The camp offers an experiential and challenging learning environment with games and scientific experiments that visualize natural phenomena and the forces acting around them.
This Young Engineers Academy day camp offers children an engaging environment to explore STEM concepts through hands-on activities. Campers will build and test machines using K'NEX and LEGO kits, delving into various engineering disciplines such as simple machines, robotics, and aerospace engineering. The curriculum is designed to foster problem-solving skills and creativity through experiential learning. Daily activities include constructing motorized LEGO models, conducting science experiments that can be taken home, and participating in challenges that visualize natural phenomena. The camp aims to provide a deeper understanding of how different components work together to create motion and apply scientific principles to real-world applications.
Specific camp themes may include Treasure Hunters, where children use motorized LEGO builds, science projects, and art to follow a treasure map and create stories, or Science Camp, focusing on the laws and concepts of science, math, and engineering through experiments. Another theme, Crazy Cars, involves building various motorized vehicles and learning about motors and transmissions. LEGO Sports allows participants to build and play with motorized LEGOs while learning about scientific principles like gravity and friction. The camp emphasizes a challenging and fun learning environment, encouraging campers to experiment and enjoy the process of construction and discovery.
During each day, campers will build exciting motorized LEGO® brick models, reflecting STEM theories learned, and perform science experiments that kids can take home.
This camp is best for children aged 5-11 who love to experience, experiment, and enjoy LEGO construction while exploring science, technology, engineering, and math concepts.
