Epic Engineering Disasters (Full Day)

Turn history's most jaw-dropping structural failures into a powerful launchpad for future success at the Epic Engineering Disasters (Full Day) camp by Bricks Bots & Beakers (Plano STEAM Lab). In this action-packed enrichment program, curious kids explore legendary engineering mishaps, from the sinking of the Titanic and the collapse of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge to the tumbling of the Fidenae stadium and the mythical wings of Icarus, to discover exactly what went wrong. Campers roll up their sleeves and rotate through four dynamic stations daily, including Science, Engineering & Technology, Art, and Personal Exploration, where they actively design, prototype, and test structural solutions of their own. This hands-on problem solving directly builds critical 21st-century soft skills like teamwork, public speaking, creative expression, and confident communication, wrapping up on a high note with a themed movie on the final day. Spanning the full day from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM, this premium all-inclusive immersion provides the ultimate balance of deep-dive individual project work, rotating team challenges, and structured midday social downtime with friends. To stay safe and fully participate, kids should wear comfortable clothing and closed-toe shoes ready for hands-on action. Please pack a packed sack lunch, two healthy snacks, and a large refillable water bottle to stay fully fueled from morning check-in to afternoon checkout, as meals are not provided on-site. Spots are strictly limited and filling up fast. Secure your child's place at the lab bench today to give them a summer of unforgettable breakthrough moments and confidence-building fun!
