Wonder League Robotics Competition

Coding is the new team sport for future teach leaders and innovators. Teams of kids, ages 6-8, 9-11 and 12-14, will design solutions for real-world science and technology challenges by programming Dash, Dot & our newest robot, Cue. They will develop problem-solving and creativity skills while building meaningful relationships with their peers and having fun! Plus, they will display their scientific thinking through authentic journaling.

This year’s competition is set to launch October 11, 2018. Register now. We will be sure to keep you in the loop as more details unfold.

The origins

The Wonder League Robotics Competition started in 2015 and has reached more than 43,000 kids in just a couple of years. This growing network of coding and robotics clubs uses our all-inclusive program to inspire an early love of coding, computer science, tangible learning and STEM education.

Through a series of story-based missions, the teams develop problem-solving, growth mindset, and creativity skills through learning to code. Last year, we invited international teams to participate, and since continue to see an ever-growing international presence making the Wonder League a true global competition.

Through the competition, our daughter and her teammates surfaced tremendous creative problem - solving ideas, inventiveness and persistence - critical lifelong skills. What started as a robotics project for a small group of girls grew into a remarkable story for learning and perseverance that excited our entire community.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who can compete?

Any kid, anywhere in the world, ages 6-14 as of 12/3/18, can participate. There are three age brackets: 6-8, 9-11, and 12-14. Kids must be the qualifying age for their bracket on the last day in 2018, when registration closes, but if they gain a year during the competition that’s OK. They won’t age out!

what makes a team?

A team is made up of a supervising adult coach, and one or more children. That’s right, kids can compete solo but will need a coach who is 18+ to help with the submission process! For multi-kid teams, each member must be in the same age bracket. Coaches may have multiple teams, just register each one individually when signups go live.
