WordCamp parents can now usher in the next generation of WordPress builders at our first WordCamp US KidsCamp! Parents attending WordCamp can bring their junior website creators along and enjoy a day of parent-child learning under the advisement of some of our WordPress Experts!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

These special kid-friendly lessons will introduce your child to the wonderful world of WordPress and help them learn or improve upon WordPress development, design, and use skills! After the day is complete, your child will leave with their very own WordPress.org site up and running! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We will have 2 learning tracks: one for children who are new to WordPress and one for organizers wanting to host their own events in the future. The event will also include hands-on STEAM education projects for the students to enjoy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interested WordPress parents or guardians will need to have a ticket for WordCamp US purchased before signing up their junior creators. Parents will be responsible for staying with their child during KidsCamp, but may switch guardians during the course of the day if you are both attending. Each child will need his or her own laptop to work on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each KidsCamp ticket provides your child with lunch, a morning snack, and full access to the day\u2019s lessons. We are accepting children from ages 6 to 13 to participate in these special lessons. Spots are limited to only 15 students (not including their parental sponsors).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
