SVCC Kids Sunday
Mission Statement
Silicon Valley Code Camp Kids (SVCC.kids) is a one-day event that is a new addition to the famous Silicon Valley Code Camp (SVCC) event. It is designed for children from 5 to 18 years old. Our mission is to bring together the best and brightest of Silicon Valley tech community and the kids, the next generation best and brightest.


To Register a kid for the SVCC Kids Sunday, you need to follow these steps
- 1. Have a current adult (parent) SV Code Camp Account (Register if you do not have one already)
- 2. Create or login to an existing kid account (this should be the kid)
- 3. Registered kids must pay a fee to attend SVCC Kids Sunday (Adults do not pay, when registering, the credit card window will come on saving)
- 4. Once Registered, Choose The Kid Sessions (Mark Them On The Program/Sessions/Kids Sessions) the kid will attend (These must be marked while being logged in as the kid)
Parents or guardians need to stay with or nearby and maintain responsibility of kids at all times. Silicon Valley Code Camp cannot take responsibility or supervision of the kids.
This year, we are limiting the number of kids to under 200 to make sure all kids have room to learn.
Here is a 5 minute YouTube video that goes into details on how to register your kids.
