Inspiring the Next Generation of Innovators
At RaspiKidd, we’re passionate about empowering young minds to explore the exciting world of technology and STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math). We develop and run hands-on coding workshops that spark curiosity and creativity in young people aged 8 to 16. Our workshops go beyond the basics of coding; we create immersive experiences where participants not only learn to program but also build robots, wire circuits, and bring their ideas to life using components like LEDs and motors.
What sets RaspiKidd apart is our commitment to accessibility and affordability. We believe that every child should have the opportunity to engage with STEM, regardless of their background. That’s why we’re working to make our educational kits budget-friendly, keeping costs within a pocket-money range. For instance, rather than expensive robot kits, we encourage creativity by using everyday materials like cardboard or LEGO to build robot chassis. This not only keeps costs down but also teaches problem-solving and resourcefulness.
The Inspiration Behind RaspiKidd
RaspiKidd is deeply personal to me—it’s a tribute to my Grandpa, a true inspiration in my life. From a young age, he encouraged me to dream big and embrace challenges, whether it was learning how to use tools on a building site or rewiring a plug to prove I was paying attention. His belief in my potential and his unwavering support taught me that mistakes are not failures but stepping stones to success. At RaspiKidd, we embody that same philosophy: FAIL stands for “First Attempt In Learning.”
Join us at RaspiKidd, where we’re not just teaching skills—we’re nurturing dreamers, creators, and future leaders in STEM!
