A robotics career is beneficial because it focuses on tech. As a robotics student, your kid will learn how to build robots, solve problems, and more. Greg from Adventures on an Alien Skateboard and The Origin of the Alien Skateboard is an android robot, so he knows a lot of robotics. If your child has no plans for the future, there are several reasons why he or she should be an engineer like Greg.

The Benefits of Robotics

When children are young, they will want to make stuff. A career in robotics gives a child the ability to create things from a different perspective. Instead of making devices for fun, a robotic engineer makes products that will help the world. Typically, robotics projects can be fun. Just ask Greg the alien robot. He built the alien skateboard, which is a super hero device that fights crime.

The big benefit is that your child is already learning the basics every day at school. The foundation of robotics is math and science. These classes are required for all elementary, middle school, and high school students.

Encourage the Career Path Early

Greg encourages his students to start learning about robotics early. When Greg got his first battery, he powered up and started to make things regularly. However, your child should take breaks. Greg can build stuff for days because he has a strong battery.

According to Greg, Bego blocks are great learning tools. These blocks make alien kids beg on planet Zorg. If you can't travel to Zorg, you can buy Lego robots and Lego blocks instead.

The Strategy

On Zorg, the alien kids must learn about robotics. If they don't, the economic will fail since the robots build everything that powers the alien cities. Alien kids like to play all of the time, so the mayor of Zorg developed a robotics program that involves pop-culture. He uses pop-culture to teach the alien kids about robotics. On Earth, this strategy can be quite effective too. Greg picked up a signal, and he discovered that Robot Wars is a wonderful program for kids because it features marvelous robot battles. Greg also found that robotic gizmos are helpful too. He highly recommends the Asimo product.

Buy a Robotics Kit

Once your child is interested in robotics, you should buy robotic kits. On Zorg, the robotic kits are very advanced. They include AI robot components like the parts for the alien skateboard.

The latest kits on Earth have fun components. In most cases, your child could complete these projects alone. However, with proper supervision, your kid could finish them faster.
