Six weeks, two tracks, one Game Day a week, and a demo day to finish. Here are the ideas our young builders worked on.
TinkerX is our six-week summer programme for young builders aged 8 to 16. It runs in two tracks. The General track meets Monday to Thursday. The Hackathon track adds a full build day every Friday.
Every Wednesday is Game Day. Less instruction, more games and networking, because learning should feel like play.
The heart of TinkerX is teamwork. Each group picks a problem, shapes an idea and pitches it on demo day. These are some of the ideas teams worked on:
Not bad for a summer holiday.
