Campers build and take home their own robots, providing a tangible outcome of their hands-on STEM learning experience.
Stevie The Inventor's STEM Camp offers hands-on adventures where kids design, build, and program their own robots using real tools and materials. Campers engage in various STEM challenges, science experiments, and creative engineering activities, fostering invention and problem-solving skills. Each week features a different robot-building theme, such as Robot Racing, Space Explorers (Mars rover builds, space station designs, astronomy activities), and Game Bots (robot soccer, sumo wrestling bots). The program emphasizes teamwork, critical thinking, and communication skills through collaborative learning opportunities. Students will build multiple robots throughout the week and take them home, gaining practical experience in motors, circuits, and basic programming. The camp aims to inspire curiosity and a lifelong love for STEM, preparing children for future success by developing in-demand skills.
A typical day includes arrival and icebreakers, followed by robot design and building sessions. After lunch and free play, campers continue with robot building and testing, concluding with a showcase and pickup.
This camp is best for curious children aged 5-12 who love to build, explore, create, and discover, and are interested in hands-on robotics and STEM challenges.
