4-week live online Python course where kids build Turtle graphics projects and learn the foundations of AI.
Python powers many of today’s AI tools, websites, and apps. In this 1-month bootcamp, kids learn the same language used by data scientists and engineers — but in a playful, visual way using the Turtle graphics library.
Each week, students join a live online class with a mentor teacher who guides them step-by-step through new concepts and creative projects. By the end, they’ll have built their own mini-games and drawings in Python and gained the confidence to keep going.
No prior coding experience is required — just basic typing and curiosity.
Each class introduces one or two core Python concepts and then immediately applies them to a fun Turtle project. Kids see their code come to life as colorful shapes, patterns, and mini-games.
Project: Draw your first signature and shapes.
Project: Build spiral art and geometric patterns.
Project: “Roll the dice” visualizer or traffic light simulator.
Project: Simple Turtle mini-game or animated scene to share with family.
Every student keeps their code and can continue in our full Coding Program after the bootcamp.
See long-term Coding Program →No. This bootcamp is beginner-friendly. We start with simple commands and build up to loops, logic, and functions.
We designed this for ages 8–15. Instructors adjust pacing and challenges based on each group.
Each live online session is 45 minutes. The bootcamp runs for 4 weeks, so your child attends 4 total classes.
The bootcamp is $99 for the full month (all 4 classes).
A Mac or Windows computer, a reliable internet connection, and basic typing skills. We’ll help with installing Python if needed.
Students can continue in our ongoing Coding Program to go deeper into Python, JavaScript, and beyond.
