Kids STEAM Summer Camps
Challenge Island is an award-winning STEAM enrichment program where smart and curious kids work together in “STEAM Teams” to solve fun, hands-on “challenges” which teach them about STEAM fundamentals and cross curricular topics, plus important success skills like creativity, critical thinking, problem solving and much more. Each of our classes focus on a positive atmosphere packed with activities and learning, with the goal of encouraging children to be more confident and excited about their skills in STEAM and working together.
ADDITIONAL INFO:
• Students should bring a snack and wear sunscreen each day, as we will take snack and outdoor play breaks when possible.
• Also, for students who plan to participate in both the morning and afternoon camps this week, they are welcome to bring a sack lunch and stay with us from 12-1pm at no extra cost.

Join us for a mini-monstrous journey into the Challenge Island wild! Our adventurous STEAM Teams are on a quest to catch, collect and train all of the island’s mini-monsters. They’ll visit gyms, earn badges, go on treasure hunts, and even engage in a battle or two. With the help of their ally STEAMaroo, a clever and friendly kangaroo islandmon, our STEAM Teams will tackle an island full of engineering challenges as they evolve into true STEAM Champions. Ready? Let’s go!
