About

In this hands-on engineering camp, students learn how to build their own interactive electronic devices. Using user-friendly microcontrollers, campers will build circuits, then code them to create systems that light up, buzz, react to motion & sound, and more.

Students begin with the basics—how electricity flows, how devices collect data, and how coding controls hardware—then apply those skills to build smart alarms, reaction-time games, simple monitors, and interactive devices. (No coding experience required.)

By the end of the week, each camper will have developed a working knowledge of physical computing, controls, sensors and more. This camp is ideal for students new to electronics as well as those ready to level up their engineering skills. Recommended for ages 11-15.

Special Instructions & Preparation:
General Student Skills Requirements
To get the most out of this camp, students should be comfortable with the following basic computer skills:
Opening and navigating an internet browser
Switching between multiple tabs or windows
Cutting, copying, and pasting text
Windows: Ctrl + X / C / V
Mac: Command + X / C / V
No prior coding experience is required. Instruction is guided, hands-on, and age-appropriate.
What Parents Should Know
This is an interactive, project-based camp. Campers will actively explore concepts, build projects, and solve problems throughout the week.
Students may encounter challenges or make mistakes during activities—this is a normal and important part of the learning process. Our instructors support students as they experiment, iterate, and build confidence.
All tools used in camp are web-based and provided by Silicon STEM. Campers do not need to create personal accounts unless explicitly instructed by staff.
Devices & Technology
Camp devices and software are provided and managed by Silicon STEM instructors.
Personal laptops or devices are not required unless otherwise noted.
Students are expected to use devices responsibly and follow instructor guidance.
Lunch Information & Allergies
If your camper is enrolled in both AM and PM camps during the same week, please pack a bag lunch so they can join us during the supervised lunch hour.
Please avoid foods that require heating or refrigeration.
For the safety of all campers, do not pack any peanut or peanut-containing products, as we have campers with severe peanut allergies.
If your child has additional allergies or dietary considerations, please notify us in advance so we can help ensure a safe environment.
