SudoKids
Kids are the future
Vision: To create a kid centric Sudo Room in which kids can experience hacker/maker mind through paradigm-shifting toys, games, activities, classes and discussions with Sudo Room educators.
Mission: Provide a kid centric space during Sudo Room meetings, activities and open hours in which Sudoers and kids can both utilize the space and resources of Sudo Room.
Goals: Open a SudoKids/Facility in 2141 Broadway, the same building as Sudo Room's current room.
