At Industry City in Brooklyn, CREA’s Summer Camp Session 2 June 22–26 transforms a former industrial space into a high-energy, hands-on STEAM playground for kids ages 4–12. Located at Industry City 253 36th Building 3 2nd Floor, Space C259 Brooklyn, NY, 11232 the program pairs motion-based adventure with a Design Lab curriculum so campers burn off energy while building real skills. Each day begins with freeplay and a warmup before a 60-minute CREA Adventure — a motion-sensor, climbing, and problem-solving course that threads through ten interactive zones. Campers encounter glowing puzzles, obstacle challenges, and team missions that channel the week’s Marine Mammals theme into games that mix physicality with curious observation. After that rush comes the STEAM Discovery Lab: two design blocks where kids code simple animations, prototype 3D models, and test eco-friendly inventions inspired by ocean science. The schedule is practical for families: early drop-off starts at 8:30 am; daily programming runs with a morning session, a lunch and outdoor play break, and afternoon labs, with half-day pickup options and a late pick-up at 4 pm. CREA provides laptops, tablets, maker tools, and craft supplies; families should bring a nut-free lunch, a snack, and a water bottle and dress kids for active play. What makes this camp stand out in New York’s summer scene is the hybrid approach. Few local programs so deliberately combine high-energy, sensor-driven play with guided design thinking and beginner coding. The small group cap (20 participants maximum) keeps activities hands-on and instructor-led, ideal for children to practice storytelling, iteration, and collaborative problem solving. Parents in the neighborhood appreciate the location’s accessibility and the balance of movement and screen-based creation. Beyond logistics, the camp also offers a gentle introduction to environmental stewardship: projects and challenges connect engineering basics to protecting marine life and creating sustainable solutions. Industry City itself is a converted industrial complex on Brooklyn’s waterfront with a culture of makers, so CREA’s lab feels rooted in the neighborhood’s creative rebirth. For families seeking an active, curiosity-focused week, this weeklong session gives kids a chance to climb, code, and build without sacrificing supervised structure. It’s summer camp engineered for inquisitive bodies and minds — practical, playful, and locally distinct. Parents should note the official meeting point is Industry City 253 36th Building 3 2nd Floor, Space C259 Brooklyn, NY, 11232 and that each cohort limits enrollment to twenty campers to preserve coaching attention. The program accepts children ages four through twelve and runs one- to five-day options depending on which session families choose. Staff-led rotations alternate high-energy movement games with low-tech maker time so children of varied attention spans stay engaged. Pack comfortable clothes, non-marking indoor shoes for climbing, and a notebook for sketching ideas.
