In partnership with PBS Ideastream Family and Community Learning, preschoolers can participate in a workshop to promote computational thinking. A meal will be provided.
The “Work It Out Wombats!” Design Process is a series of two workshops that engage families in active, hands-on learning experiences around the PBS KIDS program “Work It Out Wombats!”. The learning focus for this workshop series is computational thinking for preschoolers, a way of thinking that enables them to solve problems, express themselves, and accomplish tasks using the practices, processes, and ideas at the core of computer science.
