RoboThink Camp: Build, Customize & Compete!

Attention all young warriors and engineers! Get ready for a high-energy, hands-on adventure where creativity, strategy, and engineering collide. In this action-packed RoboThink Battle Robots camp, campers will design, build, and customize their very own mechanical warriors using a variety of real engineering tools and materials.

Throughout the week, participants will dive into the exciting world of robotics and mechanical design, learning how to use motors, gears, axles, and our top-secret hardware to bring their bots to life. With guidance and encouragement from our skilled instructors, campers will gain valuable STEM skills while engaging in imaginative problem-solving and teamwork.

Once their battle robots are built and ready, it’s time to step into the arena! Campers will face off in friendly competitions, testing their creations in head-to-head challenges that reward both smart design and quick thinking. Whether defending their robot’s honor or strategizing their way to victory, every camper will have the chance to shine.

This camp is perfect for kids who love building, tinkering, and a bit of friendly competition. Not only will they leave with a stronger understanding of mechanical systems and robotics, they’ll also walk away with greater confidence, collaboration skills, and unforgettable memories.

If your child dreams of becoming an engineer, inventor, or just loves a good challenge, RoboThink Camp is where their epic summer adventure begins!
