Free trial

Star Geeks Robotics calls itself a Robotics & AI Studio for young innovators, set in a space-themed room on Level 1 of WAFI Mall, opposite VOX Cinemas. Children build and program robots (mechanical design, electronics, coding and sensors), try AI projects, code their own games, and explore Mars and the International Space Station in augmented and virtual reality. The site lists course levels in Robotics I, II and III, Artificial Intelligence I and II, Game Design & Development I, II and III, Web Design I and II, and 3D Design I and II. It runs as a supervised drop-off: its December 2024 terms describe a smart playground with robotics kits, mentors and a soft play corner, with guided sessions included in the ticket. Beginners and advanced children are both welcome. The team also hosts robotics birthday parties, and has run holiday camps (most recently summer 2025). On the site, a mum praises patient staff, a dad says the team made accommodations for his neurodivergent son, and a local clinic thanks them for supporting its children with special needs.

The activity

Robotics, explained

Kids' robotics is building and programming machines that move. Children put together a kit, from simple snap-together models to motors, sensors and arms, then write short instructions, often by dragging coding blocks on a tablet, so the robot turns, lifts or lights up. When it doesn't work they find the mistake and try again, which is the real lesson: patience, logical steps, teamwork and a feel for how things are built. Younger children usually begin with chunky building sets and picture-based coding, then move to text code and more complex electronics as they grow. Many centres mix in coding games, 3D design and virtual reality alongside the robots.

Who it's for

Children aged 5 to 11, per the playground terms on the provider's site (dated December 2024; confirm current). Its summer 2025 camp split groups into Young Explorers (ages 4-6) and Junior Creators (ages 7-10). All levels welcome, from complete beginners to advanced. Parents must tell staff about allergies, medical conditions or special needs before drop-off; one parent testimonial on the site describes the team making accommodations for his neurodivergent son, and a local clinic thanks them for supporting its children with special needs.

What to expect

It is a drop-off format: you leave your child, they build, code and play, and you collect them within opening hours. According to the site's terms (December 2024), guided robotics and computer science sessions are part of the ticket, alongside assembling and coding robotics kits, AR coding and short VR science sessions, with play time in the soft play area. Non-slip socks are mandatory and not included in the ticket, and children should bring their own water bottle; no food is allowed in the play area. Pre-booking workshops is recommended. The site's October 2025 page offers a free trial booked on WhatsApp; ask the provider whether it still runs.
