SUMMER CAMP GUIDE


Welcome to <strong>Snapology</strong>’s<br />

2018 Summer Camp Guide!<br />

New for this year are some fantastic programs<br />

where we take a closer look at alternative energy,<br />

sports science, drones, art history and the science<br />

behind super powers!<br />

We can’t wait for this summer’s camps that will be held at <strong>Snapology</strong>’s<br />

Discovery Center in Uptown, as well as around the Twin Cities at some<br />

absolutely fabulous partner locations like Minnehaha Academy, Blake<br />

School, Kiddywampus and more. Discovery Center camps can be<br />

attended as morning or afternoon sessions, or you can combine the 2<br />

themes for the week and have your kiddo bring a lunch and learn and<br />

build all day!<br />

This year we’ve got a ton of great camps happening<br />

at our new Discovery Center in Uptown every week of<br />

the summer, as well as at some of our favorite schools<br />

and educational partners around the Twin Cities. We’ve<br />

got you covered for kiddos as young as 3 and as old<br />

as 14 - Robotics, Coding, Science, Technology, Themed<br />

Camps, Pre-K, Engineering, Architecture and more!<br />

NOLOGY


How <strong>Snapology</strong> Camps Work<br />

<strong>Snapology</strong> Camps Locations<br />

CURRICULUM: <strong>Snapology</strong> camps provide a perfect mixture of learning and<br />

fun. We incorporate the education, social skills and STEAM concepts into the<br />

creating, inventing, games and fun. All of the learning principles taught in our<br />

programs are mapped to Common Core Standards and many are mapped to<br />

Next Generation Science Standards.<br />

CAMP TIMING: Each week has numerous camps that are as short as 3 hours<br />

and as long as 35 hours.<br />

FULL DAY CAMPS: Almost all of the camps taking place at our Discovery<br />

Center can be registered for as either morning or afternoon camps, or combined<br />

into a full day/full week camp that cover 2 different themes that work well<br />

together. There are separate registration links for morning/afternoon/full day.<br />

Children will bring bagged lunches to eat with the group each day.<br />

AGES: The schedule has something for everyone! Short Pre-K camps,<br />

educational and fun camps for kids going into Kindergarten, awesome grade<br />

school camps, and programs designed specifically for middle schoolers as well.<br />

We tried to spread them all out evenly throughout the summer and around the city.<br />

PARTNER LOCATIONS: We’re back at Hale, Kiddywampus and Minnehaha<br />

Academy this year, which we’re super excited about! We’re also going to be<br />

running camps at all 3 Blake School campuses, The Friends School, St. Paul<br />

JCC and Crystal Rec Center.<br />

EXERCISE AND ENERGY: While <strong>Snapology</strong>’s camps include some games<br />

and activities that get the kids moving, we’re firmly in the academic camp arena.<br />

However, most of our partners provide physical camps that can be paired with<br />

<strong>Snapology</strong> camps, so your children can get some energy out and learn and<br />

build as well. Our Discovery Center is 1 block away from Whittier School, which<br />

happens to have a fantastic park and field. We will offer families the option of<br />

having their children go over to the park with our staff for 15-20 minute breaks in<br />

the morning and afternoon to run a bit.<br />

REGISTRATION: The “Camp Registration Calendar” link below will take you<br />

to a calendar view of the summer. You can toggle the view by location or a full<br />

list of events if you’d like to see everything we’ve got to offer in a different way.<br />

When you click on a camp, you will see which ages the camps are best suited<br />

for, cost, timeframe and information about the camp content.<br />

QUESTIONS ABOUT CAMPS: Feel free to call or email any time to talk<br />

SNAPOLOGY VISION:<br />

Children are meant to learn through play. When children are actively<br />

engaged in hands-on, interactive learning activities, their creativity<br />

flourishes and they show a greater interest in school. At <strong>Snapology</strong> we<br />

help your child grow up with a thirst for knowledge. How do we do it?<br />

<strong>Snapology</strong> engages children ages 1-14 using LEGO® bricks, K’Nex and<br />

technology. While the kids are having fun with familiar toys, laptops and<br />

iPads, we sneak in the educational concepts.<br />

RESEARCH BASED<br />

Our approach is based on proven research; that childrens’ best learning experiences<br />

come from actively designing, creating, interacting and inventing. <strong>Snapology</strong> activities<br />

encourage social skills and teamwork, while teaching science, technology, engineering,<br />

art, math and literacy concepts.<br />

<strong>Snapology</strong>’s flexible curriculum allows teachers to adapt to the needs of each unique<br />

group of students while allowing children to progress and explore at their own pace.<br />

The curriculum is designed to benefit all students - gifted, traditional, and special needs<br />

students including sensory and autism spectrum.<br />

ROBOTICS FOR ALL AGES!<br />

<strong>Snapology</strong> provides interactive Robotics programs for children ages 3-14 using LEGO®<br />

bricks. Students in our robotics programs learn pseudo-coding, coding, robotics and<br />

engineering principles. Using fun topics and themes, such as animals, games, space<br />

and battle machines, we embrace children’s interest and curiosity to guide them<br />

through robotics and engineering principles. Our programs provide the best mix of fun<br />

and education for your child. In fact, most kids have so much fun in our programs, they<br />

don’t even realize how much they are learning.<br />

LEGO®- THEMED CLASSES, CAMPS & WORKSHOPS<br />

<strong>Snapology</strong>’s themed programs are designed to promote creative play, teamwork and<br />

social skills. Through the use of popular topics like Minecraft, Star Wars & Superheroes,<br />

students are engaged a variety of theme-focused activities while learning engineering<br />

and math principles. <strong>Snapology</strong>’s goal is to put purpose to their building through<br />

blueprinting and idea sharing.Our themed programs use LEGO® bricks, K’Nex and<br />

other interactive building toys to engage children and spark their creativity.<br />

STEM CAMPS FOR PRE-SCHOOLERS<br />

In <strong>Snapology</strong>’s preschool programs, children ages 2-6 engage in fun, educational<br />

play. At <strong>Snapology</strong> we understand that children are meant to learn through play. Our<br />

programs incorporate DUPLO® blocks and are designed to inspire creativity and<br />

enhance fine motor skills while teaching lessons such as letter recognition, phonics,<br />

writing skills, story telling, basic engineering and robotics. That’s right, we offer robotics<br />

as young as 3 years old. We understand the importance of inspiring kids at young age<br />

to help them reach their full potential.<br />
