Kids become explorers and<br />
creators at Noggin Builders camps<br />
How do you build a<br />
dunk tank? What can<br />
cooking teach us about<br />
chemistry? What kinds of<br />
challenges would you create<br />
if you made an escape<br />
room? These are just a<br />
few of the questions kids<br />
explore in Noggin Builders<br />
camps, where they<br />
dive into different STEMrelated<br />
themes each week<br />
and follow their curiosity<br />
along new pathways.<br />
At Noggin Builders, we<br />
have a blast creating and<br />
experimenting in classes<br />
all year round—but summer<br />
is the time to really<br />
dig in and have fun. Kids<br />
collaborate with each other<br />
on projects, and new<br />
friendships are forged<br />
while they’re inventing<br />
and learning. There’s<br />
no better way to sharpen<br />
problem-solving and creative<br />
thinking skills while<br />
school’s out.<br />
Whether your kids are<br />
in preschool, elementary<br />
school, or middle school,<br />
Noggin Builders has a<br />
place for them to explore<br />
and grow this summer.<br />
Pre-K<br />
Curious kids ages 3 to<br />
5 years find learning opportunities<br />

from Da Vinci’s art<br />
to Dr. Seuss to dinosaurs.<br />
