Are you ready to bring some holiday magic to life using the power of technology? Lab 401: Festive Coding Fun is the ultimate companion to our Delicious Art à la Carte course, designed for curious young coders aged 8 to 12. This course is all about using coding to create, experiment, and explore the festive spirit in a whole new way.
Throughout this course, we'll focus on coding projects that bring the festive season to life! From coding your own digital snowflakes to creating animated holiday lights and programming a game featuring festive treats, each session is packed with fun and discovery. You'll get hands-on experience with beginner-friendly coding platforms while learning how technology can be a creative tool to express your festive imagination.
Imagine coding an interactive gingerbread house, where you can change the lights and decorations, or programming a virtual snowstorm! These projects will help you explore coding logic, animation, and interactive storytelling—all while adding a little holiday sparkle.
By the end of Lab 401, you'll have a collection of digital festive creations that showcase your growing coding skills. You'll also understand how coding is an essential part of bringing ideas to life, especially during the holidays. So, grab your curiosity and get ready for some festive coding magic!

Frequently asked questions
FAQ 1 What happens if I miss a class?
If you feel sick, please stay home and apply a catch-up lesson at a later time. Or, if you feel well enough, please join your session online via our app or this website. Regrettably, we can only provide catch-up lessons within your enrolled term based on availability. Any unused credit cannot be carried over to the following term.
FAQ 2 What's your refund policy in a nutshell?
For the fairness of the other students, for our clever tutors who provide the lessons that you love, the studio cannot offer a refund if you change your mind. Our in-studio workshops are strictly made up of the limited number of students enrolled before the start of each school term and have the appropriate resources allocated to accommodate the optimal learning experience for all students in the course. To ensure the staff and supplies can be maintained for the course, payment for their use cannot be refunded so that the remaining students may continue the learning and development they paid for. In the event of Covid-19 restrictions, workshops will resume online. No refund can be issued if you decide not to participate in online sessions.
FAQ 3 What do I need to bring to class?
If you are joining the workshop in person, just bring your lovely self! If you are a private lesson student, feel free to bring your own device, please allow half to one lesson period for your tutor to have your device set up to the studio standard. If you are joining online, great! Ensure your device is fully charged, and check with your tutor beforehand about what supplies you may need to prepare.
FAQ 4 Which class should I join?
Choosing a class that suits your age group would be a great way to start. Your tutor will advise you if moving up or down a level may be more beneficial for your child. Check out the 'Find My Workshop' page for more details.
