Wizards and Potions Camp

Is your child fascinated by a young wizard learning the magical arts and spells? You arrived at the perfect camp. During the week participants will have the chance to wear their wizard robes, make wands, and immerse themselves in the enchanting ambiance of the camp. The camp’s curriculum combines principles of “wizardry” combined with chemistry, physics, biology, and other sciences. The magic of wizard influence encourages campers to think creatively.

Campers can expect a wide range of activities, including writing a secret message, brewing bubbly slime potions with household ingredients, making enchanted crystals and unraveling the secrets of fire fairies. All activities are offered in age-appropriate groups of muggles. During the week we will also venture out on field trips that usually include a hike and visit to a local attraction.

Pixels and Blocs Creators Camp

Welcome to the Ultimate Gamers camp. If your child is a Minecraft, Mario Cart and Lego Lover, this ia a great option for a summer camp, where pixelated adventures come to life.

This camp is designed for young enthusiasts who dream of exploring the vast, blocky landscapes on a screen and in a real-world setting. We provide an hour a day for campers to play their favorite game. When away from the screens, campers will participate in outdoor hikes and grounding activities. They will design characters from Lego blocks, make magnetic slime, build their own “skin” out of boxes in an environment of friendly competitions.

Throughout the week we will talk about science and technology involved in creating video games. This camp promises an unforgettable time filled with creativity and building adventures.

Mystic Creatures Trainer Camp

One of our most popular camps for both boys and girls. We bring the universe of campers loving Pokémon, Dragons, Unicorns characters into life, allowing them to become “trainers” as they enter epic quests, “catch” creatures, and challenge themselves in creative ways.

Our camp revolves around the mystic creature’s favorite elements like water, fire and ice where exploration, adventure and teamwork are encouraged and guided through. From themed physical activities, science experiments, cards market exchange to creative sessions that inspire campers to design their own character or catching ball, every moment of camp ties back to the immersive world of mystic creatures.

Slime Masters Camp

SparkYou’s Slime Masters science camp is the absolute parents favorite! Chemistry can be messy, slime can be messy, but we do not mind the mess at all and allow campers to make as many slimes as they wish.

From the basics of polymer chemistry campers will learn the science behind slime—what makes it stretchy, sticky, and oh-so-satisfying—as they experiment with different ingredients, textures, and colors to design their own slime creations.

Whether it’s designing the stretchiest slime, creating the sparkiest slime, or engineering a slime that can defy gravity, there’s no limit to what our slime masters can achieve. The camp’s curriculum combines principles of states of matter and importance of following the mechanical process to obtain best results.

Core Experiences Included in Every Camp

Hands-On Science Experiments:

Campers conduct exciting experiments, from building
rockets, creating chemical reactions to learning the science during field trips and each activity.

Interactive Learning:

Campers not only get to witness exciting science demonstrations, live experiments, but are divided into age-appropriate groups to perform the experiments themselves.

Camper's hands-on projects:

On the first day of the camp, campers share what they are excited to learn about. We turn their ideas into hands-on projects. Their curiosity creates the program, making every activity fun and engaging!

Outdoor Exploration:

Throughout the week we organize off campus trips that include hikes, activity venues and sightseeing combined with “putting into practice” subjects of science. Campers discover each location’s hidden gems while learning chemistry, physics and biology in the native environment.

Small group collaboration and problem-solving

Our camp is dedicated to creating a safe and supportive environment for every camper, fostering a culture of acceptance and friendship. Through engaging team-building activities and open discussions, we try to equip campers with the tools to cultivate self-confidence, empathy, and kindness.

Age-Appropriate Group Activities

Our uniqueness lies in maintaining a low student-to-teacher ratio, ensuring that each child receives individualized attention and guidance. Unlike other camps, we prioritize quality over quantity by having a higher number of teachers serving as counselors. This approach allows us to provide a supportive and interactive learning environment.
