Inspiring Young Makers

At BuggedOut404, we ignite curiosity and empower the next generation of innovators. Through our hands-on programs, students learn to design, build, and troubleshoot real‐world electronics projects. By organizing youth‐focused hackathons, preparing custom Arduino kits, and guiding learners step by step, we cultivate problem‐solvers who:

Build Confidence: Tackling open‐ended challenges helps kids (ages 10–18) develop resilience when prototypes fail and celebrate each breakthrough. Spark Creativity: From coding simple sensors to designing interactive gadgets, students explore endless possibilities in STEM. Develop Technical Skills: Our structured curriculum teaches essential electronics, programming, and circuit‐design concepts—preparing young makers for advanced coursework or future tech careers. Whether your child is curious about robotics, eager to explore coding, or keen to join a community of like‐minded peers, BuggedOut404 provides the resources and mentorship they need. Join us, and watch your student transform ideas into working prototypes—one code loop and circuit board at a time.

Mission causes

Our core services are displayed below. Each icon represents a key pillar of BuggedOut404’s commitment to quality STEM education:

Hackathon Experiences

Curated, age‐appropriate competitions where teams solve real problems under time constraints. Professional mentors guide participants, offering workshops on design thinking, teamwork, and presentation skills. Every hackathon delivers sponsored prizes, certificates, and opportunities to showcase projects at local tech fairs.

Custom Arduino Kits

Handpicked modules: microcontrollers, sensors, breadboards, and wiring—everything a young builder needs. Pre‐assembled “Starter Packs” for absolute beginners, plus “Advanced Packs” for intermediate coders. All kits include step‐by‐step manuals and online video tutorials that explain circuit assembly, coding logic, and troubleshooting tips.

Guided Learning Workshops

Small‐group and one‐on‐one sessions to teach Arduino fundamentals, C/C++ programming, and electronics theory. Projects range from blinking LEDs to smart home prototypes—each lesson reinforces core STEM principles. Experienced instructors ensure students progress at their own pace, with built‐in assessments to track growth.

Online STEM Courses (Coming Soon)

Self‐paced video modules on electronics basics, IoT fundamentals, and robotics for grades 6–12. Interactive quizzes, downloadable code snippets, and virtual “lab” simulations to practice without physical components. Affordable tiered subscriptions for individual learners, after‐school clubs, and school partnerships.
