At Neuron Garage, campers get hands-on, repurposing their recycling to solve fun, weekly engineering challenges. Through the process, they will make new friends, experience the joy of exploring what they can do with their own hands, and develop a growth mindset. Each week presents a new challenge to keep the engagement and effort high, and another opportunity for your children to practice the tools that will help them build a growth mindset. Our program is designed to help your child develop a growth mindset which we believe is the most powerful skill a child can have for tackling the challenges and opportunities they'll encounter in life. Each week, Campers are taught and practice our simple frameworks that lead to the belief that their abilities are not fixed, but can be developed through good strategies, effort, and feedback. With a growth mindset, your child will take on bigger challenges in life and stick with those challenges longer, unlocking their full potential. Days at Neuron Garage are a careful balance between individual and group activity, along with time for relaxation, reflection, and play. We take time each day, and extra time on Monday mornings, to establish a sense of community and make sure that each camper feels connected. At Neuron Garage, children learn and have opportunities to practice our growth mindset framework: Think – Build – Learn. Guided games, group discussions, and individual coaching throughout the week reinforce this process, helping children understand where they are in it — along with their emotional state — and how to move forward.
