Activity Summary
This engaging camp activity introduces kids to the Engineering Design Process—a series of steps engineers use to solve problems: define, brainstorm, design, build, test, and improve. Through hands-on STEM challenges, campers will work in teams to design, build, and program a variety of coding robots to complete specific tasks, such as navigating a maze.

Campers will learn coding in fun and creative ways using both screen-free tools and iPads. They’ll explore block-based programming platforms such as Scratch and Blockly to operate their robots, applying computer science concepts to real-world challenges. Through these activities, they’ll also discover how robots can enhance our daily lives and help protect the environment.

My almost 5 year old son and 3 year old daughter both had a fantastic time! I was shocked at how much information my son retained from camp. They were excited every day to attend and were sad when it was over! We will definitely be back next year!

Our 4-year-old had a wonderful week at Robot camp and can’t wait for Dinosaur and Play Dough camp next week! It’s a special place and clearly a lot of thought, care, and nurturing go into the children and their learning. Highly recommend.
