builds.

Module 5. Loops

Repeat actions efficiently, compare repeated code with loop blocks, create rhythmic movement patterns, and improve a model through iteration.

Module 6. AI & Data

Explore classification with examples, train and test a simple classifier, discuss accuracy and responsible AI use — closing with a final design challenge and showcase.
