How to keep kids productively occupied during COVID-19 lockdown. As the world copes with the COVID-19 pandemic, we have compiled a list of online resources and recommendations to help keep your children engaged.
Isn’t it time our teens and children learn how to code? Code is everywhere. It’s powering our smart homes, our smart cities and our smartphones. According to a study by le Figaro, European teens are spending up to one-fifth of their time during the week on media!
Do you feel out of date? Want to be more in tune with what your kids are learning? Join us on Friday 7 February to discover and demystify computer code, the essence of the digital age. Bring your own PC or Mac if you want to participate in the hands on portion, and enjoy our interactive workshop, while networking with other parents.
