About this camp

Engineering For Kids offers dynamic, hands-on summer camps designed to inspire children aged 4-14 in various STEM disciplines. Participants engage in the Engineering Design Process, learning to design, build, test, and refine their own creations. Activities incorporate popular tools like LEGO® bricks, robotics, and coding, fostering critical thinking, problem-solving, teamwork, and creativity. Junior Engineers (Pre-K-2nd grade) explore basic concepts through playful building, while Apprentice Engineers (3rd-5th grade) tackle structured projects in robotics and mechanical systems. Master Engineers (6th-8th grade) delve into advanced topics such as robotics design and electrical systems. The curriculum aims to connect real-world problems to engineering solutions, preparing students for future STEM opportunities.

What a typical day looks like
