Camp Invention "Wonder"
- Week 1: June 5-9
Build Big Ideas With Pop-Up Venture™ Children become innovative entrepreneurs as they design their own mini pop-up business! Campers create a business plan and choose how to spend their startup funds. Employing their imaginations, they add lights, greenery, logoed signage and other features to attract customers. After inventing unique ways to distribute their products, children launch their business with the ultimate pop-up event!
- Week2: June 12-16
Create and Skate With Catching Air™ As children build their own mini skate park with ramps, bowls, and rails, they take an exciting ride through physics, design engineering, and art! Campers personalize their mini skateboards, create DIY skateboard riders, and design awesome skate park features. Then it’s time to grind the rails of innovation as they kickflip their way through each other’s one-of-a-kind Skate Parks!
- Week 3: June 19-23
Show Your Style With MimicBot™ Children investigate the inner workings of their own MimicBot — a robot that mimics sounds — and transform it into a one-of-a-kind animatronic stuffie! They find inspiration in nature, get hands-on with design, and use the power of intellectual property to protect their stuffie from the idea-stealing Copy Cat. Then campers take their stuffie home to keep creating and innovating!
- Week 4: June 26-30
Party On With Invention Celebration™ To create the best celebration ever, children become confident event planners! They have fun engineering light-up party hats, inventing a Party Assistant to help with their big plans, exploring color with bubble art banners and experimenting with sound as they create instruments. When the day of the big celebration arrives, children rotate between fun stations as they celebrate all their amazing accomplishments.
Here’s what an action-packed day looks like with Bear Trek's Camp Invention
A.M. Base Camp
Drop off your camper with their Camp Invention teachers, and they’ll start each day with games that encourage teamwork and spark creativity.
Morning Modules or Activities
Half of the campers take on two creative challenges (camp invention modules) while the other campers do activities (such as pool, arts, sports, water games, etc). During modules, we will introduce your child to world-changing inventors, keep them active, and encourage their curiosity and creative thinking.
Games & Lunch
Half of the campers head outside — or to the gym — to play action-packed games while the others campers eat the lunch they’ve packed. Then they switch!
Afternoon Modules or Activities
Half of the campers take on two creative challenges (camp invention modules) while the other campers do activities (such as pool, arts, sports, water games, etc). During modules, we will introduce your child to world-changing inventors, keep them active, and encourage their curiosity and creative thinking.
P.M. Base Camp
The day wraps up as campers wind down with problem-solving games. When you sign out your camper, they’ll tell you just how much fun they had at Camp Invention!
