About this camp

STEM4Kids Summer Camps offer week-long immersive experiences in coding, robotics, and other STEM disciplines for children aged 5-14. The curriculum is designed to be progressive, accommodating all skill levels from beginner to advanced, with instructors modifying and customizing content to keep every student engaged and challenged. Campers participate in hands-on activities and project-based learning, fostering critical thinking, problem-solving, and design skills. Specific programs include Scratch for creative game design and animation, Python for real text-based coding, and various robotics camps utilizing LEGO Education WeDo 2.0, Spike Essential, Spike Prime, EV3, Vex Go, and Vex IQ platforms. Students build projects like number games, calculators, data visualizers, and advanced robots, culminating in a Friday showcase where they can share their creations with family and friends. The camp emphasizes learning through doing in a collaborative, small-group setting.
