About Mind Spark Point
Mind Spark Point is a KHDA-approved learning centre in Dubai Internet City that teaches children tech and thinking skills in small groups. Its course list covers coding with Scratch, Python, robotics with LEGO SPIKE Prime, 3D design, abacus and mental maths, arts, handwriting, and phonics-based reading and writing. The centre's line is "turn screen time into skill time": children build games, animations and robots rather than just watching screens. Classes run both in person, with a maximum of 6-8 children, and online, with 3-4 per group, and the centre also offers home sessions. The site mentions summer and winter holiday camps and workshops; ask the provider for current dates. Its robotics students train for competitions such as FIRST LEGO League (FLL) and the World Robot Olympiad (WRO), and the site lists results including Dubai champions in FLL and a first place in the WRO UAE category. The centre is in Office 705B, Tower B, Business Central Towers, Dubai Internet City, near Dubai Internet City Metro Station. It is rated 4.9 on Google from 18 reviews.
The activity
Coding, explained
Coding for children is about learning to give a computer clear, step-by-step instructions. Younger beginners usually start with visual, block-based tools such as Scratch, snapping commands together to make characters move, build simple games and tell animated stories. Older children move on to typed languages such as Python, working with variables, loops and logic to build their own programs. Along the way kids practise breaking a big problem into small steps, testing an idea, spotting what went wrong and fixing it. Many children start with block coding at around six or seven, once they are reading, and move to typed code as they get older and more confident.
Who it's for
Children aged 6 to 14, according to the centre's homepage and its robotics, coding and abacus pages (the homepage About section also mentions up to 16; ask the provider about older students). Starting ages vary by course: Scratch coding, abacus, arts and reading and writing from 6; the robotics page says ages 6-14 (the courses list says 10+, so ask which level fits); Python and 3D design are listed from 10 on the courses page; handwriting for ages 6-13. The robotics page says no previous robotics or coding experience is needed. Coding is split into three age levels: 6-8, 9-11 and 12-14. Ask the provider which level suits your child.
What to expect
Classes are small: offline groups have a maximum of 6-8 children and online groups 3-4. The robotics page says beginners start with the fundamentals, and all robotics kits, components, laptops and learning materials are provided at the centre, so children do not need to bring anything. For robotics, the centre says parents get progress updates through a parent communication portal and there are parent-teacher meetings each term. The site has a free trial booking form, and one parent's testimonial describes a free two-hour robotics workshop with a certificate. Ask the provider what a first session involves for your child's course.
