Game World Builders: Nintendo-Inspired STEAM Camp Camp

Summer Tech Camp for Kids & Teens

About This Camp

Power up your creativity with a week of Nintendo-inspired STEAM fun! Jump into a week of Nintendo-themed fun where technology and creativity collide! Students will begin by creating stop-motion movies starring Mario and friends, learning how to plan, animate, and edit their own short films. As the week continues, they’ll shift into coding, building Nintendo-inspired games such as maze challenges, coin-catching adventures, and drawing with Pikachu. Each day introduces a new hands-on project that blends coding, animation, and storytelling while encouraging creativity and problem-solving. Basic reading skills are recommended. Bring a USB on the last day to save your projects. Nintendo is a trademark of Nintendo of America Inc. and not affiliated with this camp.
