Journey to STEAM: Where Kids Build, Code, and Create a Summer to Remember

This summer, give your child a camp experience that sparks joy, builds confidence, and inspires endless curiosity. Journey to STEAM offers hands-on, project-based camps for kids ages 6–12 who love to build, design, invent, and explore. With eight locations across the Portland metro and Southwest Washington, families can find a camp near them that fits their schedule—and lights up their child’s imagination.

Journey to STEAM blends creativity and innovation through a mix of engineering, robotics, design, and STEM exploration. Campers don’t just watch science happen—they make it happen, one LEGO® brick at a time.

What Sets Journey to STEAM Apart?

While many summer camps focus on fun, Journey to STEAM adds depth with skill-building experiences kids love:

  • LEGO®-Powered Engineering: Every camp centers around exciting builds and real-world problem-solving using LEGO® as a powerful learning tool.
  • Hands-On Robotics and Coding: Campers explore motors, sensors, and programming using LEGO® Spike Essentials in ways that are fun, accessible, and empowering.
  • STEM That Feels Like Play: Campers experiment with scientific concepts like energy, motion, and buoyancy through hands-on challenges and exploration.
  • Team-Based Learning: Most builds are done in pairs or small teams, encouraging collaboration, communication, and problem-solving together.
  • Creative Confidence: Kids are invited to present their builds to peers—building public speaking skills and pride in their work.
  • Inspiring Instructors: Led by passionate, experienced educators who know how to make learning fun, meaningful, and memorable.

6 Unique Camp Experiences to Choose From


Each Journey to STEAM camp offers a different theme, so families can choose the one that fits their child’s interests—or sign up for more than one!

LEGO® Mechanical Engineers
Campers explore gears, pulleys, and levers as they build real working mechanisms and machines. It’s the perfect blend of invention and imagination.

LEGO® Coding and Robotics
Using LEGO® Spike Essentials, kids build robots for outdoor adventures, learning foundational engineering and basic programming skills.

LEGO® Architects
From castles to bridges, campers explore structural integrity and architectural styles as they design and build their own imaginative structures.

LEGO® Robotics for Beginners: Advanced Challenges
Designed for ages 10–12, this camp takes robotics to the next level with more complex challenges, sensor integration, and higher-level programming.

LEGO® Inventors
Creativity runs wild as campers invent new toys for a LEGO® toy factory, applying the engineering design process to build things like racecars and spinning tops.

LEGO® STEM Explorers
Campers engage in science experiments, hands-on building, and crafts while learning about energy, motion, buoyancy, and lift.

Each camp blends fun and learning in a way that keeps kids engaged and inspired all day long.
