Save and Find Easy Ways to Pay for Camp Invention

Explore STEM in brand-new ways this summer at Camp Invention^®!

In our all-new 2027 program, Gear Up, children take on the ultimate STEM challenges to design with creativity, prototype with persistence and build new inventions with confidence. Inspired by National Inventors Hall of Fame^® Inductees, four high-energy experiences packed with hands-on exploration will make this summer the best yet!

This summer, campers will explore the inner workings of mechanical gadgets, take apart a wind-up robot and repurpose parts to create their own invention. Exploring ooey-gooey chemistry in the Backyard Laboratory, they’ll investigate nature’s tiniest organisms before creating a bioinvention that mimics insect anatomy. Inspired by cutting-edge architecture and eco-friendly designs, campers will build towering, multistory superstructures and assemble a motorized elevator. Stepping into entrepreneurship, campers will keep their creative ideas flowing as they compete in dynamic prototyping challenge and design a unique product.

Your camper won’t want to miss out on this all-new adventure — so we’ve made it easy to join in on the fun and save big!
