Each week at Summer STEAM camp, we will concoct and construct hands-on experiments and STEAM (Science Technology Engineering Art and Math) projects that delight a child’s sense of wonder. We foster community, promote personal growth and stimulate summer learning with discussions, outdoor play, art projects, gardening, swimming and more! Swim instruction is two days a week at the Greater Bergen County YMCA. Daily outdoor activities and field trips each session will help campers become more aware of STEAM projects right here in New Jersey.
Camp begins on July 1 and runs on two-week sessions through August 23. Before and aftercare is also available for those in need of extended care hours.
