This free, five-day camp offers a unique opportunity for tweens to design and build a collaborative cardboard carnival game while exploring diverse maker skills in a library setting.
Tweens at the Denver Public Library's MakerCamp at Central engage in a hands-on, five-day program focused on designing and constructing cardboard carnival games. Participants explore various maker tools and skills, including coding, circuitry, and 3D printing, within the library's ideaLAB. The camp emphasizes teamwork as campers collaborate to bring their creative game ideas to life. By the end of the week, they showcase their completed carnival games to family and friends. This immersive experience fosters creativity, problem-solving, and practical application of STEM concepts in a fun and engaging environment.
Campers spend the day designing, creating, and building their cardboard carnival games, utilizing various tools and technologies available in the ideaLAB.
This camp is best for tweens aged 9-13 who enjoy hands-on projects, collaborative building, and exploring new technologies.
