Brooklyn Robot Foundry - Brownstone Brooklyn

The Foundry’s summer circuits program is a full-week, hands-on robotics camp for rising Kindergarten through 5th grade students (in NYC locations). Each week features a distinct theme (e.g., woodland robots, space robotics, retro-inspired builds), and every day children engage in building their own robot, customizing it, doing crafts, playing games, and spending time outside. No prior robotics experience is required—the goal is to spark creative thinking, problem-solving, and confidence through fun engineering!

When on school break, check out their Foundry Funday camps. These full-day programs for K - 5th graders are filled with robot-making, movement, creativity, and laughter. Students have an awesome time building the featured robot of the day as well as participating in all of the additional activities. They’ll play games, do crafts, enjoy free play, and gett in many movement breaks! The sessions are all about having fun. Again, no previous robot experience required.
