Summer 2027 · STEM camps in Cupertino & San José / Los Gatos
The right camp for your child.
Coding, robotics, art and hands-on academics in Cupertino and San José / Los Gatos. Ages 5–14. Every camp takes complete beginners.
Pick the kind of week, not just the camp.
Every category runs all summer at both campuses. Start here if you know the subject but not the camp.
Every week builds on the last.
We track where each child gets to. The next week picks up from there instead of starting over — so a second week is always harder and more interesting than the first.
Instructors assess every child on day one and pitch projects to match. Beginners and returning campers sit side by side and both stretch.
How leveling worksEvery camp has its own levels and its own pace — you’ll find them on each camp’s page.
What a week actually looks like.
No stock photos. These are our campers, our rooms, our robots.
Is this the right camp for my child?
The four things parents phone us about, answered straight.
Does my child need any prior experience?
No. Every camp is designed to take a complete beginner, and most children arrive as one. Instructors assess each child in the first day or so and pitch the projects to match, so beginners and returning campers work side by side, each on something that stretches them.
What do you mean by a progressive curriculum?
We track where each child gets to, and the next week picks up from there rather than starting over. Projects change week to week, so a child who comes in June and again in July builds different things both times. It works a little like belt progression — children advance as they master concepts, not on a fixed calendar.
How many weeks should my child attend?
You can book as many weeks as you like. We suggest at least two to build a real foundation — one week is an introduction, two is where things start to click. Multi-week savings apply automatically in your cart.
Do the weeks need to be consecutive?
No. We keep track of your child’s progress, so they can take a break for a holiday and pick up where they left off. Booking June and August works just as well as two weeks in a row.
Cupertino and San José / Los Gatos.
Camp runs 9:00–4:00, check-in 9:00–9:15 AM. Extended care 8:30–9:00 and 4:00–6:00 at both.
What they say after Friday's showcase.
“We had a wonderful experience with the STEM4Kids summer camp! My child learned so much and really enjoyed the hands-on activities and learning opportunities. It was amazing to see how engaged and excited my child was throughout the camp. Shwetha was extremely responsive, quick to reply, and very approachable and reliable. Any questions or concerns were answered promptly, which made the whole experience very smooth and reassuring. Highly recommend STEM4Kids for parents looking for a fun, educational, and engaging summer camp for their kids”
“My 6 years old son enjoys this camp so much! The instructors partner him up with two 7 years old kids and he had a blast working with them. The main instructor is so kind to him. Overall a good balance between playing and learning environment here.”
“Fue un espacio de diversión y aprendizaje muy agradable para mi hijo, aprendió y practicó durante su summer camp, las actividades entretenidas y de gran interés para él. Su instructora: Shweta, muy amable, siempre nos comentaba sobre el avance de mi hijo y además nos mostraba videos de sus actividades, así como también permitieron que el nos mostrara lo que hacía durante el día. Su último día tuvieron una actividad lúdica de ver una película y compartir con sus amigos. El año entrante regresaremos por mas tiempo. Recomendado. It was a very enjoyable space for my son to have fun and learn; he learned and practiced a lot during the summer camp, and the activities were entertaining and highly engaging for him. His instructor, Shweta, was very kind; she kept us updated on his progress and showed us videos of the activities, and we were also able to see what he had been doing during the day. On his last day, they had a fun activity where they watched a movie and socialized with friends. We will be back next year for a longer period. Highly recommended.”
“Our son had a wonderful time at camp! He looked forward to going each day and was excited to share all about what he’d worked on with us at home. Communication with parents was also great and very much appreciated! So nice to be able to send him off each day knowing that he was in great hands and having a fun time!”
“This review is pending since last summer. My 9 year old son attended robotics summer camps here for several weeks. The camps were quite engaging and my kid spent his time productively here. Shweta hires young talent to teach kids. This brings in the latest knowledge, enthusiasm and energy to the class. Additionally, the camp provides a very safe space for kids. She is vigilant towards the classroom dynamics and makes the needful changes. We are returning back this summer for another round!”
