Summer Camps at TCS are sponsored by UD’s College of Education and Human Development. These camps provide a full week of hands-on engagement and active learning, among a staff of experienced and committed professionals.

STEAM – Robotics:
The University of Delaware’s Children’s Campus offers a STEAM Robotics Camp, for students currently in grades 1-4. This one-week program provides an introduction to robotic devices and basic computer coding.  Utilizing platforms such as Google’s Blockly and MIT’s SCRATCH, students will actively engage in these programming languages.  Creative thinking and reasoning skills will be applied, as children interact daily with Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math projects, as well as interactive games sessions. 

STEAM – Escape
The University of Delaware’s Children’s Campus also offers students currently in grade 4 – 6 a chance to Escape!  Yes, students must route an escape from digital games and lock boxes, while developing the required skills and strategies to create their very own escape game.  Throughout the week, campers will also visit Science, Technology, and Art facilities on the UD campus.  Finally, the week will culminate with an exciting trip to a local Escape Room where campers will put their acquired skills into practice!
