Camps

In this high-energy camp, children become STEM game designers who blend hands-on crafting with beginner-friendly technology to build their own interactive board game. They'll safely explore simple circuits—using coin cell batteries, LEDs, and conductive tape—to light up a finish line or treasure.

Campers will also experiment with basic mechanics, adding cardboard gears, levers, or ramps for surprising physical interactions. Through the engineering cycle of Imagine → Plan → Build → Test → Improve, they’ll brainstorm a theme, engineer a playable board, craft game pieces, and proudly play-test their creation with peers.

Each camper takes home their unique, tech-enhanced game, along with newfound skills in creative confidence, introductory electrical engineering, basic mechanics, and problem-solving. Perfect for curious kids who love to build, tinker, and see how things work!

Ignite your creativity and engineering spirit in this hands-on camp where you become the designer and maker of your own custom fidget toys!

In this exciting camp, young designers will bring their favorite blocky characters and tools from the screen into their hands—from iconic characters like Steve and Alex to essential tools like the diamond pickaxe or creeper mobs. Using 3D modeling software, campers will learn to design, customize, and prepare their own Minecraft®-inspired creations for 3D printing. By the end of camp, each participant will take home their own unique 3D-printed figurine—a perfect blend of gaming passion and hands-on making.

Perfect for creative gamers ages 8-12 who are ready to level up from playing to designing.

Give your child a spark of creativity this season! In our hands-on camp designed just for young learners, your child will step into the world of STEM by creating their own light-up paper circuit projects. They’ll playfully discover how circuits work—why lights turn on, how electricity travels, and what brings their designs to life—through fun, guided activities.

Perfect for curious minds that love to ask “How does that work?”, this workshop blends art, play, and early engineering in a safe and encouraging environment. Enroll now and let your child shine as a young inventor!

This camp introduces campers to computational thinking through Python, one of the world’s most powerful and beginner-friendly programming languages. Through guided challenges and creative projects, campers learn to think like problem-solvers—not just coders.

Campers explore how computers follow instructions, break complex problems into logical steps, and use code to control actions and outcomes. They gain hands-on experience with Python basics, writing clean code, debugging errors, and building games, simulations, and mini tools.

By the end of the week, campers complete multiple projects, gain confidence in coding and problem-solving, and build a strong foundation for future learning in programming, robotics, and AI. This camp focuses not only on Python skills, but on developing the mindset behind technology—helping campers become confident creators and future innovators.

Start with an idea, awaken it on the screen, and then bring it to life right in front of you. Digital storytelling meets fabrication in this camp, which taps into kids’ creativity across the entire STEAM spectrum. From sports to entertainment, apprentices will start each day with a new theme and follow their imaginations through a series of activities. They’ll use digital art skills and coding to create characters and stories in Scratch Jr., a visual programming language that gives kids their first taste of coding. From there, they’ll bring these characters into the real-world using principles of fabrication. Building mini games to designing graphics – it’s all about sparking ideas and using STEAM principles to tell stories. Come and find the exciting worlds that are waiting to be discovered in your imagination!

Art history meets game strategy in this camp. Steamoji Junior Apprentices (ages 5-7) will invent and build their own art-inspired mini-games, merging artistic skills with critical thinking to combine the gallery with the game world. Every day is a creative bonanza where their imaginations set the scene and game design brings the structure, resulting in a collection of fun games that they’ve plotted and crafted themselves. From pens and markers to sculpting and LED lights, Apprentices will use classic and contemporary design principles as a springboard for their own unique artwork. It’s a place where math and art meet up to make magic. So – who’s ready to play?!

Embark on a hands-on adventure with our Arduino Car with Bluetooth Control project! Learn the basics of Arduino programming and wiring as you build your very own car from the ground up. Then, take it to the next level by designing an app with MIT App Inventor, giving you smooth Bluetooth control of your new creation. This project brings together creativity, coding, and engineering for a fun, interactive way to explore real-world tech and innovation—perfect for aspiring young tech enthusiasts!

Please note: This camp is for kids ages 10 and up. The registration fee includes a take-home kit (retail value of $50).

Creative Coding Camp: Explore Scratch Jr. and Digital Storytelling
