Turn Thanksgiving Break Into an Engineering Adventure — and Keep The Robot.
3-Day Holiday Robotics & Coding Sprint (Nov 23–25, 2026). Hands-on hardware, real Python & Scratch coding, and a 1:5 instructor ratio across Greater Houston.
What robotics kits and programming languages do kids use?
Students at LearnToBot Summer Camps work directly with LEGO SPIKE Prime, VEX IQ robotics, Arduinos, Raspberry Pis, sensors, motors, and real circuitry — coding in Scratch and Python rather than playing with locked toy kits:
- LEGO SPIKE Prime & VEX IQ competitive robotics platforms
- Scratch visual block logic and real typed Python syntax
- Arduino microcontrollers, breadboard circuitry, and ultrasonic sensors
This isn’t a "camp activity." It’s early engineering exposure.
Real projects, real kids.
Live footage of actual student builds from class — real electronics, microcontrollers, and working code.
RC Explorer Bot
Motorized dual-tread rover with wireless remote control.
Car Racing Game
Scratch logic with keyboard steering and collision detection.
Smart Tollway Gate
Automated servo boom gate with ultrasonic vehicle detection.
Heavy Lift Crane
Gear reduction winch and structural pulley system.
Custom Arcade Controller
Hand-wired pushbuttons and potentiometer paddles.
What Happens in Thanksgiving Camp
No experience needed. Day 1, an engineer assesses your child to set their custom track. With a strict 1:5 instructor ratio, campers scale quickly from basic circuitry to multi-sensor autonomous programming. By Wednesday, they've built and debugged their own custom robot—and they take it home.
Morning Half-Day: 9:30 AM – 12:30 PM ($275 / 3 days)
Afternoon Half-Day: 1:30 PM – 4:30 PM ($275 / 3 days)
Full Day: 9:30 AM – 4:30 PM ($475 / 3 days)
Extended Care: 8:30 AM – 5:30 PM ($10/day)
Skill Placement & Circuit Mechanics
An engineer assesses your child to set their custom track. Campers learn microcontroller pinouts (Arduino / Raspberry Pi), wire breadboard circuits, and get hands-on with real electronics.
Sensors, Motors & Algorithmic Logic
Campers integrate ultrasonic distance sensors, line-tracking modules, and DC motors. They write Scratch or Python code to control robot behavior and navigate obstacles.
Autonomous Arena & Take-Home Build
Final build and debugging sprint. Students optimize their autonomous bots, participate in the obstacle challenge, and take their fully working robot kit home to keep.
What do kids build during LearnToBot summer camp? Real robots they take home.
Yes, every camper at LearnToBot builds, wires, and programs a custom robotic machine that they keep and take home on Friday to continue coding and modifying all summer.
Not a foam loaner. Not a "demonstration kit" that goes back in the bin Friday. The microcontrollers, the sensors, the motors, the chassis — your kid wired it, debugged it, named it, and now it's theirs to keep, modify, and rebuild on the kitchen table all summer.
The Engineering Bundle your child gets from this Camp
Here is everything included in your tuition:
3-5 days of Engineering hands-on Project
1:5 instructor ratio with real engineers.
The ROBOT Kit (You Keep It)
Arduino/RPi, sensors, motors, chassis. Not a loaner.
Demo Videos of your child building Robots
So you never have to wonder what they did in camp.
2-month access to our Portal
With hundreds of projects to do later.
How is LearnToBot different from other STEM and robotics camps?
Unlike typical camps that dismantle plastic toys at pickup, LearnToBot combines real engineering hardware, a strict 8:1 student-to-coach ratio, and authentic coding so every child gains genuine engineering confidence.

What are LearnToBot's cancellation, refund, and transfer policies?
We offer 100% risk-free flexibility: full refunds are available with advance notice, and families can transfer camp weeks or locations at any time with zero transfer fees.
Day 1 Guarantee
Non-summer camps do not offer an advance 100% cancellation refund. They include our Day 1 Guarantee: attend the first day, and if your child does not enjoy it, we will provide a 100% refund when the equipment is returned. Full policy
Free Transfers & Rescheduling
Camp rescheduling is free when arranged at least 14 days before the camp starts, subject to available places. Full policy
8:1 Student-to-Coach Ratio
Our camps sell out fast because we cap class sizes small with an 8:1 ratio. Booking early guarantees your child gets dedicated attention from actual engineers.

What are the extended care hours, snack, and lunch guidelines?
Extended care is available from 8:30 AM to 5:30 PM for $10/day per child; campers should bring their own nut-free lunch, water bottle, and snacks for scheduled daily nutrition breaks.
8:30 AM – 5:30 PM Care
Working late or navigating morning rush hour? Drop off as early as 8:30 AM and pick up as late as 5:30 PM for only $10/day per child.
- ✓ Supervised engineering free-build stations
- ✓ Board games, puzzle logic, and quiet reading
- ✓ Add anytime before or during your camp week
Snack & Lunch Guidelines
Due to dietary diversity and severe allergy protection, LearnToBot operates 100% nut-free classrooms. Full-day campers bring a packed lunch, and all campers should bring two healthy snacks.
- ✓ Mid-morning & mid-afternoon supervised snack breaks
- ✓ Please send a refillable water bottle daily
- ✓ No peanuts, tree nuts, or loose candy permitted
Simple Extended Care Request:Once your camp spot is confirmed, reply to your confirmation email or message our camp director to add extended care days.
