In recent times, children have developed an increasing interest and affiliation to learning coding as a subject. It's time to lead them on the right path and help them explore the horizon of knowledge and learning. There is a wide variety of programming languages for children to choose from when they start their learning journey. These languages differ in their complexity. Complex programming languages can make it difficult for kids to grasp. So, we recommend Python for budding coders. It is easy to learn and apply. One of the fast-growing areas in Computer Science is Web-development, Machine Learning, and Artificial Intelligence. Python is the prime choice for these technologies.

 Python is a definite choice for children for the following reasons:

• The syntax of Python is direct and easily readable.
• Writing codes in Python is made easy. The keywords used in Python have similarities with Mathematics and English.
• Python debugging is easy when compared to other programming languages.
• Python acts as a base foundation to learn other complex programming languages.
• Easy set-up.

Programming helps young minds develop Logical reasoning and problem-solving skills. With the growing demand for Python, it is a new age skill for kids to learn. It's the right time to start Python programming for kids and let them and explore coding. Book your child's free slot now with 98thPercentile's Coding Program for children.

Brooklyn Robot Foundry offers a variety of super fun, online, robot-building classes to 2-13 years old!  All classes maintain a very low student-to-teacher ratio, allowing for plenty of individualized instruction and socializing.  Materials for all classes will be shipped to students before the session begins.

• Robot Builders (6-8 & 9-12 year olds): This is the online version of the Robot Foundry’s popular after school classes, featuring a brand new robot project each week. The fall will be split into two 6-week terms, to accommodate students’ changing school schedules.  Children may sign up for either term, or ideally both, as each term will feature different projects. Weekdays at 3pm & 5pm ET.
• Robot Coders (9-13 year olds):  These classes combine the hands-on learning experience of robot-building with basic programming.  Students will use the Hummingbird app to code and bring their robot creations to life each week.   Due to the complexity of these projects, classes run 1.5 - 2 hours. 
• Robot Inventors (8-12 year olds): These classes are intended for children who enjoy the challenge of designing their own creations and trying to make them actually work!  Students will be introduced to various building techniques and parts, and given starter ideas.  They will then work on their own project each week in this trial and error-based class.
• Mini Makers (2-5yr olds + grown-up): Mini Makers classes introduce engineering fundamentals in a super engaging, age-appropriate manner. Children will get to build a robot each week (with help from their grown-ups), which they can continue to play with long after class is over.  There are four completely different 4-week sessions, which can be taken in any combination and order for an extended experience that works with children’s shifting schedules.
• STEAM RoboLab: Science (6-12 year olds): Students will learn more about the common core science curriculum for select grades with the help of what else, but robots!  This class will serve as a supplement to classroom science, allowing for the inquiry-based, hands-on lab experience that most school can not accomplish through remote or hybrid learning.  Students will be encouraged to experiment with ongoing projects and other challenges between the 12 weekly classes.
• STEAM RoboLab: Art (6-12 year olds):  Each week in this 12-week class, students will study a different artist or genre, and then work on their own project in which they can explore and experiment within each style themselves.  This is an immersive, hands-on, art class for students of all abilities.
• One Time Classes (6-10 years old):  These single, stand-alone classes can serve as a great introduction for students new to the Robot Foundry, as a supplement to existing students who just want to build more projects, or as a mini-session of your own scheduling when combined together.  The components for each robot you choose will be sent to your home, so your child will be all set to build with us on the day of the class.

Brooklyn Robot Foundry offers Robot Building and Robot Coding classes for children 2-13 years old! Choose from a variety of options based on child's age and session length, in which kids build a new robot every class! All classes feature live, interactive instruction with no more than 6 kids per group and we'll send you all of the robot parts you need.
Choose from an 8-class session for kids 6-10 years old, a super cool 4-week coding program for 9-13 year-olds, a 4-week parent-child session for 2-5 year-olds, individual classes, parties and so much more!

A missing tooth can happen at any age, and while it might seem like a minor issue, it's important to address it for both children and adults. This article explores the causes of missing teeth, the potential consequences, and the different treatment options available.

Why Do Teeth Go Missing?

There are several reasons why teeth might be missing:

In children:
Baby teeth: Losing baby teeth is a natural part of growing up. They typically start falling out around age 6 and are replaced by permanent teeth.
Missing permanent teeth: This can be due to genetics (a condition called agenesis), injury, or severe tooth decay.
In adults:
Gum disease: This is the leading cause of adult tooth loss. When not treated, gum disease weakens the bone and tissue supporting the teeth, eventually leading to their loss.
Dental decay: If cavities are left untreated, they can progress to the point where the tooth needs to be extracted.
Injury: Accidents can damage or knock out teeth.

Why Does a Missing Tooth Matter?

A missing tooth can cause more than just a gap in your smile. Here are some potential consequences:

Chewing problems: Missing teeth can make it difficult to chew food properly, leading to digestive issues.
Shifting teeth: The remaining teeth may shift to fill the gap, causing misalignment and bite problems.
Speech difficulties: Missing teeth, especially front teeth, can affect speech clarity.
Bone loss: When a tooth is missing, the jawbone that supported it begins to deteriorate. This can affect the appearance of your face and make it difficult to get dental implants later.
Self-esteem: Missing teeth can impact self-confidence, especially for children.

Taking Care of a Missing Tooth

If you or your child is missing a tooth, it's important to see a dentist as soon as possible. The dentist will examine the area and determine the best course of treatment. Here are some common options:

For children (missing permanent teeth):

Space maintainers: These are temporary appliances that hold the space for the permanent tooth to erupt.
Braces: Braces can help correct any shifting of teeth caused by a missing tooth.
Dental implants: In some cases, dental implants may be an option for older children (typically teenagers) with missing permanent teeth.

For adults:

Dental implants: Implants are considered the gold standard for replacing missing teeth. They are surgically inserted into the jawbone and act as anchors for a dental crown (artificial tooth). Implants are very durable and can last a lifetime with proper care.
Dental bridges: Bridges are anchored to the teeth on either side of the gap and support an artificial tooth in the missing space.
Dentures: Dentures are removable appliances that replace all or some of the teeth in an arch.

Preventing Missing Teeth

The best way to deal with missing teeth is to prevent them in the first place. Here are some tips:

Brushing and flossing twice a day: This removes plaque and bacteria that can lead to cavities and gum disease.
Regular dental checkups and cleanings: Your dentist can identify and treat problems early on before they lead to tooth loss.
Healthy diet: Eating a balanced diet with plenty of fruits, vegetables, and calcium helps keep teeth strong.
Mouthguards: If your child participates in sports, a mouthguard can help protect their teeth from injury.
By following these tips, you can help ensure a healthy smile for yourself and your child, with or without a full set of teeth. Remember, early intervention is key! If you notice a missing tooth, don't hesitate to schedule a dental appointment to discuss your options.
