My 12-year-old son had a great time here. He was able to explore the world of tech, at his own pace, without too many limitations on what he could learn and do. He really enjoyed the freedom the counselors gave the kids and worked all week to create a working robot. He also had access to a 3D printer, which he really enjoyed. My only quibble is on the day of production, he needed to access the apple store to download a controller. This could have been more smoothly communicated than on the last day of camp.
