WebExpo Kids: First steps into the world of technology and coding

We live in a constantly evolving tech-driven world, where cultivating interest in it together with developing problem-solving skills and critical thinking at a young age is more important than ever. We are not talking about pointless screen time but about igniting a spark of curiosity to experiment with technology and fostering an innovative mindset.

That’s why every WebExpo Conference ticket includes FREE access for kids and a FREE parent ticket. This gives access to WebExpo Kids, the Parents’ Coffee Lounge and Partner Zone. It’s a win-win solution for all parties involved – you can go and get the most out of the action-packed WebExpo program, your child is in good hands of our team of professionals, learning new skills, and your partner can take a moment for themselves in the Parent Coffee Lounge or explore the Partner Zone in Lucerna Gallery.

No boring theory, pure learning by doing

WebExpo Kids workshops are traditionally led by our two enthusiastic lecturers Jakub Balada and Tomáš Kapler. Jakub is the co-founder of Apify, a teacher of agile methodologies at the University of Economics and the University of South Bohemia, and he also teaches computer science and robotics to primary school students. Tomáš is the innovator behind the CoroVent pulmonary ventilator project during the pandemic, and his current mission is to help individuals, companies, and educational institutions harness AI effectively.

Scratch programming is a perfect entry point into coding for kids of the age of 6 and older. With Jakub’s guidance, they will create animations and simple games using block programming.

Every kiddo loves playing with LEGO. LEGO BOOST & LEGO SPIKE aren’t just fun, they are also a way to awaken creativity and develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills using basic coding. Imagine your little inventor having a blast building a LEGO robot and even making it move with simple commands. The required age for this activity is 5 years and up.

3D printing workshop is a hit for kids aged 9 and up. Nevertheless, we know 3D printing is fascinating also for adults, so don’t be shy to pop in with your youngster and learn together how a 3D printer works. Tomáš will guide you through the whole process from creating a printable model to finally printing it.

AI creation factory workshop opens the door to the wonderland of generative AI tools for kids at the age of 8 and older. Together with Tomáš, they’ll learn how to use Midjourney and Ideogram to craft images, how to talk to ChatGPT and Copilot chatbots, and how to train a machine learning model using Teachable Machine.

WebExpo Kids isn’t just a place for your children to wait while you enjoy practical talks and network with like-minded professionals. It’s an engaging space where they’ll have fun while learning valuable skills that matter now and may shape their future. Take advantage of it and bring your whole family to WebExpo!
