If you’d like your kids to have a head start as an inventor or entprepreneur… or just in life, here’s a summer activity that may just be the thing you’re looking for: a camp that uses an invention motif to help younger children improve their overall literacy and “numeracy” (the new buzz word for math skills).
Camp Invention is a weeklong summer enrichment day program offered in local communities for children entering first through sixth grades.
Participating daily in five activity- oriented thematic modules, children enhance their understanding of science, math, history, and the arts while having lots of fun.This exciting program invites children to let their imaginations run wild through teamwork, creative problem solving, and inventive thinking
