American Robotics Academy offers hands-on robotics and engineering summer camps where students design, build, and program robots using LEGO® Technic systems and coding tools. Campers engage in projects that blend mechanical engineering, coding fundamentals, and problem-solving in a supportive, small-group environment. Activities include building various robots like Crab Bots and Lawn Mower robots, programming them to react and move, and participating in friendly competitions. The curriculum is designed to foster creativity, teamwork, and critical thinking, with students taking turns as builders, engineers, and testers. Through these engaging challenges, children gain practical STEM knowledge, develop communication skills, and build confidence in an exciting, sports-like atmosphere.
A typical day involves hands-on building and programming challenges using LEGO® Technic systems, collaborating in small teams to design and test robots, and participating in fun physical activity challenges or friendly competitions.
This camp is best for curious and creative students aged 5-12 who enjoy hands-on projects, teamwork, and want to explore the fundamentals of robotics, coding, and mechanical engineering.
