On September 18, 2024, the National Stadium’s NIS Gymnasium Hall in Surulere, Lagos, buzzed with excitement as young minds gathered for Tech It, an inspiring event hosted by The Creative Kids Zone (TCK Zone). This vibrant celebration of technology brought together students from diverse backgrounds—both private and public schools—united by a shared curiosity for innovation and learning.
At Code Funhouse, our mission to make coding accessible and fun for kids aligns perfectly with the spirit of Tech It. Naturally, we were thrilled to be part of the event, showcasing how creativity and technology can open doors to endless possibilities.
Our Exhibition: A Fun-Packed Learning Experience
Our booth at Tech It was a hive of activity, drawing students eager to experience the magic of coding firsthand. From the moment attendees stepped into our space, we offered an interactive and engaging glimpse into the world of coding.
Hands-On Activities:
Students got the chance to try out coding challenges tailored to their age group and experience level. Whether it was crafting a mini-game in Python or designing colorful animations, every activity was designed to be both educational and fun.
Interactive Demos:
We demonstrated how coding isn't just about lines of text but a powerful tool for creating real-world solutions. Through these demos, students saw how simple commands could bring characters to life on their screens or solve practical problems.
Meet Our Experts
Our team was on hand to answer questions, offer guidance, and share their own coding journeys. For many students, this one-on-one interaction ignited a spark of curiosity, showing them that coding is something they can excel at, no matter their background.
Why Events Like This Matter
The beauty of Tech It lies in its inclusivity. By bringing together students from various schools across Lagos, it created an environment where young learners could explore, experiment, and envision a future in technology. For us at Code Funhouse, it was a privilege to contribute to this mission.
Through our exhibition, we aimed to demystify coding, breaking it down into something exciting and accessible. We wanted students to leave our booth with more than just new knowledge—they left with inspiration and the confidence to start their coding journey.
The Highlights
- Watching a group of students collaborate to solve coding puzzles and celebrate their success.
- Hearing teachers express gratitude for making coding seem less daunting and more approachable.
- Witnessing the delight on students' faces as their projects came to life on the screen.
Looking Ahead
As Tech It 2024 concluded, the enthusiasm from students and teachers reinforced our belief that the future is bright for tech education in Nigeria. At Code Funhouse, we are more committed than ever to making coding a fun and essential skill for the next generation.
We’re excited to continue empowering young learners through our programs and partnerships. Thank you to TCK Zone for organizing such a fantastic event and giving us the opportunity to inspire, learn, and grow alongside these brilliant young minds.
Together, we’re coding the future—one student at a time!
