The pace of this workshop will be geared to 10-14 year olds.  

Ever dreamed of creating your own video game? Join our fun workshop on June 10-13 and learn how to use Clickteam Fusion, a powerful 2D game engine. We’ll build different games together, exploring cool features like collisions, scoring, and enemies. You’ll personalize your game with unique art, win conditions, and gameplay, making it truly your own!

We’ll be working on a beginning level game, you should design several games at the beginning level before moving to an intermediate game.

Leave the workshop with a working game and the skills to keep creating. You can download the free version here: https://www.clickteam.com/clickteam-fusion-2-5.

Upcoming Craft Days at LabSpace

Join us for kid friendly crafts!

We’ll have everything ready to go, so you can just come and create with your children.  Each morning we’ll have a couple of crafts ready for you to come in and make your own.  We’ll gear projects for ages 4-9, but older and younger siblings are welcome.  Tuition is $5 per child with a max of $10 per family.  There is no charge for the adults in the family.

Our craft morning series is a wonderful opportunity for kids to explore their creativity in a fun and supportive environment. Please note that this is not a teacher-led activity. While we’ll provide samples, craft supplies, and a mentor to answer questions, parents will be responsible for guiding their children through the projects.

We can’t wait to see what amazing creations you and your children come up with!

LabSpace Mentors are a group of students that has been participating in STEM activities for quite a while.  They have a love for programming, robotics and other tech and want to share with others.  Our group ranges from middle school through high school.  If you’d like to join us, please contact [email protected] before registering for an event.

Upcoming Mentor Opportunities:

Visual Arts Day , March 8 10:00-3:00– this event is held to highlight student artwork in the public schools.  LabSpace will be participating and providing art materials for students to design a creation that mentors will scan and import as a sprite into Scratch.  We’ll then program the Sprite and import it into a big collaborative art project in Scratch that we’ll be projecting during the event.  This was a huge hit last year, but is time intensive for each piece of student art.  You will need to bring a water bottle and any snack/food you’d need during the event.  Shifts available are: 9:30-11:30, 11:30-1:30, 1:30-3:30.  We appreciate any time you can help.  Parents, if you’d like to help at this event, we’d love to have you too!

Robot Parade, April 11 and 12

Mentors make Robot Parade possible!   You know how to program and build robots.  You’ll get lots of experience troubleshooting all the things that can go wrong, you’ll help with ideas for floats, you can help with set up and clean up.  This is a super fun event that takes lots of help to make it possible.

  • Fridays, 5:30-7:00 March, 21, 28, and April 4 Junior Girl Scout Robot Lab- we need 2 or 3 mentors who can help lead Girl Scouts through the building and programming process. They will have 3 sessions (and extra time on April 11 if needed) to build and program a robot for the parade.  If you have Mindstorms experience, we’d love your help.  If you are a Girl Scout with Mindstorms experience, please consider this opportunity!
  • Friday, April 11 4:30-6:30 -mentoring for those needing help with their parade robots or floats.  Students will drop in as they can.  You will be helping to troubleshoot any problems they are having.  Also, during this time we’ll be setting up tables and getting things ready in the hall for parade the next day.
  • Saturday, April 12 9:00-3:30- From 9:00-10:00 we’ll be finishing the set up in the hallway.  The parade route will need to be taped.  10:00-11:30- testing robots.  Student robots must make it around the parade route twice with no issues before getting their flags.  11:30-12:00-LabSpace closed for lunch, 12:00-2:00 Robot parade, robot petting zoo, Helias Robotics exhibits.   2:00-3:00 – talk with students and help them celebrate their robots, social time.  3:00-3:30 – Clean up.

Upcoming STEM Club Grades 3-6 Year 2

This class is for those who have been in STEM Club Year 1 and are comfortable with basic programming using a drag and drop language. In this session, we’ll be experimenting with Micro:Bits and adding motors. Our big project will be creating a robot zoo to exhibit on April 12 during the Robot Parade Event. We’ll use the MicroBit to power robotic animals that are built from recyclables and everyday materials. Students will add motors and sensors using the MicroBit.  The animal should respond to its environment in some way.  For instance, a sound sensor could cause a cat’s tail to move back and forth when the sound level is high.   In addition, students will have the opportunity to build and program a robot for the robot parade using the Lego Mindstorms robots.

Please save Sat, April 12 for the Robot Parade Day.  The parade and Robot Zoo will start at 1:00, but, everyone will need to meet at LabSpace between 10:00 and 12:00 Saturday morning to test their creations.  LabSpace will close at 12 so everyone can have lunch. There will be no testing between 12:00-12:45.

Upcoming LightHouse Fieldtrips to LabSpace

  • K-1 LightHouse Fieldtrip - Private Event
     02/06/2025
     10:00 am CST - 12:00 pm CST
  • Grades 2-4 LightHouse Fieldtrip - Private Event
     02/27/2025
     10:00 am CST - 12:00 pm CST

We’re excited to have you visiting LabSpace!!  On your fieldtrip, we’ll divide into two groups and have 2 activities: we’ll be bringing Legos to life with motors, sensors and programming, sorry the Legos stay at LabSpace,  but we’ll also be  building a fun engineering project you can take home.  We’ll save a few minutes during your trip to explore some of the fun LabSpace activities.

We know that you may have siblings along with you.  We do have activities in the front area of LabSpace that they are welcome to explore.  If you feel they could participate with the group, you are welcome to register them as well.  I would say that an older 4 year old  could participate in the k/1 group with your hands-on help. In the Grades 2-4 group, older siblings would enjoy the activities as well.

Fieldtrips are starting before the mall is officially open.  Please park in the lot between the Car Wash and Ross.  Enter through the mall entrance nearest LabSpace.  All other entrances will be locked.  If no one is at the door to let you in, please call (573) 645-0800 and we’ll be right there. Until the mall officially opens at 11, we all have to be in LabSpace, so family members will have to stay in the space and can’t walk through the mall corridors until  11.

Payment: Tuition is $10 for each participating child.  If this is a financial difficulty, please email me at [email protected].  Please don’t let money be a reason you can’t attend.

Kindergarten-Grade 1:  Feb 6, 2025- 10:00-12:00

Grades 2 – 4: Feb 27, 2025 10:00-12:00

Looking forward to seeing you soon!

You’ll get to use one of our robots for the entire class, so you’ll be able to refine your robot week by week.  We’re looking forward to seeing what you create!
