Fun, screen-free coding adventures in your local park.
Park Code offers a part-time summer program where teenagers learn coding logic through hands-on, unplugged games and puzzles in local parks. Sessions run 2-3 afternoons per week, each 2 hours long, with groups of up to 10 teens. Activities like 'Human Robot' and 'Binary Bracelets' teach computational thinking using no devices—just physical movement and crafts. Priced at $100 per teen per week, it's an affordable alternative to screen-heavy tech camps. The facilitator guides discussions and teamwork, requiring only 5-15 hours weekly during summer. With low startup costs for materials and marketing, it's an ideal side hustle generating up to $1,000 weekly per group. Easy to replicate in multiple parks once proven.
