Camp Invention Connect

An At-Home K-6 Summer Camp Offering Flexibility and Fun for Homeschoolers

What is Camp Invention Connect?

The most inspiring virtual summer camp inviting homeschool families and pods to join from anywhere!

Who: Curious kids of all learning styles entering grades K-6
What: An opportunity to safely collaborate, make friends and explore hands-on STEM fun in ways that work for your family
Where: Anywhere you are
When: Check back soon for our 2022 camp dates!
Why: Because when kids have this much fun teaming up, exploring and creating, they won’t even realize how much they’re learning!
How much: $235 for a week of action-packed, collaborative virtual camp sessions, activities that support STEM and social-emotional learning, and all the creative materials your child will need

Here’s how our camp works:

Your Innovator’s Toolkit — packed with all the materials needed to complete the experience — is shipped directly to your door

Your child can join fellow campers for a week of virtual camp sessions (four per day for five consecutive days!) led by a certified educator, and they'll get access to exclusive online resources

Virtual session attendance is recommended but not required — you can choose how your child engages in camp each day by joining all, some or none of the sessions

Even if you plan to approach camp as a self-led experience, without any virtual sessions, we ask that you sign up for a specific week — this will tell us when to ship your Innovator’s Toolkit and ensure that if you do decide to join virtual sessions, we will have a spot saved for you!

Check all the boxes for homeschool STEM

Kids love Camp Invention Connect^® because it delivers creative, hands-on fun. Parents love it because it includes all the materials and step-by-step instructions, aligns with standards and provides plenty of options. You can confidently lead your child through the activities, encourage a self-led experience, or opt for online collaboration with a certified educator Coach and new friends.

Here’s what an action-packed day looks like with Camp Invention Connect

Get Excited for Your Program

The Innovator’s Toolkit — packed with everything your camper needs — will be sent straight to your home ahead of the program start date, so you’ll be set for a week of hands-on fun and exploration!

When your package arrives, your camper can check out all their materials and set up their own space for creativity with their Innovator Workshop, complete with a Pegboard, Toolbelt and Maker Mat.

Daily Kickoff (9 a.m.)

Your child will join a certified educator — their Camp Invention Connect^® Coach — and fellow campers to start each day of camp with a live online session that includes icebreakers, module instruction and opportunities to collaborate and socialize.

If your camper can’t join live, don’t worry — you will have access to videos that go through each activity step by step.

Create and Invent (11 a.m.)

Following a quick break, kids get back together online to make, create and invent with their Coach and fellow campers.

Afternoon Hangout (1 p.m.)

After taking a break for lunch, kids join their Coach and fellow campers to socialize, build friendships and gear up for the rest of the day’s hands-on fun.
