Description

Support the First Lego League Challenge Team - Engineering Maniacs as this group of talented young engineers aged 10 to 14 compete in the Robotics Competitions for First Lego League.  We are raising money to fund the team for this and next year and your generous bid or donation will go a long way in helping the team purchase the equipment and needed supplies as well as fund their travel costs to any future competitions.  We are auctioning off this absolutely beautiful chess set.

Sourced from exclusive Italian Carrara quarries, Statuario marble is highly sought-after due to its extremely limited supply and is known for its striking, dark gray to black veins that create a dramatic contrast and individual “fingerprint” in each slab. This refined, elegant stone exudes timeless luxury.  The chess pieces are made of a special clay-like filament, understated and natural in poise and presence.  This piece is a one-of-a-kind chess set, designed with a Celtic and post-modern design; and undoubtedly will create a gorgeous focal center piece in your home that will stand out.  

Additional Information

SmartKids STEM & Robotics was created by a team of software, mechanical and computer security engineers in 2019 in Toronto, Ontario. The idea – was to combine and deliver STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) into every class to foster discussions on the evolving field of Robotics, Coding, AI as well as Mechanical and Computer Engineering in an environment where students can develop an engineering framework of thinking to solve problems.

We at SmartKids STEM & Robotics consistently update our curriculum to meet the evolving needs of the industry, such as having added into our Robotics curriculum Artificial Intelligence (Open AI and Generative AI); to teach kids how to use stacked text-based AI prompts to create applications.  We further connect with Canadian industry leaders in the fields of engineering and robotics and reach out for feedback from veteran students, parents and Ontario-Certified teachers alike.

Our passion is teaching students STEM-based Robotics, Coding, AI (Artificial Intelligence), Science and Mathematics while bringing our unique teaching style that combines STEM-based lessons to equip kids with valuable engineering skills to help build our world.

Our mission:
- Inspire curiosity, confidence and love for learning through robotics, coding, STEM, and AI prompt-based coding for kids.
- Provide kids a comprehensive curriculum in robotics, coding, STEM, and AI prompt-based coding to build strong foundations for real-world problem solving.
- Foster collaboration, communication, problem-solving, and friendly competitive skills through group projects.
- Nurture creativity, innovation, and problem-solving through designing, building, programming robots, and fostering the responsible use of AI applications.
- Promote ethical responsibility in robotics, coding, AI technologies, and conscientious usage of AI in projects.
- Inspire within your child lifelong learning, encouraging the pursuit of further studies and careers in robotics, coding, STEM, and AI development.
