This exciting, week-long summer adventure explores connections between science, technology, engineering and innovation. Children entering grades 1–6 in Fall 2016 will work together to seek solutions to real-world problems, turn ordinary into extraordinary and sharpen critical 21st Century learning skills while rotating through several fascinating modules:
Crickobot™ - Children explore circuitry as they make and adopt a robotic cricket fueled by a solar cell. Teams discover biomimetics while investigating the biology of a cricket and applying these ideas to new insect-inspired innovations.
Epic Park™ - Someone just purchased Epic Park, located on a pristine island that has rainforest areas, waterfalls, sandy desert stretches, steep cliffs and rolling hills that lead down to the ocean. Now they are looking for innovative thinkers to pitch their most cutting-edge designs for the future of Epic Park.
I Can Invent: Maker Studio™- Participants reverse engineer machines to uncover the parts and pieces they will use to make big innovations. By upcycling and re-powering gears, motors, magnets and other gadgetry, they develop their own patent-worthy prototypes. They explore the science of 3D printing and tinker with circuits to get their gears moving in a new direction as they prepare to make the Next Big Thing!
The Lab: Where Pigs Fly and Anything is Possible™ - Children see themselves as scientists, programmers and biologists testing out more than one dozen experiments in the Camp Invention Laboratories. The petri dish in their imagination is sure to sprout something fascinating during these engaging labs. Investigation and discovery are the key ingredients to fun in the ever-changing Lab - where pigs fly and anything is possible!
Camp Invention will mail additional information and required forms to parents prior to the beginning of camp.
