Camp Invention is a nationally recognized, nonprofit elementary enrichment program that partners with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office and is inspired by National Inventors Hall of Fame® Inductees.
Camp Invention at The Gifted Collective offers an all-new STEM summer program for K-6 campers, focusing on hands-on challenges and real-world problem-solving. Campers will engage in activities such as exploring forensic science with robotic capybaras, designing and launching DIY rockets to transform planets, and experimenting with hands-on physics to create billboard boats that float. They will also team up with the Innovation Force® – National Inventors Hall of Fame® Inductees – to invent solutions for community and global challenges, including constructing wearable cryptography devices. The program aims to spark curiosity, build confidence, and develop persistence and creative problem-solving skills through collaborative, open-ended exploration of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. Children will also learn about intellectual property protection and entrepreneurship.
A typical day involves campers collaborating with friends on hands-on STEM challenges, exploring different modules like forensic science or rocket building, and engaging in creative problem-solving activities inspired by real-world inventors.
This camp is best for curious children in kindergarten through sixth grade who enjoy hands-on activities, STEM exploration, and creative problem-solving.
