Send Your Teen To Camp … Maker Camp, That Is!

July 30, 2013 by FaveCrafts Leave a Comment

Summer can be long and boring when you’re not intellectually engaged. However, that doesn’t mean you have to sit in a classroom or stare at a textbook. If your teen is sick of the summer blahs, send them to Maker Camp. And don’t worry, they won’t have to miss a day of their summer job.

Maker Camp is a free virtual camp for crafty teenagers. No need to bring a sleeping bag or pack bug spray – all you need is a computer and an urge to create. This is the forth week of Maker Camp, but it’s far from over. From now until August 16th, teens can participate in crafty field trips, create innovative projects and join a daily Google+ hangout with fellow campers.

 

Here’s what’s happening this week:

Today- Learn to make and use a silkscreen for personalized designs

Wednesday – Build a device for colossal spin art fun and make a digital flipbook

Thursday- Animate anything with a handmade phenakistoscope

Friday – Hack with Hallmark field trip

Saturday and Sunday – LED throwies for beautiful lighting or party decoration

Don’t forget! Google+ hangouts take place every single day at 1 p.m. Central. All you have to do is head to the Maker Camp site to join.

 

Take advantage of the last few days of summer and get your teens crafting. There’s still plenty of time to get involved and get to work!

Crochet Snow Flakes

Snow flakes are usually in order around the holiday season. The snowflake I am showing here will take a few days to complete from start to finish. It requires glue and glitter to turn the yarn into a hardened snowflake that can hang freely. It is beyond spectacular when you are done. These are very […]
