“Dancing … in the Spring” Get inspired … and Create!

Everything is dancing around us! Spring arrived along with flowers, the wind and the trees too, flying birds, insects, the sea, people and even robots!

Even staying at home we can Create!

Use your imagination and make your own definition of spring, create your robots to dance like insects, animals, humans or anything you can think of.

You can design the robots and dress them up and with authentic music, so you get them dance to the rhythms of spring! And most important with the robotic kid of any technology you prefer …

Don’t forget to record your robots’ wild dance and send it to us with the #SpringChallenge  #StayHome #BeCreative hashtags.

You may get inspired from this video.

The contest is aimed to Kindergarten, Elementary, Junior and Senior High School students.

Hurry up and get organized into teams of 2-4 persons! As soon as you do this, start collaborating through a meeting tool (Viber etc.) that you feel more familiar with. Parents will have the role of mentor.

As a team, you will discuss with other members and plan together what you wish to create.

The member of the team who has the kit at home, will undertake the construction of the robot with the assistance of the other team members.

Of course, don’t forget the band’s musician or band decorator to “dress” it up with notes and clothes!

Aim

The purpose is to send a positive message to scare away the coronavirus! We will upload the best videos to the international WRO community Facebook page so that all children of the world can receive it and escape with their minds! Don’t waste any more time, get organized and make your robot ready to go with any technology you wish or have available:

  • Design it!
  • Build it!
  • Program it!
  • Make it dance to your authentic music!

The best videos, for which we’re sure you’ll use your vivid imagination to come up with, will be uploaded to the WRO Hellas YouTube channel and Facebook page!
