Robotics camp teaches children to enjoy S.T.E.M. – KMVT – KMVT

TWIN FALLS, Idaho (KMVT/KSVT) - A robotics camp at the College of Southern Idaho is teaching children to program Lego robots.

High school students who compete in robotics taught kids 6 to 8 years old.

They said the kids may have struggled at the beginning, but it was fun watching them figure it out.

"It's just fun to see how their though process is and how they go about finding the solution to their problem," said Blake Miller, one of the instructors.

This camp is a two-day course where the kids learn to operate Milo the robot.

He has a sensor that interacts with a flower the kids built. He can move, make sounds and light up different colors.

The instructors said the kids, as young as 6, were learning STEM skills that will help them in their futures.

The group is also offering camps for older children and uses the fees to help pay for travel to their robotics competitions.
