Given how much tech has invaded EVERYTHING these days, every kid should attend! I want to attend just so I can catch up!
great idea, how about older folk
My nephew would be SO into this. I will have to go read up on it before his mom makes summer plans for him.
so neat!
Love this! I'll have to check it out.
I think that this would be a great way to help kids receive an education that aren't the regular 4 year student. Some just don't function well in the regular classroom setting, but are very smart kids.
my daughter would be interested but she isnt old enough yet
My son was put into an advanced class for game design while still in high school and excelled at it. Unfortunately he was diagnosed with systemic lupus so a dream deferred .
so cool
Wow! These camps sound incredibly interesting. I wish they had these camps when my daughter was young. I developed and ran an experiential learning camp program with a different focus but the kids loved it!
very cool idea, kids need as much help to blossom as much as they can, great post
This is a great new activity to get kids involved in!
My child is better with electronics than I am LOL
These camps are incredible and I'm interested in one of my boys becoming involved. It seems this is an U.S. only company which hurts! I will be looking into their site for futher info and am glad that you wrote about them. Perhaps I will find a local equivilant or my son may stay some of his summer in the States with family to access this. Thanks for such a fantastic share.
This is the way of the future. Hopefully they will get out and move around a bit more too.
My stepsons would probably love this though being the children of an IT genius they already know how to make Apps. A part of me does wonder if maybe a little tennis or swimming should be added to the mix, no?
This is a neat idea!
Neat idea!
My 2 1/2 year will not need to go to a camp like this when he is older. He can do my iPad better then I can. He will grab my iPad and go mine and go watch his shows on the app.
This is great for kids. With technology growing daily, we have to keep this next generation rolling.
This camp is an excellent learning opportunity for kids in today's tech driven world. Nowadays, tech savvy people are in demand for the majority of jobs available.
