Where coding meets movement!
Code in Motion brings active, playful STEM learning to afterschool programs with Unruly Splats. Classes combine block-based coding with movement, teamwork, and game creation. Students stay engaged, build STEM confidence, and have serious fun—all through hands-on, high-energy activities beyond the traditional classroom.
What Are Splats?
Splats are interactive floor buttons that students use to play active, standards-aligned games! With a simple Bluetooth connection to your device (laptop or ipad), they light up, track points, run timers, and trigger sounds. Students load or code activities in the app—and then the off-screen fun begins!
Why Unruly Splats?
