What’s Coding Camp?

Codeverse is the world’s first fully interactive coding studio and technology platform. A camp that provides the tools and encouragement for kids to become young inventors. A place where kids learn the fundamentals of technology in a fun and collaborative environment alongside other kids.

Codeverse is the best coding summer camp to consider because its guides(instructors) will help teach kids how to code using KidScript – a proprietary language that enables children to build mobile games, projects, and apps, as well as program dozens of objects within the state-of-the-art studio. KidScript draws inspiration from and acts as a gateway to many other languages, including JavaScript, Ruby, Python and Visual Basic.

Guides (instructors) are a collective of K-12 certified teachers, improv comedians, seasoned designers, engineers, and game developers. This diverse mix of backgrounds, skill-sets, and experiences creates a dynamic, fun, and engaging learning environment. All of the above making it one of the best coding summer camps.

What Makes Codeverse the Best Coding Summer Camp in Houston?

The studio will have a ton of cutting-edge gadgets, including a 20ft TV wall and professional-grade lights and speakers, which can be controlled and programmed by kids using real code! Basically, the studio will be a futuristic, digital wonderland for kids. Every aspect  – from the furniture to the hardware – is designed to encourage play, inspire creativity, pique curiosity, and promote collaboration.

The Codeverse curriculum is designed for kids ages 6-13. It is self-guided and adaptive, meeting and challenging children at each individual skill level. As kids progress through the curriculum, they will learn all the core fundamentals universal to any programming language. 

Each day of camp is assigned a theme and is comprised of exciting and educational adventures, including:
