My 5 & 6 year old can hardly wait to head to camp each morning. They have such a great time designing and building with the blocks and interacting with the teachers. The staff are all very friendly!

1-4 pm Monday – Thursday | In this camp we will be using the LEGO® Spike™ Prime robotics kits. In this space-inspired program, your learner will explore the basics of robotics in space while digging into their favorite parts of the Star Wars movies – the machines! While working with a partner to complete various challenges, your student will be taught how to effectively utilize sensors, how different mechanical components work in their robots, and how programming is a challenging but rewarding skill that they can master with just a little practice. We will support them in the development of their coding and building skills and inspire them with creative building challenges based on the movies they love. | 7-14 years |

Frequently Asked Questions
How far in advance do I need to reserve a spot?
We recommend that you reserve your spaces now. Last summer our camps sold out FAST and we anticipate the same happening this year. We had a long waiting list!
What days and times do you offer?
At the Middletown location we only offer Moonday -Thursday camps from 1-4 pm, We also have acamps in Derry Township, E-Twon and Lancaster with a verity of times including morning (9-12), afternoon (1-4) and full day (9-4) sessions. Mix and match to suit your family’s needs. Many are Monday through Friday. For more informaiton check out the Sumemr Camp Pages at other locations.
Do you provide lunch?
We do not provide lunch. If you are staying for a Full Day camp you will need to pack a NUT FREE non-perishable lunch (or in a cooler lunch box) for your child.
Do you provide snacks?
We do not provide snacks, but we do take a snack break in both the AM and PM camps.
We ask parents to send a NUT FREE non-perishable snack and water bottle for their child if they are attending a half-day camp.
If your child is attending a full day camp, we ask you to pack two NUT FREE non-perishable snacks, a NUT FREE non-perishable lunch, and a water bottle.
What is your policy on foods with NUTS?
We are a nut restrictive camp. This means that we request all students to bring only NUT FREE food into our camps.
However, we cannot guarantee that we are NUT FREE. Occasionally students do show up with products in their snack or lunch that contain nuts.
Our staff is trained to isolate any products that we discover which contain nuts.
Students are required to wash their hands immediately after eating with special attention to anyone who had products that contained nuts.
If your child has a nut allergy, we encourage you to disclose that to staff before they attend any programs so that we can take extra precautions to try to eliminate exposure to any nut oils or products.
Do I have to register for a full week?
Yes, all camps are for the full week, Monday through Thursday or Monday through Friday depending on location.
We do not have partial week registration at this time.
Can my child take the project home?
Snapology camps are experience-based camps where students use high-end technology such as tablets, laptops, drones, LEGO® robotics, LEGO® Technic engineering bricks and componets, and LEGO® creative bricks in hands-on projects.
Unless specifically stated in the camp description as having a make-n-take component, children do not keep the projects they build.
Our goal is to provide experiences that are fun, interactive, and educational though play and experimentation using technology that students may not have access to at home.
Is there a waitlist if I can't reserve the times and days that I want?
When a session sells out, we will start a waitlist. People on the waitlist will be notified in order if/when a spot opens up. (Book early to avoid being on a waitllist!)
Do Snapology camps appeal to all ages?
One of the best things about Snapology is its wide appeal to children of all ages. We host a variety of camps for children from 6 years old to 14 years old.
Each camp lists the minimum age and a recommended maximum age based on the subject matter, but older students are welcome.
At the Lancaster Discovery Center, we offer a camp designed for younger students and a camp designed for older students each week. At third party locations we try to provide a mix of camps for different age ranges.
Can I extend the camp time?
Due to low demand last year, we will not offer extended care during the 2023 Summer Camp season.
