Session 1 – Design Thinking & Coding

设计思维与编程营

Can you build a sturdy house that can withstand the big wolf? Imagine your dream roller coaster. What special features does it have? What materials can you use to create it?

Session 1 Camp Highlights

From June 16-July 3, 2025, CAIS Firedragon Preschool Summer Camp will feature a session focused on Design Thinking & Coding. Children will be inspired, delighted, and challenged as they use everyday materials and STEM concepts to design and build solutions to problems faced by characters in their favorite storybooks. Here are the learning experiences children will gain, which help expand their Chinese oral language skills, problem-solving abilities, and creative thinking:

  • Listening to storybooks that inspire STEM exploration and learning
  • Exploring materials in a makerspace, using tools to create innovative projects, and improving their ideas
  • Hands-on learning and field experiences to study real-world problems in daily life
  • Sensory material exploration and 2-to-3-step design challenges tailored for 2-year-olds
  • Engineering design challenges for 3- to 5-year-olds, enabling them to create simple prototypes to solve problems, gather feedback, and expand their understanding of STEM concepts through thoughtful questioning
  • Learning to program with Cubetto—a friendly, screen-free wooden robot powered by a tactile programming language

This summer camp session will provide children with a creative and joyful learning environment!
