Thinkery Camps offer a unique child-led approach to STEAM learning, allowing campers' interests to drive activities and fostering confidence through hands-on exploration with real tools and technology.
Thinkery STEM Camps offer hands-on, play-based STEAM experiences for elementary-aged children, focusing on building confidence, sparking curiosity, and developing a deeper understanding of the world. Campers engage in a variety of activities, from exploring coding basics with Ozobots and Bee-Bots to designing and building moving machines and inventive structures using real tools like Chomp Saws and power cutters. They also delve into environmental science by investigating local ecosystems and creating art from natural objects, and explore the science of light, sound, and color through experiments and creative projects. The camps emphasize collaborative problem-solving, creative expression, and responsible risk-taking, encouraging children to learn by doing in a joyful and supportive environment. Activities are child-led, allowing campers' interests to drive the types of tools and projects they undertake, fostering critical thinking and innovation.
A typical day involves hands-on exploration of STEAM concepts through collaborative games, design challenges, maker activities, and experiments, with campers using real tools and technology to bring their ideas to life.
This camp is best for curious and creative elementary-aged students who enjoy hands-on learning, experimenting, and collaborative problem-solving in a playful environment.
