Camp Invention is a program of the National Inventors Hall of Fame, a nonprofit organization dedicated to advancing the future of innovation. Camp Invention was designed 28 years ago to introduce children to the process of invention early on. Exposure to the invention process is valuable for all children because it inspires collaboration, encourages entrepreneurship, ignites creativity, exercises problem solving skills and builds an understanding that failure is a necessary point on the path to success. All programs are led by experienced local educators and grouped by grade level.
For nearly two decades, Camp Invention’s impact has been measured through independent evaluations. These evaluations have shown that participation in just one week of Camp Invention results in statistically significant short-term and long-term improvements in:
- Creativity
- STEM interest
- Collaboration
- Problem-solving skills
Each year, our education team collaborates with National Inventors Hall of Fame Inductees to develop a new, action-packed Camp Invention experience for your child. With our 2019 program, Supercharged™, campers will take on four exciting challenges, meet innovative superheroes and bring home newfound confidence!
