Sandi Batik, co-organizer of the Austin WordPress Meetup, and veteran of several successful WordPress KidsCamps will lead this year\u2019s Campers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 2019 WCDFW KidsCamp is a hands-on, workshop-style class that offers kid-friendly lessons that will introduce your child to WordPress while working alongside other students. Our goal is to help kids learn or improve their real-world WordPress development and design skills. After the day\u2019s sessions are complete, your child will leave with their very own WordPress site, hosted by our KidsCamp Sponsor, BlueHost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ages:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We are accepting children from ages 7 to 13 to participate in a full-day workshop-style WordPress class. Spots are limited to only 20 students \u2014 not including their parental sponsors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Depending on the attendee&#8217;s existing WordPress skill sets, we are prepared to offer two (2) learning tracks for this year\u2019s KidCamp. The first track designed for those who are new to WordPress and a second track for our more advanced students.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<h3>Getting ready for your child&#8217;s WordPress project<\/h3>\n<p>Interested WordPress parents\/guardians will need to have a ticket for Saturday attendance purchased before signing up their junior creators.<\/p>\n<p>A parent\/guardian will be responsible for staying with their child during KidsCamp. Each child will need his or her own laptop to work on. A fun way to prepare your Camper for a productive day is to talk about what topics interest them and what they might want to call their blog or site.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>Tickets<\/h3>\n<p>KidsCamp tickets are on sale now.<\/p>\n<p>Each KidsCamp ticket provides your child with lunch, an afternoon snack, and full access to the day\u2019s lessons. Both the parent\/guardian and child need tickets. Purchase a Kids Camp only ticket for your child and General Admission or Saturday only ticket for the parent\/guardian who will be staying with the child.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Also, if you have an older child ready to learn some advanced topics, they are welcome to join us for the WCDFW full sessions and workshops with a General Admission ticket. WCDFW is family friendly.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>KidsCamp Training Team<\/h3>\n<p>Sandi Batik will lead this years KidsCamp, assisted by Annika Akinmusuru. Annika attended her first KidsCamp when she was 7 years old and her second when she was 9, and built her first customer site when she was 11. This year Annika is working with her dad on her first eCommerce project. She&#8217;s looking forward to sharing her love of WordPress with our Campers.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide\" style=\"grid-template-columns:32% auto\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1002\" src=\"https:\/\/2019.dfw.wordcamp.org\/files\/2019\/09\/Sandi.accelerate_large.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1583\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dfw.wordcamp.org\/2019\/files\/2019\/09\/Sandi.accelerate_large.png 1000w, https:\/\/dfw.wordcamp.org\/2019\/files\/2019\/09\/Sandi.accelerate_large-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/dfw.wordcamp.org\/2019\/files\/2019\/09\/Sandi.accelerate_large-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/dfw.wordcamp.org\/2019\/files\/2019\/09\/Sandi.accelerate_large-768x770.png 768w, https:\/\/dfw.wordcamp.org\/2019\/files\/2019\/09\/Sandi.accelerate_large-299x300.png 299w, https:\/\/dfw.wordcamp.org\/2019\/files\/2019\/09\/Sandi.accelerate_large-998x1000.png 998w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p>Sandi Batik is a WordPress trainer, eCommerce consultant, curricula developer, author, unapologetic geek, unrepentant capitalist, and lucky enough to do what she loves every day.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide has-media-on-the-right\" style=\"grid-template-columns:auto 32%\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/2019.dfw.wordcamp.org\/files\/2019\/08\/full-square-1-1024x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1470\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p>Annika Akinmusuru was born and raised in Austin, Texas, and is a student at the Ann Richards School.
