Build Your Minecraft World – in Real Life!

Get ready for a week of creativity, design, and pixel-perfect fun at our Build Your Minecraft Figures summer camp for kids ages 6–8! This hands-on camp brings the world of Minecraft off the screen and into real life through 3D design and printing.

Campers will transform their favorite Minecraft characters, mobs, and tools into real-world creations using colorful 3D pens and beginner-friendly digital tools like TinkerCad. Whether it’s designing a custom creeper, building a sword, or creating their own pixel-style figure, every camper becomes the architect of their blocky universe.

Each day focuses on a different part of the Minecraft world — from character building and tools to terrain and mobs — giving kids a fun, structured way to explore digital design while staying deeply connected to a game they love.

With guidance from experienced instructors, students will also get to see their creations printed on real 3D printers. Some projects may be printed outside of class time and returned later as special surprises!

This camp is perfect for young builders who love Minecraft, creativity, and making things with their own hands. It’s an exciting journey from digital dreams to physical creations — where imagination, design, and engineering all come together, one block at a time!

Typical Day Schedule:

  • 9:00–9:30: Student Arrival
  • 9:30–10:45: Creative Activity Session (working with 3D pens or digital design software)
  • 10:45–11:00: Short Snack Break
  • 11:00–11:45: Continued Project Work (building on morning activities)
  • 11:45–12:45: Lunch Break
  • 12:45–14:00:Games and Outdoor Activities (weather permitting, walk to the playground)
  • 14:00–14:15: Snack Break
  • 14:15–15:30: Final Project Session (exploring 3D printed results, group discussions, finishing touches)
  • 15:30–16:00: Pickup Time

Our camp is more than just an educational experience—it’s a supportive, playful community where young creators develop essential life skills like teamwork, innovation, and persistence, all while having fun!

What to Bring

All your child needs is a water bottle, snacks, and lunch—we provide everything else!

Safety and Well-being

We place the highest priority on the safety and well-being of our campers. Our instructors are carefully trained to ensure a secure and supportive environment at all times. We follow strict safety protocols, particularly regarding the proper use of 3D pens and printers. All staff members are equipped with basic first-aid training and prepared to manage any health-related concerns swiftly and effectively. Our camp setting encourages inclusivity, ensuring every child feels welcome, respected, and confident to participate fully.

What Your Child Will Gain

At our Minecraft-themed camp, your child will develop far more than just cool creations. They’ll walk away with real-world skills and personal growth:

  • Design Thinking: Kids will learn how to turn digital ideas into physical objects — planning, refining, and bringing their own creations to life.
  • Spatial and Visual Reasoning: Through 3D modeling and printing, campers sharpen their understanding of shapes, scale, and symmetry in fun and intuitive ways.
  • Problem-Solving Skills: From figuring out how to build a stable creeper to fixing a design that won’t print — every challenge sparks creative solutions.
  • Confidence Through Creation: There’s nothing like holding something you designed and built yourself. It’s empowering — and builds pride.
  • Teamwork and Sharing: Campers will share tools, collaborate on ideas, and celebrate each other’s designs, learning how to give and receive feedback.
  • Persistence and Patience: Designing and printing takes time and iteration — kids learn to troubleshoot, adapt, and keep going when things don’t work the first time.
