Why Code Ninjas is the Best Summer Coding Class for Kids

Kids Activities

We recently had the opportunity to attend a Code Ninjas® camp. I will admit that initially, I wasn’t sure if my daughter would like it. Considering she had just completed her e-learning, I wasn’t sure if she would enjoy a computer coding class. I quickly found out that I was wrong. After the first day, she walked out of the class smiling and begging to come back a second day.  She couldn’t stop talking about how much fun she had. It was nice to see her enjoying something educational. If you are looking for a summer camp that will boost skills like problem-solving and critical thinking, Code Ninjas is for you! This is a sponsored post on behalf of The Motherhood. All opinions are mine. 

Code Ninjas

Everything you need to know about Code Ninjas Camps 

Code Ninjas has a variety of coding programs for kids ages 5-14. Right now they are offering in-person and virtual camps and classes for kids. My daughter learned how to build her own video games, built a circuit board, and played with a flying drone. 

What is Code Ninjas? 

Code Ninjas has a variety of fun coding programs for every kid and every schedule, including their drop-in CREATE program with a martial arts-inspired colored belt system, their completely visual and hands-on JR program for younger learners, camps in a variety of engaging topics like robotics and game building, At-Home Coding for creative and productive screen time, and more!

Learn how Code Ninjas got started

Why should kids learn how to code? 

Coding has been called “the literacy of the 21st century”. Just like math, science, and literature, coding is a key aspect of understanding our technologically-advanced world. There’s a huge need for a generation that not only understands technology but how it works.

If you need more reason to enroll your child, check out these fascinating Computer science stats from Code.org:

  • 90% of parents say they want their child to study computer science.
  • Computing jobs account for over  16%  of job openings  –  more than any other occupation – and pay $22,000 more per year on average.
  • 60% of new STEM jobs are in computer science.
  • Computer science majors earn 40% more than the college average.

What safety measures are they taking in response to COVID-19? 

This was my first question when deciding whether or not to enroll my daughter in the in-person camp. They do offer virtual camps if you are more comfortable with doing them at home. 

Cleanliness

  • Increased frequency of professional cleaning
  • Increased frequency of in-house cleaning by employees, especially devices tables, door handles, bathrooms, and other frequently used surfaces, cComputer, monitor, mouse, and workspace cleaned between every student session
  • No food or drink permitted in the lobby or dojo (coffee bar temporarily closed)

Social Distancing

  • Increased distance between individual student workstations in the dojo
  • Careful monitoring and enforcement of no-contact interactions
  • Reduced student capacity (only 5 students in the dojo)

Personal Health & Hygiene

  • Face masks mandatory for staff and students (students need to bring their own mask)
  • Increased enforcement of handwashing and sick policies including mandatory temperature self-checks by staff

 

Code Ninjas

My daughter wore her mask the entire time and didn’t complain. There were a few other kids in the class but they maintained their distance. The classroom is big and they only allow 5 kids at a time.

Code Ninjas Virtual Camp

While one of her instructors was in person, she also learned from her Code Senseis™ virtually.

How much does Code Ninjas cost? 

Camp pricing varies by location, please contact your nearest center for details. Choose from week-long, full & half-day, and virtual options

Code Ninjas is also offering a special 10% discount off all camps for a limited time.

Happy New Year! This year was tough but we are so Happy New Year! This year was tough but we are so thankful for the extra time we spent together as a family. 2020 taught me a lot about myself and what kind of life I want to live right now and once the pandemic is over.  Last year we hosted a party on NYE and I’m sure we opened a portal to this chaos.  This year is much different. Tonight we will most likely be in bed by 10 pm and I am okay with that! We are currently in mismatched jammies at 5 pm. 😜  Cheers to a new year and whatever that will look like! I’m not picking a new word nor am I doing resolutions for the first time in years. I have no expectations but keeping hope alive that things will get better and we can gather and hug once again soon.  Praying for those who are hurting and struggling right now. Things will get better... they simply have to! Let’s go, 2021.
