1:00 PM - 4:00 PM    Built By Me, Summer Camp - LEGO® Robotics & Coding w/ Scratch MIT – Quirky Adventures Camp - PM Session
Built by Me offers STEM robotics and coding programs geared to children in grades 1 - 5. Their mission is to teach children to create via technology. Built by Me programs are interactive, collaborative, hands-on, project-based, and focused on using technology to create and learn new skills while having fun! Within the tight age range, classes are broken down even further, grades 1 - 3 and 3 - 5, so children can gain the appropriate skills at their level of maturity. Classes are small (maximum 8 participants) to ensure each child has personalized attention and the chance to collaborate and socialize. Robotics with mBot RobotThis camp offers a well-rounded and engaging experience for children interested in exploring the exciting world of robots and coding. Young engineers will discover the basics of coding and robotics as they learn how to program the mBot robot to complete a variety of tasks, building and expanding their coding skills along the way. This fun and interactive program will have them track and probably chase their mBots through mazes and other activities.LEGO® Robotics and Coding – Summer FunThis fun and interactive camp will introduce children to coding, robotics, and engineering using the LEGO® Education Robotics Construction Sets. Throughout the week, campers will participate in hands-on STEM activities and team-building challenges to learn concepts such as sequencing, debugging and troubleshooting. They will work in pairs on building models using sensors and motors that will allow them to code their prototypes to simulate amusement park rides. Young engineers will learn and gain confidence as they build and test their designs, reinforcing these concepts.LEGO® Robotics & Coding w/ Scratch MIT – Summer GetawayThis fun and interactive camp will introduce children to coding, robotics, and engineering using the LEGO® Education Robotics Construction Sets. Throughout the week, campers will participate in hands-on STEM activities and team-building challenges to learn concepts such as sequencing, debugging, and troubleshooting. They will work in pairs on building models using sensors and motors that will allow them to code their prototypes to simulate means of transportation using Scratch MIT, a block-based coding language. Young engineers will learn and gain confidence as they build and test their designs, reinforcing these concepts.LEGO® Robotics & Coding w/ Scratch MIT – Sports Universe CampThis engaging and interactive camp invites children to explore the exciting world of coding, robotics, and engineering using LEGO® Spike Essential Education Robotics Construction Sets. Throughout the week, campers will immerse themselves in hands-on STEM projects and collaborative challenges. Working in pairs, they’ll design and build models centered on sports, then program their robots' behavior, using sensors and motors. Aspiring young engineers will develop skills, boost confidence, and have fun bringing their ideas to life through dynamic design and testing activities.LEGO® Robotics and Coding – Space Quest CampThis dynamic and interactive camp offers an introduction to coding, robotics, and engineering through the use of LEGO® Spike Essential Education Robotics Construction Sets. Utilizing sensors and motors, campers work in pairs to build and code models focused on space exploration. The camp incorporates a variety of hands-on STEM activities and team-building challenges. Through building, testing, and problem-solving, young engineers gain confidence while fostering creativity and innovation.LEGO® Robotics & Coding w/ Scratch MIT – Quirky Adventures CampThis dynamic camp immerses children in coding, robotics, and engineering with LEGO® Spike Essential Education Robotics Construction Sets. Working in pairs, campers will build imaginative models like a trash monster and high-tech playground, integrating sensors and motors. They will then code their models using Scratch MIT, a block-based code. The hands-on experience emphasizes engineering design skills—defining problems, brainstorming solutions, and testing prototypes. The camp's fusion of creativity, technology, and collaboration makes STEM concepts accessible and fun.
