Big Hero Garage

June 27 - July 1

Just like the heroes from our favorite movie, in this "robot garage" theme camp, we will be building almost every kind of bot imaginable. "Bot Fighting is illegal"... but not at BrickLab360 camps. Our week will be filled with roller skating smash-droids, disk-launching automatons, tread-bots, and maybe, just maybe, our inflatable BFF will "pop" by.

Pirates Of Silicon Bay

The legend goes that a long time ago when the stormy waters of San Francisco Bay stretched as far south as Port Los Gatos, the seas were ruled by pirates... LEGO® Pirates!

LEGO® Masters' Class

Aug 8 - Aug 12

This is a course for the most experienced LEGO® Engineers. Has your camper visited the World of LEGO®? Have they emerged victorious from Battle Arena, or found their way back from "a galaxy far, far away"? Then they are ready to become a LEGO® Master! Each day of this camp will bring something new: Robotic arms, complex mechanisms, challenges like "Can a LEGO® build a LEGO®?, and large-scale systems like a multi-level train set with rail switches, track elevators, and curved rails constructed using straight pieces. How? With magic! ... and LEGO®. OK, mostly LEGO®. :)
