STEM
(Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) is near and dear to my heart as a
graduate from WPI in Aerospace Engineering, Robotics Competition Judge,
Employee at a CAD (Computer Aided Design) Software Company, and Mother. Now
with two children ages 12 and 14 I am excited for all the opportunities they
have to pursue STEM education. When I learned about iDTech Camps I was beyond excited to share it with my kids
as it will give them a jump on their future. This post was sponsored by iD Tech Camps, but as always all opinions are my own.

When I was in High School there were limited
options for programming languages and robotics was not even in existence. I
remember taking Basic programming and wishing there was more I could do. Now
with programs like iD Tech Camps students ages 7-19 can learn to code,
design video games, produce videos, design Fortnite-inspired levels, mod
Minecraft, create with Roblox, engineer robots, model and print 3D characters,
work with AI and machine learning, build laptops, learn about cybersecurity,
and more! They have been holding STEM Camps for over 20 years in top
universities with over 150 locations conveniently held in Massachusetts and across the US.
The
iD Tech mission: Our mission is to create life-changing tech experiences that
embolden students to shape the future. There are 50 summer courses and year-round
Online Private Lessons to set up children for college, internships, and dream
careers.
My
son loves Minecraft and would love learning more. With small class sizes of
only 5-10 students per instructor everyone gets a high level of attention.
As a
kid that got involved in VEX Robotics in middle school Evan would love being in
a camp to improve their robot and the programming. Evan’s team has been so
successful that we are heading to VEX Robotics Worlds next week in Kentucky to
compete!
Sessions sell out quickly so do it today!
Plus
they make learning fun! Kids learn real-world skill and have a blast doing it! There
are raffles, dress-up days, gaming tournaments, pie-you-instructor Friday and
outdoor activities. The key is FUN! I have exposed my kids to fun STEM
activities since they were young, and it makes them more excited about science
and engineering!
THE SKY’S THE LIMIT WITH iD TECH!
