Playful, non-screen coding and robotics activities for children aged 3–6, supporting kindergarten teachers in developing STEM curiosity, collaboration and empathy.
Our goals
CordiKids supports kindergarten teachers in introducing playful, non-screen coding and robotics activities that strengthen children’s STEM curiosity, collaboration and empathy.
Digital readiness without extra screen time
Children learn coding concepts through unplugged activities and non-screen robots.
STEM curiosity through play
Storytelling, games and robotics challenges make early STEM learning age-appropriate.
Empathy and teamwork
Coding tasks are designed to encourage helping, sharing, collaboration and emotional awareness.
Teacher empowerment and digital confidence
Kindergarten teachers gain digital skills through hands-on training, open-access materials, practical activity plans, short videos and the Microlearning Library, helping them integrate coding and robotics confidently into their classrooms.
