Too many times,  the parents were doing it the science project for them. We believe there is nothing better than having your child an opportunity to have fun this March Break and learn by themselves the basics of machines, electricity, gears, mechanics, motion, energy and many other science and physics principles - see them in practice. And best of all, they have to finish the projects all by themselves - working hands on, asking questions, solving problems, DIY, and benefit from our vast experience in hobby, science and robotics.  We teach them how to fish, we do not serve the fish on a plate !!
