When he was still young, my child gets fascinated with mechanical and moving objects that every time we go out and spend family time at the mall we never miss stopping by at the toy store to buy robots of different kinds. He pretends the maker of all that toys we bought from before along with new ones and never missed a day playing and doing a make believe game with all of the toys, even if he is already in grade school he still has all. His interest of robots made him to love Science that when he was a grader he never missed any Science class or activity either inside or outside of his school and every end of the school year this subject gets the highest mark. When we saw this potential in our son, we enrolled him in a learning camp one summer, that provided children with exposure to areas they excel at but making it more fun and easy to learn, thus it lets the child appreciate more the field they like most. All throughout his stay in the camp, he was exposed to several science toys and different games involving different topics about Science and what captivated him was when they were shown different robots that moves. The robot kits, which the camp often provide as part of their activities, assembling robots were provided together with other educational toys such as legos to assemble and make a robot out of it with the help of what they learned during their informal play classes. All the children with their classmates and friends they were asked to make robots out of the legos provided and were requested to present them by the end of the camp to others so that they will also be encourage and start engage in such type of learning. My son during their culmination, showed us his funny yet amazingly assembled Japanese super hero which with all heart he showed it to all and explaining why he build such robot by the end of the summer camp.
