🤖💡 That’s a wrap on Invention Dimension Week! 🚀

What a FUN week of creating, experimenting, building, and getting a little messy! Our campers spent the week putting their imaginations to work and discovering that inventing can happen anywhere!

🔧 We kicked off our STEM challenge by designing and building ziplines and testing out our creations!

🤖 We visited the community center to build robots, then used recycled paper scraps to create our very own paper robots—each one completely unique!

🧪 We got our science on with Elephant Toothpaste and erupting Mentos! There were lots of big reactions, big smiles, and plenty of “WHOA!” moments!

🎬 We watched Meet the Robinsons, which was the perfect movie for our week of inventing, imagining, and thinking about the future!

🍓🥨 And of course, we couldn’t have Invention Dimension without EDIBLE ROBOTS! Our campers got to design, build, and then eat their inventions!

🔬 We also had an awesome day exploring OMSI, getting hands-on with even more science and discovery.

💦🌳 And we made sure to balance all that brain power with some serious FUN at our Kids’ Fun Day with the splash pad and playground!

It was a week full of curiosity, creativity, teamwork, problem-solving, and SO much fun! We loved watching our campers turn simple ideas into something completely their own. ❤️

Until our next adventure, little inventors! 🤖🚀💡

Elephant toothpaste anyone!? 🐘

Huge thank you to the Camas Public Library for letting us come have a library day today! The kids loved having Coach Gigi read and sing with them.

Thanks for hosting us OMSI. We had a blast! Until next time!

What an incredible way to wrap up Super Mario Week!

This week was packed with adventure from start to finish! We cooled off at the **splash pad**, paddled across the water **kayaking**, and even enjoyed a trip to the **movie theater**.

Our campers got creative by making **Mario mustaches**, **Piranha Plants**, and their very own **Mario Kart steering wheels**. On STEM day, they put their engineering skills to the test by building **ziplines to rescue Princess Peach from Bowser's Castle**. And for Fun with Food, everyone decorated delicious **Golden Coin Cookies** worthy of collecting!

Of course, no Mario week would be complete without exciting games like **Mario Kart Racing**, **Chain Chomp Chase**, **the Ultimate Bowser's Castle Obstacle Course**, and so much more!

Watching our campers laugh, create, problem-solve, and cheer each other on has made this week one to remember.

**Here's to an amazing Super Mario Week... and on to next week's adventure: *Invention Dimension!* We can't wait to see what our young inventors create!**

Today, we pause to remember and honor the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. ❤️🤍💙

At Shape NW, we are grateful for the freedoms we enjoy because of their courage, service, and selflessness. This Memorial Day, we remember the heroes who are no longer with us and hold close the families who continue to carry their legacy forward.

As we spend time with loved ones this weekend, may we also take a moment to reflect, remember, and give thanks.

Wishing our Shape NW families a safe, meaningful, and love-filled Memorial Day. 🇺🇸
