Joining a multidisciplinary STEM camp can be a great way for children, middle school students and teens to develop both their left and right brain. STEM stands for science, technology, engineering and mathematics, and these camps offer a variety of activities that cover all four of these topics. Here are the top three benefits of joining a STEM camp like this.

First, a STEM camp can help children and teens develop their creative and innovative thinking. By engaging in activities such as design thinking, robotics, coding, and digital arts, children and teens can learn to think outside the box and find creative solutions to complex problems.

Second, a STEM camp that includes digital arts and coding can be very engaging for children and teens who may otherwise not be interested in mathematics.

By introducing them to topics like digital animation and video game design, they can learn that technology also applies to fields like digital arts. Finally, by introducing video game design early on, children can learn about the process of creating a game logic and thinking about the end user. This can be much more fun and engaging than a boring class on design thinking, since it is more hands-on.
