Children learn through play — and no one knows this better than Thinkery! Every summer, Thinkery Camps offer such fun experiences with hands-on explorations of science, technology, engineering, arts and math (STEAM).
Thinkery’s in-person summer camps will begin on Monday, May 31 and run through mid-August. Each weeklong camp provides a creative, safe and challenging environment for campers to learn and grow—and have a whole lot of fun while they’re doing it! Families can choose from three different STEAM-focused themes, with activities and experiences designed for campers in three different age groups.
New camps start every week, so it’s easy to schedule around other summer activities and travel.
Camp Themes
Thinkery offers three unique themes that inspire campers to learn while having fun. Campers use science, technology, engineering, arts and math – and their imaginations, of course! – to explore new concepts, solve challenges and develop critical learning skills.
Activities are targeted for three different age groups: Pre-K and Kindergarten, 1st-2nd grade, and 3rd-5th grade.
- Tinkering with Color and Light
Sparks will fly as campers tinker with cool circuits, bright lights, and vibrant colors. Explore how light is used in science, art, medicine, engineering, and more. Campers will light up their imaginations by creating their very own worlds of color and light! - Engineering with Sound
Let’s make some noise! Explore the physics, tools, and tactics that create the sounds we hear every day, from 100-piece orchestras to backyard crickets. Design your own instruments, investigate the components of sound, and discover how your ears capture a beat. Ride a sound wave as you design with the technology and science of sound! - Make It or Break It
This maker camp uses the cyclical design process to innovate and improve on your awesome inventions! Campers will be challenged to deconstruct and fabricate, then do it again. Use each attempt to make the next iteration that much better!
