Virtual Day Camps at Code Galaxy are the perfect way to get started with coding or dive-in deep on a topic your child loves. Due to all that is happening in our world right now, we are offering online summer camps to help your child dive into the fun and exciting world of coding in the comfort of their home. They can create an Obby in Roblox, design their own world in Minecraft, learn to code, and even learn to create their own animations.
The possibilities are endless at Code Galaxy!
When it’s time for camp, your child can log on from your home computer at their scheduled time. Any computer will work to access the camp portal.
Our week-long summer camps are open from 8am-5:30pm, with programs lasting two hours each (8am-10am, 10:30am-12:30pm, 1:00-3:00pm, and 3:30-5:30pm). Students can join a class that fits the time that is best for them, and they will be done just in time for dinner!
We designed our online coding camps to be a safe alternative to our in-person summer camps, but we believe a mix of great educational resources and a live instructor help children thrive.
In trying times like these, it is a priority of ours to offer affordable computer coding camps to help ensure that your child develops life-long computer programming skills without breaking the bank.
Camps start at $75
Micah McKee
Micah McKee was born and raised in Austin, Texas. A few of her hobbies are painting, reading, and going on hikes with her dog. She has a background in web development and early childhood education. She enjoys being part of the Code Galaxy team, where she can share her passion for helping kids learn and grow through computer science.
Coding, also known as computer programming, is a term that defines a variety of skills used to create animations, mobile apps, games, and more! At Code Galaxy, we firmly believe that starting students off by learning the basics of coding will set them up for life-time success. Even if your child doesn’t end up with a career in computer programming, knowing the necessary skills will help your child understand virtually everything needed to succeed in the modern industry.
Scratch - Scratch is a computer programming language used to create interactive stories, animations, videos, and games. In our animation program, students will learn how to successfully use Scratch to create short animations that they can share with their family and friends.
Code Kingdoms - Code Kingdoms is another online tool used to help teach students how to code various online gaming servers such as Minecraft and Roblox. In our camp, we will help students learn how to use Code Kingdoms to code, design, and create their own incredible world for Roblox.
MIT App Inventor - MIT App Inventor is a program used to help students create mobile apps for smartphones and tablets. Just like Minecraft, the app inventor allows students to develop block-based app codes that will be sure to inspire their creativity and truly take ownership of their creations.
Python - Python is more of a higher-advanced programming language used to create applications at their core functionality. Our students will learn how to create fun games and complete rewarding challenges. Python helps students think logically about coding to advance their knowledge.
At Code Galaxy, we have designed our summer camps to suit students who are wanting to learn the basics of computer programming and app development. All courses offered are set at a beginner level for children who are at least eight years old, so there are no previous skills required. Call us today to learn more about which camp is right for your young coder!
We look for educators who have experience working with children, a love for enriching young minds, as well as those who have knowledge and experience in the domain of software development and computer science. Some of our instructors are former teachers who have attended a coding bootcamp, and others are CS majors who have worked at camps and as tutors and are excited and ready. All candidates are background checked and trained in working with children by Code Galaxy.

Classes are for 1 hour a day. Depending your pricing plan, you will come 1x or 2x per week. We are open Monday-Saturday. Classes are done using Zoom online conferencing. Classes are very similar to the format we use in our classrooms and will feel very much the same as our in person classes.
Not at all! At Code Galaxy we specialize in developing your child’s programming knowledge from the ground up. We have courses that provide information on basic computer literacy and then incrementally build up to more advanced concepts such as writing code in industry prevalent programming languages.
Our classes are designed to be taught online in small groups of 10 or less. Students will join the open zoom classroom at the time they have have chosen. Once in the room, the teacher will help them get set up for the day and send them out into a breakout room where they will work through tutorial exercises. These exercises are similar to what they would do in person, reformatted for online classes. Our online classes provide the exact same level of quality and have been designed to mimic our in person learning format.
