Roblox Studio for Kids & Teens
Learn real coding by building and publishing an actual playable Roblox game.
Roblox Studio turns coding practice into something kids already love: building a game they can actually play and share. Our full path runs 64 live, 1-on-1 lessons — from first building tools in Studio all the way to a fully monetized, multiplayer game with save data, smart enemy AI, and a published commercial launch — organized into 8 progressive phases, each ending in a hands-on project. Families can also start with a smaller package (4, 8, 16, or 32 lessons) and continue the path at their own pace.

Is Roblox Studio right for your child?
Kids who already enjoy playing Roblox and want to learn how games are actually built and coded, not just played.

Does my child need a Roblox account?
Yes, a free Roblox account is needed to use Roblox Studio — we'll guide you through setup if needed.
Is this just playing Roblox, or real coding?
It's real coding. Kids learn and write actual Luau scripts — from basic variables all the way to OOP, DataStoreService, and AI pathfinding — to control what happens in their game. It isn't limited to pre-built templates.
Will my child be able to publish their game?
Yes — the course is project-based and builds toward a playable, publishable game at the end of every phase, culminating in a full commercial-style game launch on Roblox.
Does my child have to complete all 64 lessons?
No. You can book any package size (4, 8, 16, 32, or the full 64) and continue at your own pace — the 64-lesson path is the complete journey from Studio basics to a monetized, multiplayer game, but plenty of students stop earlier once they've met their goals.
My child already scripts in Roblox — can they skip ahead?
Yes. The trial lesson doubles as a level check, and the teacher can start your child at the right phase — whether that's basic scripting, multiplayer systems, or advanced OOP and AI — instead of from Lesson 1.
Is the trial lesson for Roblox Studio free?
Yes — 100% free, no credit card required, and no obligation to continue afterward.
