STEM Summer Camps in Connecticut: Science, Coding, and Engineering Fun for Kids
Got a STEM-loving Connecticut kid? At these science, engineering, and coding summer camps across Connecticut, kids ranging in age from preschoolers to teens will have a chance to learn STEM principles, including environmental research, 3-D printing, Minecraft modding, and more. These camps keep problem-solving skills sharp over the summer, but for kids, these hands-on science camps are just plain fun.
