When a child builds a robot, they are quietly practising some of the most valuable skills of the 21st century.
1. Problem solving
Robots rarely work the first time. Kids learn to test, observe and improve — the engineering design cycle in action.
2. Resilience

3. Teamwork and communication
Team challenges and Demo Day presentations build confidence in explaining ideas to others.
