Event: Kids: Coding with Byte Budz

When: Thursday, May 21, 2026, 4:00 PM – 5:00 PM (Registration opens May 14!)

Where: Princeton Public Library – Myra & Van Williams Spark Lab (65 Witherspoon St, Princeton, NJ)

Event link: Princeton Library Events

Who it’s for: Kids in Grades 1–3

Why we love it πŸ’› There is nothing more inspiring for a young maker than learning from an older peer! The Princeton Public Library is hosting a fantastic, beginner-friendly coding workshop specifically for early elementary students. What makes this event so special is that the interactive lessons and block-coding activities are led entirely by the teen coders of “Byte Budz.” We absolutely love youth mentorship events because seeing a high schooler master computer science gives younger kids the confidence to dive into tech themselves!

How this event aligns with iCode Princeton πŸŒˆβš™οΈ Visual block coding is the gateway to professional software development!

  • Algorithmic Logic: Block coding teaches kids how to think like a computer by putting commands in the exact right sequence. In our STEAM Junior Track, we utilize this exact same visual logic, allowing early readers to drag-and-drop mechanics to build their very first digital projects.

  • Transitioning to Syntax: Once a student understands the logic behind block coding, they are ready for the real thing. At iCode, we seamlessly transition our students from visual logic into text-based languages like Python and JavaScript, ensuring they build a rock-solid foundation for future STEM careers.

Join the fun, then keep the momentum going at iCode πŸŽ’πŸš€ Learn the basics at the Spark Lab, then bring that world-class ambition to iCode Princeton where we teach you how to build the digital future!
