What IS Robotics—and Is It Right for My Child?
If you've heard of VEX IQ or VEX V5 but still aren't quite sure what robotics is really about... this one's for you.
At Valkyrie Robotics, we believe robotics is more than just building cool machines—it’s about giving kids the tools to think like engineers, solve real problems, work as a team, and build confidence that carries into every area of life.
Whether your child is in 3rd grade or high school, there’s a VEX program tailored to their age and interests. And no, you don’t need a tech background to support them.
In our newest blog post, we break down:
- What robotics is (in plain English).
- What kids learn at each age level (VEX 123, GO, IQ, and V5).
- What soft AND technical skills do they gain?
- Why robotics stands out from other extracurriculars.
- What parents are noticing after just a few months
If your child is creative, curious, or just loves to tinker, robotics might be the perfect fit—and you don’t have to wait for school to offer it.
