Proud father moment. My daughter won the Think Award at the robotics state championship! She put in so much effort to learn and build their autonomous code and had a lot of setbacks, but all her hard work and many hours finally paid off on the big stage. Her team did amazing for their first year!

May I ask how she learned about robotics? I'd love to show this to my daughter!

We have a robotics club setup at the elementary and middle schools. My son was on the original 2 teams (we've since grown to 6 teams). We compete in VEX IQ (plastic pieces, block/scratch programming) but there is also VEX V5RC (metal/python/c). We also participate in National Beta club.

Thanks!! We don't have one here! Gonna share with interested parents..maybe we create one!! Are there specific kits your clubs started with that you would recommend??

Some stuff here www.vexrobotics.com/catalogsearc... but looks hard to start? My daughter is a 3rd grader.

Our teams start in 4th grade (and have teams up to 8th grade). We also have high school teams using V5RC. The education kit or competition kit is where I would start to build the robot www.vexrobotics.com/iq-competiti...
