Camps

Take a deeper dive into the world of gears with this dynamic and challenging week-long camp for budding engineers. You will design, fabricate, and assemble a variety of gears, exploring how they transmit power and motion, build your own fully functional mechanical clock, work in small teams to tackle fun engineering challenges and design custom gear-driven machines, discover how gears are used in real-world applications like vehicles, robotics, and clocks.

This camp is perfect for curious learners ready to think critically, problem-solve, and apply their creativity to real engineering concepts.

Little inventors, it’s time to explore the amazing world of motion and machines! In this fun and hands-on week long camp, you’ll: Create simple gears, build a working clock (with some help!) and learn how it ticks, play with mechanical toys and learn how gears bring them to life, use your imagination to design your own moving creations. With plenty of guided activities and fun storytelling, this camp introduces young learners to the basics of gears and how they work—all while having a blast!

Introducing our first Steamoji x CircuitMess STEM camp...

Meet Spencer - your new talkative buddy that lights up when it sees you, answers your questions and even has a joke ready when you want a laugh! 

Kids will learn everything they need to know to turn a pile of parts into their very own customized voice assistant that they'll take home at the end of the week:

• Learn building skills such as soldering and parts assembly
• Code your voice assistant using Python
• Find out about the “internet of things”
• Fabricate your own 3D printed parts to personalize your new pal
• Solve problems and share ideas with other makers 

Let’s Get Building!

Please note - this camp is for kids ages 10 and up. Camp price includes a take-home “Spencer” kit (retail value of $160).
