Daisies
How Robots Move
Badge 2 of Robotics
Open to Daisy Girl Scouts Grades K-1
Daisies will explore robots, coding, and flying in this exciting hands-on adventure! Daisies will learn how to think like a programmer by creating simple step-by-step instructions (algorithms) to guide robots. Experiment with different types of robots, see how they move, and work together to solve fun challenge. Explore a real aircraft and assemble and fly a foam glider to take home.
By the end of the program, Daisies will earn and receive the robotics badge 2 “How Robots Move” and take home a special Hiller Aviation Museum fun patch!
