About this camp

The Works Museum Robotics Camps offer engaging, hands-on experiences for children ages 6-12, fostering exploration in robotics, coding, and building. Campers delve into fundamental robotics concepts through interactive games, wiring, and construction. Programs like Junior Robotics introduce younger participants to basic robotics, while Robocoding with LEGO WeDo 2.0 allows kids to build and program robots using iPads and specialized software. Older campers can advance their skills in LEGO Robotics I, where they design, build, and program robotic creations using the LEGO Mindstorms EV3 system to complete missions. The camps emphasize problem-solving, critical thinking, and creativity within a supportive STEM environment. Some camps are also offered in a girls-only format to promote gender equity in STEM. Campers gain practical experience in engineering design, programming logic, and collaborative teamwork.
