Recess Rec: My Coding Place + Giveaway
If your kid lights up when they figure out how something works, can spend hours tinkering, or has an imagination that never seems to run out of steam, you’re going to love My Coding Place. This locally owned, female-led studio in Austin is all about turning curiosity into creation. Through small-group classes in coding, robotics, chess, and digital arts, they help kids and teens build not only technical skills, but also problem-solving confidence that will serve them for life.
Why We Love It
My Coding Place makes tech approachable and exciting for every learner. Whether your child is just starting out with Scratch, ready to dive into Python, or wants to build a robot that really moves, their experienced instructors know how to make the process fun and rewarding. Lessons are live, interactive, and designed to encourage kids to ask questions, experiment, and think critically.
We also love that they keep class sizes small, so every student gets the attention they need. The environment is welcoming and collaborative, giving kids space to explore and share their ideas without pressure.
Programs to Explore
- Coding Classes for all ages, from beginners building their first game to older students learning advanced programming languages.
- Robotics that lets kids design, build, and code their own creations.
- Chess lessons to sharpen strategic thinking and focus.
- Digital Arts where creativity meets tech, giving kids new ways to tell their stories.
Whether your child dreams of designing their own video game, building a robot from scratch, or mastering the art of chess, My Coding Place offers the tools, guidance, and encouragement to make it happen. It’s a space where learning feels like play and creativity has no limits.
