About Roblox Coding Class
In this live weekly Roblox coding class for ages 8–13, fun comes first.
Each class follows a prepared, step-by-step BloxSchool lesson. Many of our lesson ideas come directly from things students have told us they’d love to learn—like creating the world’s most dangerous playground, making walking and talking NPCs, adding pets that follow players, or programming underwater swimming physics.
Students follow the week’s guide, copy and paste working Luau scripts, learn what the code is doing, and then customize the project with their own ideas.
Students who want to can also show what they’ve been creating. We love seeing students inspire one another, help newer coders, and make friends while building games together.
What Will My Child Make?
Every week features a new guided Roblox Studio project. Past class projects have included:
- 🌊 Underwater swimming physics
- 🎬 Cutscenes
- 👻 Jumpscares
- 🍦 Ice cream droppers
- 🎁 Group rewards
- 🏃 Character animations
- ⚡ Powerups
- 💰 Donation boards
- 🐾 Pets that follow the player
- 🤖 Walking and talking NPCs
- ☠️ The world’s most dangerous playground
Students complete the same core lesson together, but they’re encouraged to customize what they build. One student’s project might look completely different from another’s by the end of class.
No Coding Experience? That's Okay.
This class is designed so a student can join without any previous coding or Roblox Studio experience.
One of the first challenges for many new students isn’t actually coding—it’s simply learning where everything is inside Roblox Studio. That’s normal.
When someone gets stuck, we use screen sharing to troubleshoot together. After years of helping students build Roblox games, we’ve encountered a lot of the strange little things that can go wrong in Studio, and we have troubleshooting steps ready to help students get moving again.
Younger students may occasionally need a parent’s help with things like copying and pasting or starting a screen share.
How Our Classes Work
Classes are live, weekly, and limited to 11 students per section.
Students work through that week’s project with a BloxSchool instructor while being encouraged to ask questions, customize their game, and help one another.
More experienced students often become a resource for newer students. That isn’t an accident—we want this to feel like a group of young game creators building together, rather than kids silently following a video tutorial.
And because we start a new project each week, your child doesn’t have to start at Week 1.
When students are ready to move beyond copying and customizing scripts and begin typing and understanding more of their own Luau code, they can move into our Advanced Roblox Studio coding class.
What Your Child Needs
Your child will need a Windows PC or Mac with Roblox Studio installed. A mouse is recommended because it makes navigating Roblox Studio much easier.
Chromebooks and tablets will not work for this class.
How to Install Roblox Studio
- On the Windows PC or Mac your child will use for class, go to Roblox Create.
- Choose the option to begin creating/download Roblox Studio.
- Open the downloaded installer.
- Follow the installation instructions.
- Open Roblox Studio from the computer.
- Sign in and make sure Studio opens successfully before the first class.
Roblox changes its website from time to time, so I deliberately wouldn’t tell parents to look for a specific “big gray Start Creating button.” That instruction can become outdated while the simpler instructions above remain useful.
Why BloxSchool?
My interest in changing games started long before Roblox existed.
As a kid in the early 1990s, I played DOS games. I discovered that I could go into the directories of a Pets game and change things—making the pets look the way I wanted or making them grow faster.
That feeling of “Wait… I can change the game?” stuck with me.
Today, that’s what I want students to discover.
BloxSchool instructors are trained in the curriculum and teaching approach I’ve developed through years of helping kids make games. We aren’t trying to turn an eight-year-old’s first Roblox class into a computer-science lecture.
We get them creating first.
Understanding grows from there.
Frequently Asked Questions
Has the class already started? When should my child join?
Your child can join at any time! There is no Week 1 and no need to wait for a new session to begin. We complete a new guided Roblox Studio project each week, so beginners can jump in without being behind. Students have different experience levels, and our instructors help newer students get comfortable while experienced students can customize and expand the week’s project.
Where does the class meet?
Classes meet live online through Zoom. After enrolling, you’ll receive the Zoom information by email. Students can talk with the instructor, ask questions, share their screen when they need help, and show their projects if they’d like.
Does my child need to know how to code?
No. Complete beginners are welcome. Students start with working scripts, learn what the code does, and customize it to create their own version of the project.
Does my child need experience with Roblox Studio?
No. Learning how to navigate Roblox Studio is part of the process. It’s completely normal for new students to need help finding tools and getting comfortable with Studio.
Will my child actually learn coding if they’re copying and pasting scripts?
Yes. Working scripts let beginners quickly experience one of the most exciting parts of coding—making something happen in their game. We explain what the code does, experiment with it, change values, and customize it. When students are ready to start typing and working more independently with Luau, they can move into our Advanced Roblox Studio class.
What if my child gets stuck?
Getting stuck is a normal part of game development! Students can share their screen so the instructor can see what’s happening and troubleshoot with them. After years of helping students build Roblox games, we’ve developed troubleshooting steps for the common—and sometimes very strange—problems that can happen in Roblox Studio.
Can students show the games they’ve made?
Absolutely, if they want to. Students are encouraged to share their projects, discoveries, and ideas. Seeing what another student created can inspire the whole class.
How big is the class?
Each section is limited to 11 students. This keeps the group small enough for students to ask questions and get help while still giving them a community of other young game creators to learn and build with.
What ages is this class for?
This class is designed for ages 8–13.
What computer does my child need?
Students need a Windows PC or Mac capable of running Roblox Studio. A mouse is recommended because it makes building and navigating Studio much easier. Tablets and Chromebooks will not work with Roblox Studio.
What if I need help installing Roblox Studio?
We recommend installing Roblox Studio and opening it at least once before your child’s first class. Installation instructions are included on this page. Younger students may need a parent’s help with installation, copying and pasting, or starting a screen share.
Can I pause or cancel my weekly enrollment?
Yes. After enrolling, you’ll receive a secure Manage Subscription link. You can use it to manage your subscription, pause weekly billing, update your payment information, or cancel future renewals.
