Easter Tech Camp
Unlock your child’s creative potential this spring with our Online Easter Tech Camp. Over 5 days, children aged 7-12 will journey from basic coding to building physical interactive devices. Combining BBC Micro:bit with Scratch programming, we turn engineering concepts into a series of fun, Easter-themed projects that bring digital code into the physical world.
Requirements: A computer with USB ports, and internet access. Installed Scratch and MakeCode software. Students receive Micro:bit kits (motors, wires, battery blocks, custom 3D-printed parts, and LEDs) via two deliveries: a preliminary self-study set and the primary holiday kit.
Sets are included in the initial price.

Monday
Children start their journey by creating a digital Animated Easter Card. They’ll learn how to hide secret messages that only appear when the card is tilted! Using simple logic, they’ll program “Smiley Face” reactions and start tracking scores with variables. We wrap up by building a fun Scratch game where the Micro:bit becomes a handheld controller.
Tuesday
Today is all about “Smart Home” tech. Your child will build a Bunny Night-Light that automatically glows when the room gets dark! We’ll dive into electronics using colorful RGB lights and crocodile clips. By connecting these real-world gadgets to Scratch, children see how coding can control the physical objects in their own bedroom.
Wednesday
Let’s get moving! We introduce motors to bring an Easter Bunny to life with wiggling ears and blinking eyes. Children explore how “randomness” makes robots feel more human. In the afternoon, they’ll code a Dancing Bunny in Scratch, using the Micro:bit buttons to choreograph a festive dance routine. It’s a perfect mix of engineering and creative art.
Thursday
Things get noisy and active! Students use motion sensors to create “Boing” jumping sounds. We then experiment with Conductive Dough, turning ordinary playdough into a touch-sensitive bunny that reacts to a nose poke! Finally, we create a “Bunny Hop Fitness” tracker that uses a wearable Micro:bit to make a digital character jump when they do.
Friday
The grand finale is a high-tech hunt! Campers build a “Carrot Counter” and engineer a clever “Bunny Trap” with sirens and flashing lights. We’ll even turn the Micro:bit into a magnetic treasure hunter to find hidden eggs using its built-in compass. It’s a day of problem-solving that proves your child is now a confident and capable young tech creator.
