★★★★★Iryna YafimavaToday, we celebrated our son's birthday with RobotThink, and the experience was exceptional. The team provided outstanding support in room setup, robot construction, interactive play, and assisting children with any challenges. All participating children thoroughly enjoyed engaging with the robots and had a truly remarkable experience. The party's success was beyond commendable. I wholeheartedly recommend RobotThink Chicago Western Suburbs for your future birthday celebrations.
★★★★★Rachel SmithMy sons, aged 11 and 8, participated in the Battle Tank Camp this summer and absolutely loved it. They were super excited to tell me about their designs at the end of each session. The instructors were friendly and engaging. Both boys have asked to sign up for another program through Robothink and we are looking forward to picking a new class. There's a big selection, sure to find something for any interest. Totally recommend!!!
★★★★★Melissa GravesWe had the privilege of having Julie and Anthony host a battle bots party for my son's seventh birthday at the Alive Center in Naperville. Julie made it easy to set up the party. When it started, she was very quick to learn all the kids' names. The way building the robots is set up allows kids to be successful whether building robots in their passion (like my son) or they are just a party guest. Then they could play with each other and modify their robots, which was great because they could play with each other the whole time instead of just come back together for cake. While this activity is definitely not something a three year old can do easily, they were able to accommodate my other son so he could play with the "big kids". Julie took pictures throughout (but asked permission first). She assisted with clean up beyond just the robots. All of our guests (kids and parents) loved it. I fully recommend this for your next party, scouting experience, or just a get together for people who love robots.
★★★★★Christene MackoJulie at RoboThink did an amazing job helping me plan, setup and host my daughter's 11th birthday party! She made it so easy and all the kids (and adults 😉) had a wonderful time building and racing their cars. I highly recommend using her for your next party or event.
★★★★★The Clemens FamilyWe loved this program for our 7-year-old son who has an “always on” thinking brain. We randomly met Julie Chiu who runs the program during a STEM event at COD where kids could play and tinker. Our son loved it so much we asked her to do a program at the Glen Ellyn Park District. The kids got to build mechanical robots and have them battle against each other. It’s like Lego camp on steroids. Can’t say enough. This is a great program for kids who like to build and have engineering brains.
