Entering Grades 1-6:

Imaginations will soar this summer with ELEVATE! Experience the all-new 2020 Camp Invention program where campers will take on fun, hands-on STEM challenges that encourage critical thinking, communication, collaboration and creativity! This is a great summer camp for children entering 1st-6th grade who want to build their confidence as creators and innovators. Elevate your curiosity this summer!

Highlights of this year's program are:

• Critical Thinking: Imaginations soar as children learn about flight with paper planes, gliders, rockets, heliballs and hand-copters. They will build a cityscape out of upcycled materials, navigate planes through a storm and take apart a robot they’ll bring home in FLIGHT LAB™.
• Communication: In DESIGN THINKING PROJECT™ children learn the value of their creativity as they gain confidence while bringing their biggest ideas to life. Learning to become successful entrepreneurs, they will create sketches, build prototypes, design logos and find out how to pitch and market their products, while protecting their intellectual property.
• Collaboration: Using teamwork and problem-solving skills, children can protect the Earth’s ecosystems. Inspiring activities include sending a rescue pod down a zipline, exploring energy conservation, making parachutes, eliminating pollution and helping wildlife in habitats across the country in RESCUE SQUAD™.
• Creativity: In CHAMPIONS™ children discover the game-changing inventors behind their favorite sports. By applying their own ingenuity and problem-solving skills, they create and play their own high-energy hover-ball games, design equipment and build the ultimate sports complex for their “Innovation Dream Team”.

Camp Invention runs for one week beginning August 17, from 9 am to 3:30 pm, in partnership with the Oceanside Department of Community Activities.
