Spaceproof Your Robot: What Kids Can Learn From Mars Rovers

Key Takeaways:

  • Mars rovers show kids why robots must adapt to tough environments
  • Robotics classes at OhmsKids Singapore build engineering creativity
  • Coding projects turn ideas into real-world problem-solving
  • Teamwork makes robotics learning fun and future-ready

When NASA designs a Mars rover, every detail matters. These robots must survive dust storms, freezing nights, and tricky terrain—all while exploring a planet millions of miles away. At OhmsKids Singapore, we use these incredible machines as inspiration to show children how robotics and coding prepare them for real-world challenges.

In our robotics classes for kids, students build and program their own robots using LEGO kits and coding platforms like Scratch. Much like Mars rovers, these projects teach kids that robots need problem-solving, adaptability, and creativity to succeed. By exploring how sensors, motors, and coding logic work together, children start to think like engineers while having fun.

Our approach also emphasizes collaboration. Just as scientists and engineers work in teams to launch rovers, kids in OhmsKids Singapore classes learn teamwork and communication as they build and test their robots together. These are the same skills that will help them in school—and beyond.
