The camp offers a unique blend of hands-on robotics education with access to the Houston Museum of Natural Science's exhibits, providing real-world context for the concepts learned.
Students at the Houston Museum of Natural Science Robotics Camps engage in hands-on activities to build and program robots. Utilizing tools like LEGO® SPIKE™ Prime, campers learn fundamental robotics and engineering concepts through practical application. They will program prebuilt robots to complete challenges and compete in high-tech tournaments, fostering problem-solving skills and teamwork. The curriculum also involves exploring how robots move and manipulate objects by experimenting with gears, electricity, pneumatics, and simple machines. Campers will gain a sense of accomplishment by seeing their code bring robots to life and will have opportunities to tour museum halls to observe real-world examples of automation and robotics.
A typical day involves hands-on robot building and programming challenges, with opportunities to explore museum exhibits for real-world robotics examples.
This camp is ideal for children aged 6-12 who are curious about how robots work and enjoy hands-on building and problem-solving.
