    ABOUT CODEVERSE

    Codeverse is the world's first fully interactive coding school, camp, and educational tech platform that teaches kids to code. Our mission: Teach a billion kids to code.

    Codeverse is built with engaging and intuitive tools to make learning code approachable and fun, and most of all, rewarding. The self-guided curriculum is designed for learners as young as 6 and introduces all the foundations of computer programming while incorporating core subject areas including art, history, science, and math.

    The curriculum teaches kids how to code in a proprietary language known as KidScript, the world's first programming language designed from the ground up specifically for kids.

    CAMP STRUCTURE/CURRICULUM

    Imagine a futuristic wonderland designed just for kids. A world full of possibilities and adventure, where kids can be creative and explore, play, and tinker with cutting-edge technology. A place where today's kids invent tomorrow.

    IntroducingCodeverse, the best interactive coding camp for kids aged 6-13! This Summer, Codeverse is expanding beyond its flagship Chicago locations to offer two types of fantastic coding camps for tech-loving kids in cities all around the USA.  You have the opportunity to bring innovation and technology to your community!

    Coding FUNdamentals - Whether your child is new to coding or has been grabbing for the family iPad since they could toddle, this camp is perfect for beginners or experienced coders alike! Campers spend a week learning the fundamentals of coding, building their very own video games, creating 3D designs, and programming dozens of objects featured in the studio.

    Camps run Monday-Friday from 9:00am-3:00pm throughout the months of June, July, and August.

    Camps include complimentary early drop-off at 8:00am and late pick up at 4:00pm as well as healthy lunches and snacks, with flexibility in dietary restrictions.

    All camps are 1:8 (instructor:student) ratio and are taught by certified instructors, designers, and coders.

    The last day of camp will include an “Inventor's Showcase” where parents will be invited to see what their camper created during the week!
