How Piaget Academy Uses STEM to Make Summer Camp Fun and Smart

At Piaget Academy in Orlando, we believe learning doesn’t stop when school ends. That’s why our summer camp blends play and STEM activities — so children can explore, discover, and learn through fun.
But what is STEM? And how can it be fun?
Let us explain.

What is STEM?

STEM may sound like a big word, but it’s simple and exciting. It stands for:
  • Science
  • Technology
  • Engineering
  • Math
These four areas help children think, create, and solve problems while having fun.

Why STEM Matters for Kids

STEM teaches children to:
  • Ask questions
  • Try new ideas
  • Work in teams
  • Use logic and imagination
These are not just “school skills” — they’re life skills. Learning STEM early builds confidence, curiosity, and a love for learning that lasts a lifetime.

How Piaget Academy Makes STEM Fun in Summer Camp

We’ve created special activities that mix STEM with play. Here are some examples of what your child might experience:

Science Explorers

  • Make a volcano with baking soda
  • Grow plants from seeds in our garden
  • Learn about bugs and animals on nature walks
  • Try fun experiments like “dancing raisins” or slime making

Technology for Little Hands

  • Use tablets for storytelling and drawing
  • Learn shapes and colors through interactive games
  • Build simple machines with everyday objects
  • Explore “coding without screens” using arrows and puzzles

Engineering Builders

  • Build bridges using popsicle sticks
  • Create towers from blocks, cups, and foam
  • Design simple mazes and test toy cars
  • Learn to fix and improve their own creations

Math Made Easy

  • Count snacks, toys, or steps during games
  • Play number bingo and shape hunts
  • Use math in cooking activities (how many scoops?)
  • Solve puzzles that sharpen thinking

STEM + Creativity = More Fun!

We also connect STEM with art and imagination. Kids might:
  • Act in a fun classroom play that brings stories or science ideas to life
  • Paint what they see in a microscope
  • Create a story about a robot they designed
  • Sing songs about the planets or animals
  • Build their dream playground using boxes and tape
STEM at Piaget isn’t just smart — it’s creative and joyful.
