What is Snapology?

Snapology teaches STEAM concepts to children through hands-on, interactive play, using LEGO® bricks and other fun tools. Our programs are designed to promote teamwork, inspire creativity, and gain confidence in STEAM (often robotics and engineering), while not even realizing it's educational!

Snapology offers After-School Enrichment programs, Preschool Enrichment, Camps, Workshops, Scouting Events, In-school Field Trips, Special Needs programs, Senior programs, and Birthday parties.
!Registration for the 2023 Half Day Summer Camp Season is Open!
This year, we are offering half-day camps at Lowe Park Arts and Environment Center (Marion) throughout Summer. Kids will have a blast making new friends and tackling S.T.E.A.M. projects with Snapology all summer long.

Mining & Building

Travel to the Nether with Snapology, but watch out for those creepers! Come join us as we bring Minecraft® to life using LEGO® bricks. Create your own world, including animals, creepers and your very own Minecraft® character.

June 19th - 23rd (AM Session)

Super Structures

Does your builder enjoy designing beautiful buildings or functional spaces for their mini-figures? If so, this program is the perfect space for your young architect to sharpen their design and building skills! All buildings, from the Empire State Building to the house next door, started as an idea in an architect’s head. Students will learn how to take an idea from their head and turn it into a building in the real world. They will be guided through the building process, from creating a floor plan to disaster-proofing the structure, so that they will be able to create the next best thing in LEGO® architecture!

June 26th - 30th (AM Session)

Snapology Ninjas

Your sensei needs you! Design a new dojo for Snapology made from LEGO® bricks and train your men to battle with the best. Go through ninja training and earn your black belt, Snapology-style. Get ready to have fun and become a Master Ninja.

July 5th - 7th (AM Session)

Jedi Masters

In this program, your youngling will explore the galaxy with their master building skills and our intergalactically-focused curriculum. Motivated to become Jedi like the heroes in the movies, students will learn to concentrate on mastering the Force, appreciating the use of teamwork to build battle drones and AT-Walkers, and if their skills are up to par, make their very own lightsaber and use it in battle! May the force be with your young Padawan as they rise through the Jedi ranks!

July 10th - 14th (AM Session)

Pokemania

Come join Snapology for Pokemania. Students will build and explore the world of Pokemon as they create their own gyms, battles, and even their very own generation of Pokemon. Children will also learn about real world science as they learn about the habitats of the Pokemon. Your child will have a blast becoming the best Pokemon trainer ever.

July 17th - 21st (AM Session)

Snapology Movie Favorites

Bring your favorite animated movies to life using LEGO bricks in the super-fun camp. Movies such as the Toy Story, How to Train Your Dragon , Lion King, OnWard, Frozen and Trolls will be recreated using imagination and LEGO® bricks. Don’t miss out.

July 24th - 28th (AM Session)

Movie Making (Superheroes) 

Create an amazing superhero-filled movie using stop motion animation, LEGO® bricks, and your favorite superheroes and villains! Your student will work with a partner to create a superhero tale, complete with a unique set, characters, and plot line. Our students will learn how to produce all aspects of their own movie, including dialogue, sound effects, and special effects. At the end of the program, your little movie maker will debut their film to the class and upload it to Snapology's YouTube account to share with your family and friends for years to come!  Ready, set, action!

July 31st - Aug 4th (AM Session)

Responsive Robotics with Cubelets

In this challenge-focused program, your student will begin to develop their computational thinking skills by playing with modular, robotic cubes known as Cubelets®! Imagine this - every way your student snaps the magnetic cubes together creates a unique robot, but what really matters is how they figure out the perfect robot recipe to solve a challenge. They will work in small teams to figure out how to create energy-efficient lighthouses, racer bots, maze-solvers, goofy animals, and so much more! Is your student ready to play and tinker all day with Snapology?

Aug 7th - 11th (AM Session)

Creature Creator

In Snapology's Creature Creator program, your animal lover will build a variety of robotic creatures that respond to each of their programmed commands. While working with a partner to solve various challenges, your student will be taught how to effectively utilize sensors, how different mechanical components work in their robots, and how programming is a challenging but rewarding skill that they can master with just a little practice. We will support them in the development of their coding and building skills and inspire them with creative building challenges. It's going to be a RAWR-ing good time!
