About this Event
Build more than a computer this summer—build confidence, creativity, and your child’s inner genius. This highly curated, small-group program gives children the opportunity to design, build, and program their very own computer using a modified Piper Computer Kit—and take home all hardware and materials.
Program Structure: 3 Phases
This program is delivered in three distinct phases, each building on the last to create a complete learning journey.
Phase 1 focuses on understanding computers through storytelling, history, and human anatomy analogies.
Phase 2 is hands-on hardware assembly combined with creative UX/UI design through arts and crafts.
Phase 3 introduces software creation using Raspberry Pi, where children bring their computer to life.
An optional fourth phase is available for extended learning through game-based software training.
Each phase is designed to stand on its own, but together they provide a full, immersive experience from concept to creation.
Pricing
Each phase is $550 plus processing fees.
Families may choose to register for individual phases or request to enroll in all three phases upfront via email. Full-program registration is reviewed on a case-by-case basis due to limited capacity.
What Your Child Will Experience
This hands-on program goes far beyond traditional camps by blending STEM, creativity, and emotional intelligence in a way that is engaging, age-appropriate, and completely screen-free. Children will learn how computers work through intuitive, real-world analogies, build and design their own device, and bring it to life through coding and creative exploration.
Why This Program Is Different
There is no passive screen time—every moment is intentional, tactile, and designed to build both technical skills and confidence. The curriculum is structured to prevent burnout while helping children regulate emotions and navigate complex concepts. With a maximum of five students per cohort, each child receives personalized attention in a premium, intimate learning environment.
Materials, Take-Home & Parent Access
All hardware, paint materials, equipment, software, and tools are fully provided as part of the program. Children will complete their own build and take home their finished computer and all materials. Grandparents and nannies are welcome to attend as caregivers for children who may feel more comfortable with additional support. For added peace of mind, there is an active nanny cam throughout each session, and parents will have live access to view their child in real time.
