Concepts your child will learn: Real life money management, economics, town designing, and care of the environment. They will also learn how to establish teamwork and develop their creativity and Problem Solving.
Modding with Minecraft
Explore, create, or survive! Mine deep into the Minecraft world and create the future! In our modding with Minecraft course, you'll challenge the odds, craft your own kinds of weapons and build dream worlds using code. You will do this while also learning fundamental programming concepts, level design, and problem-solving skills. You will make use of ready-made coding blocks to create mini versions of Minecraft games all throughout the course.
Concepts your child will learn: Introduction to debugging programs, code using drag and drop or Java, problem-solving, and learning transferable programming skills. They will also learn how to make mods and make their own Texture Packs!
Roblox Game Development
Anyone can build a game in Roblox! Roblox studio has all the tools to make your wildest gaming imaginations a reality. You tell us what game you want to make, and we'll teach you the fundamentals and coach you through bringing that game to life! Whether you're new to coding or have some experience, you will be challenged and have fun while bringing your game to life. Through drag-and-drop techniques or pure scripting, you’ll be creating extensions to the Roblox game while fostering your creativity and learning real-¬world computer coding.
Concepts your child will learn: Learn to use Roblox Studio 3D game engine to design a 3D world, game design using Roblox Studio, mathematical concepts, and write code scripts to program characters and objects in the game. They will also learn the life cycle of game development (from planning to design to their finished product) and finding and fixing errors in their code.
2D & 3D Game Development with Unity
Anyone can build a game in Roblox! Roblox studio has all the tools to make your wildest gaming imaginations a reality. You tell us what game you want to make, and we'll teach you the fundamentals and coach you through bringing that game to life! Whether you're new to coding or have some experience, you will be challenged and have fun while bringing your game to life.

Concepts your child will learn:
At the end of the week, each camper will have a completed project in Unity and be able to execute their game on their device. Campers will have learned many important skills of object oriented design, 3D game design, scripting, animations, and problem solving skills.
Build Your Own Robots and 3D Printing
In our LEGO WeDo Robotics course, you'll have hands-on experience in building STEM projects! Using LEGO block and coding with drag n drop techniques, you'll get to build your own robotic models and create the code to make your robots come alive! You will use motors, motion sensors, tilt sensors to make fun robots! You'll also have the opportunity to participate in FLL Jr. challenge! As part of this camp, you will learn everything you need to know to design and 3D print your own creations! You'll learn TinkerCAD, an awesome 3D modeling program that will let you design just about anything. You won't just get to design, we'll print out your favorite creation for you to take home!
Camp Outcomes: By the end of the week, each camper would have created their own robots! They will have learned how to make their robots come alive using drag and drop coding. They will have learned about using motors to build motions, motion sensors and so much more. They will have learned 3D modeling, XYZ coordinates and they will get a printed design to take home!
