Inventor Summer Camps & Programs for Kids in the Bay Area

An exciting program for your young inventor! 

All inventors at Camp Brainy Bunch will participate in creative challenges that will help them flex their creative and entrepreneurial muscles. 

Note: This course has been rotated out of the schedule for Summer 2023.  We anticipate it returning in Summer 2024

Rising 1st-2nd graders

Young inventors will brainstorm, design and prototype a multitude of different products that will improve the world around us. Teamwork challenges will guide inventors to listen to others and grow from learning to consider multiple ideas and feedback. In the end, inventors will create an invention prototype complete with a magazine ad and a design for the final packaging.

Rising 3rd-4th graders

Inventors will create a product that begins with the design phase and moves on to prototyping, market research, and finally to the elevator pitch. In addition to creating a product prototype for the future, your young visionary will also pick up some fundamentals of business, economics, and advertising in this fun (if not profitable) week of product development!

Rising 5th-6th graders

Our oldest inventors will create a product from beginning to end: starting with the design phase, moving on to prototyping, marketing, packaging, and finally writing and delivering a pitch to investors! In addition to creating a product prototype for the future, your young visionary will also learn some fundamentals of business, economics, and advertising in this exciting week of product development.
