[quote=\"klim360\"]Does anyone else recall what exactly those lego robots courses were called?

The simpler course is Lego Wedo, https://education.lego.com/en-us/elementary/shop/wedo-2 for younger kids, the more complicated is Lego ev3 for kids 8 years and above, https://www.lego.com/en-us/mindstorms/about-ev3

Hope this helps.

For most robotic courses, the charges are $300 onwards for a few sessions. After the child completes the course, if he does not have similar robot at home to practice, then he may forget what he has learned and money wasted.


My approach is instead of sending my son to computer/robotics courses, I use the money to buy him a robot and engage a qualified robotic tutor (Around $40 to $45/hr) to teach him at home. This way, after learning, my son can continue playing/programming with the robot any time he wants.

Hello all parents of 2013 child, my son is born in Jan 2013, dragon. :rahrah:

We're lucky that his dad is alumni to a primary school near our place so less headache to look for suitable primary school.
Hope everyone will be able to register for your preferred primary school for your child next year (2019).

Cheers.

Hi everyone, I’m new here, my lovely son is born in Jan 2013. Need advice from fellow parents any tips on how to prepare for primary 1 admission?

There’s a recycling station of e-waste at kembangan CC. It’s near the basketball court, beside the staircase.

My 4 year son is now engrossed in creating simple games with his daddy using a free software call Scratch after reading about it on http://www.giftourprecious.com/scratch-kid-programming-programming-from-scratch/

It is definitely better than simply playing handphone games. At least he learns to create his own simple games to play.
Did any of your child also learn Scratch?
