About Camp
iGen ignites learning in children and enhances their 21st century skills through
project-based learning and digital learning in science, technology, engineering and
math. Campers or as we like to call them, iGeners, will engage in Robotics, Makerspace (STEM Projects), Coding, and Science Experiments (check out “Pathways” on our website for more information). Outside of our awesome pathways, iGeners will have a daily “brain break” where they’ll have recess at our playground or the local park (weather permitting). Throughout the summer, we’ll sprinkle in some field trips. We’ll rotate between adventurous, educational and just plain ole fun trips!
Camp Will Meet
645 Pennsylvania Ave Suite #300
9-4pm
Monday – Friday
June 23- August 22
Sessions and Fees
The camp at this location is for students entering grades 1-4. During weeks 3-5 we also offer special camps for students in grades 3-5. Please note, an iGener in grades 3-5 do not have to sign up for robotics and drones. Those offerings are best for students who have a great interest in coding, drones and robotics. If your child likes a mix of STEAM activities or has a shorter attention span, our regular camp is best for them.

STEM Activities
Robotics
Students will build and program a series of robots; students will also have the opportunity to complete many challenges with their robots.
Science
iGeners will explore many scientific concepts through our hands-on, engaging activities, experiments and projects.
Markerspace
iGener are provided the opportunity to gather tools and materials to create, invent, tinker, design, engineer or fabricate.
Team Building
iGeners will participate in STEM challenges to encourage cooperative learning which helps promote social interactions.
Coding
Students who are in PreK are introduced to coding concepts through physical games and activities.
Lego
iGeners will dive into STEM activities by building, designing, and testing out cool solutions. And don’t worry—there’ll be plenty of time for free building, so they can get creative and have fun!
Camps for 3rd to 5th Graders
Camps for 3rd to 5th Graders
Looking for something different? Our drone and robotics camps are just what you need! These camps are separate from our regular STEAM Camp, and during these weeks, students will dive deep into drones and robotics. For the drone enthusiasts, make sure to sign up for Drones Part 1 and Part 2, as they build on each other.
- Week 3 (July 7 – 11): Drones Part 1
- Week 4 (July 14 – 18): Drones Part 2
- Week 5 (July 21 – 25): Robotics
Drone Camp: Get ready to fly! Our drone curriculum makes learning fun and hands-on. Students will build skills in coding, problem-solving, and teamwork as they tackle exciting, real-world challenges with drone-themed STEM missions. It’s all about working together, learning from mistakes, and coming up with creative solutions.
Robotics Camp: In this camp, students will get their hands dirty with some serious robotics fun. They’ll research, solve problems, code, and engineer as they build and program a LEGO® robot to complete missions. Plus, they’ll take on an innovation project where they’ll brainstorm and tackle a real-world problem, sparking creativity and critical thinking along the way.
Summer Camp Frequently Asked Questions
How do I register my child?
You can register your child by using the link embedded in the “Register for Camp” button.
What if the week I want is full?
If the week you want is full, you can add yourself to the waitlist at no cost! Should a slot open up, we will notify you via email. Please note that our team is unable to manually add you to the waitlist.
What is your refund policy?
Due to limited space, refunds will not be given after April 4, 2025. Prior to April 4, families can be refunded 50% for canceled weeks. Families may also receive a full credit for the total amount spent, prior to April 4. There will be no proration of fees for any days or times a child participant cannot attend.
How are students grouped?
We’ll split students up by grade bands – for example, grades PreK4-K, 1-2, 3-4.
How do you travel around DC for your field trips?
We may use our van, walk or utilize public transportation. We will always send permission slips home which will give you are exact means of transportation.
My child is really into STEM but has no experience with coding or robotics.
No worries, we will introduce many concepts to campers. Our curriculum is designed to teach and support students on all levels.
Can I schedule a tour?
We highly recommend attending an Open House. You’ll have the opportunity to meet our team and tour our space while your iGener participates in a hands-on activity. If the dates are not convenient, send us an email.