“Our son he really enjoyed it, he came home happy each day and said he got to do things that he really enjoyed and mentioned the teachers are awesome ”
“Our son came home happy each day and said he got to do things he really loved. He mentioned the mentors by name!”
“My son really enjoyed the camp and had good experiences with considerate operators.”
“An excellent summer camp. My boys 6 and 10 did several weeks of Scratch and Python and learned so much. Friendly staff who adjusted to each child's needs.”
“This review is for how the owner handled a couple issues we encountered at the summer camp. She was so kind and so quick in handling everything, we truly appreciated. She's truly passionate about what she does. We appreciated her sincerity and kindness.”
“Very instructive for Maximilian. We are pursuing with programming at home after this camp.”
“This is an excellent summer camp. My boys 6 and 10 did several weeks of scratch and Python classes and learned a lot. They looked forward to each class which was amazing. The staff was very friendly and understanding. They adjusted the program per the child needs so there was never a boredom. We will be coming back for more.”
“My 9-year-old son had a great time and learned a lot.”
“My daughter, 6 years old, really enjoyed this program. Teacher was so kind!”
“My son absolutely loves the camp. The teachers there took good care of him and also taught him good technique to do the painting. He brought home a nice painting hanging on the walls of his room now.”
“For Lego robotics enthusiast this is a great camp. We really like the choice of location because kids get to go out during breaks! The camp itself is very impactful for students who have already done We Do Lego robotics and know some coding. Teachers are computer science undergrads which is a big plus !! And the owner herself is very flexible and always ready to answer questions and explain!!!”
“It was a really fun experience! My instructor Nithya was very kind and helpful and really helped me enjoy a class that I otherwise would have found boring.-”
“My son enjoyed learning the basics of programming, and the customer service was excellent. I would send him back in a heartbeat.”
“Camp is fun, teachers are kind to kids. Kids really love the camp.”
“I want to write about how much I appreciate Ms Shweta at STEM4kids in teaching my son Benjamin, the Python language. She really knows how to teach a programing language to kids and get their attention through online learning. She is super patience to her student and Ben has progressed so much from starting just a few weeks ago. I am super thrill and happy with his learning result. Prior to this I have enrolled my son Benjamin to Python with many attempts. We have tried a Coding Academy that advertised on YouTube. It was a terrible idea. Ben did not like to learn from that school. The internet connection was always troublesome and my son hated to attend the class every single week. We lost the money and the worst of all Ben could be frustrated and lost his interest in coding altogether. We are thankful of Ms Shweta’s teaching! You are The Great Python Teacher!”
“My son enjoyed learning the basics of programming. And the level of customer service was high. I would send him back to this camp to learn more.”
“My 16 year old enjoyed Python camp so much that he asked me to sign him up for subsequent weeks! He said he learned a lot. He's never said that about any camp before.”
“My kids have been attending various camps at Stem4Kids for the last 2 years and our experience has been great! Both kids have been attending coding camps and they have learnt a great deal. Great job entire Stem4kids team for creating such a positive learning and fun environment.”
“I think it was a awesome! I wana keep this program.”
“My 11 year old daughter enjoyed Python class very much.”
“I had initially enrolled my old son at stem4kids summer camp last summer in math and english program. I was very happy with the kind of overall enrichment they provide to the kids. By end of summer i ended up enrolling in their after school program and i could not be happier. They work on overall development of the kid including robotics, math, english, spanish, public speaking and so on. I highly recommend their program.”
“Fun place to be. My kids went to summer camp, they just loved it. I like there after school program also. Teachers are very care and dedicated.”
“Greatvplace to send kids. We started with summer camps and then to after school. Caring teachers and easy pickup and dropoff. To our surprise, kids do so much maths and lego building activities at school here, my daughter loves this place and look forward to going therr”
“Very nice afterschool with caring teachers. I am glad we switched our daughter from champions here, she is thoroughly enjoying here.”
“My both sons attended STEM4Kids this summer. I am very happy with the progress of my elder son where STEM4Kids has created a foundation / interest in Java programming. My son also attended Python summer classes last year. My younger son attended SCRATCH programming this summer and he loved it. Overall STEM4Kids was very helpful and provides a good platform for kids to create a foundation and interest in STEM.”
