Crazy Contraptions (Ages 11-13)
By Club SciKidz (Austin) (First Unitarian Universalist Church of Austin)
AGES 11-13
About
Build, test, and tinker your way through a week of hands-on engineering fun! Campers will design creative contraptions, experiment with real-world physics, and turn big ideas into working builds through teamwork, problem-solving, and lots of trial-and-error (the fun kind). Using materials like Keva Planks, engineering kits, and everyday items, campers will tackle clever challenges, learn how simple machines work together, and celebrate both their successes and their hilarious "oops" moments. What to bring: Each camper should bring a lunch, snacks, and drinks each day. Since we have an outdoor component, a small water bottle is advisable. Sunscreen and a hat are recommended. Please see our policy and waiver concerning the application of sunscreen under our FAQ Risk Management category. Electronic devices are not permitted at camp and will be confiscated until picked up by a parent.
