Maker Camp 2026 is a work in progress. Even for a three-day camp, you need loads of ideas. Right now, the two coolest ideas are the balance board and scrap wood catapult. (I bought a box of hammers last year to smash geodes.) We’ve made balance boards at Camp before. Let the kids decorate their boards: sharpies, washi tape, paint, etc. We used PVC pipe; however we’ve used pool noodles, too. Pool noodles are easier for younger kiddos. I have built the simple catapults with a small group. These are a huge hit. I just added Refraction of Light, DIY Phone Speaker, and Galaxy Jars. Does it look eclectic? It is. I never know just what will resonate. I also need to reorder the activities. Do small projects early and lead up to bigger, fun activities or builds.
