About This Camp

Code Ninjas offers comprehensive coding education programs designed to teach kids programming skills while building their own video games. As the world’s largest kids coding franchise, they provide three distinct programs: CREATE for ages 8-14 featuring a 9-level belt progression system from White to Black belt, JR for ages 5-7 with foundation learning that requires no reading skills, and specialized CAMPS for tech skills development during summer and holidays. All programs are guided by trained Code Senseis using proprietary IMPACT learning platform and popular coding tools like ScratchJr, MakeCode Arcade, and Unity. The learning takes place in secure, specialized areas called ‘dojos’ that accommodate up to 30 students at a time, with luxurious parent waiting areas. Students progress through hands-on activities including video game creation, robotics, Minecraft and Roblox programming, YouTube content creation, and computational thinking exercises. The programs focus on building rather than just playing games, developing both technical coding skills and important life skills like problem-solving, creativity, and leadership through engaging, age-appropriate curriculum.

Parent Considerations
