The Robo Hub — Local services in Cambridge

My 8 year old girl LOVED her experience at The Robo Hub over winter break (and she has tried out many, many camps). The instructors were knowledgeable and FUN, the space was filled with dynamic, accessible technology (3D Printers, Robots, Virtual Reality, etc.), and the open floor plan and "maker space" environment invites children to innovate, explore, and see themselves as scientists/technologists.

One of my aims as a parent is to expose my daughter to all sorts avenues for future impact, and I am especially trying to keep her aperture open to the STEM fields, since so many girls still stray away too soon - and our country & world need all the scientists! The "challenges" offered made my daughter realize what she is able to accomplish and to feel the pride of working through problems. I believe The Robo Hub is a perfect partner to parents and schools in fostering curiosity and...

The Robo Hub is a brilliant STEM contribution to the local community, the perfect, comfortable place for kids to move from room to room, learning about Lego robotics, 3 D printing, coding and circuits, and participating in fun projects to connect science and art. My granddaughter joined the February vacation program. She came into the bright, open space, was greeted warmly by Rick and Matt, the Robo Hub teachers, and quickly embraced everything offered to her.

She loved the wonderful teachers and their patient, careful, friendly approach to answering her questions and showing her the possibilities of Lego robotics. Thank you, Robo Hub! We will return for her birthday party and for your...

We love The Robo Hub so much: it's been great for both of our kids, one of whom leans to organized athletics but really enjoyed having a STEM camp to balance her summer activities, and the other who felt far less at home in a typical camp with structured sports, games, etc. but has flourished in the chill but deep focus atmosphere of Robo Hub two summers in a row and ran to get ready each morning. Can't say enough things about the patient, smart, and calm staff: special shout-out to Morgan who remembered our daughters by name a year later and made them feel like they belong. We've even done a birthday party there too for first/second graders which was a big hit! Overall, one of our favorite gems of raising kids...
