Camp Culture
The X Kids Tech Camp focuses on building minds through the creative
use of electronics and organic learning. We supply the latest
technology, from iPads and laptops to Lego Mindstorms. Every part of
our program is geared towards the future.
The X Kids walk away with the power to know that they can do anything!
Classes
Robotics
With the guidance of our robotics
specialists, campers learn the importance of cooperation, teamwork and
leadership by building and programming robots as part of a team. Our
robotics program stresses the importance of learning organically, by
discovery and experimentation.
Chess
Learning
chess challenges one to think critically, strengthening reason and
logic skills. No matter what age or ability level you have already, The
X Kids has an enormous curriculum and near infinite challenges to help
you along the path to becoming a chess master.
Game Design & Mobile App Creation
Multimedia
Fusion makes learning game design incredibly easy and fun! During
their first week campers will make their own Mario or Pokemon Game.
Once campers have mastered the basics they can move on to making any
kind of game they want, or if they prefer they can design mobile apps.
At the end of the week campers can bring in their updated mobile
devices and have their game or app put onto it.
The X Kids camps are great for all kids, ages 4-16.
