Curated Classes & Activities for Children Kidiaree

Hamleys Play Summer Camp | The STEM Discovery Studio

A vibrant, interactive space where children engage in imaginative play through themed zones, games, and hands-on activities.

About the Workshop

Welcome to the STEM Discovery Studio! 

What happens when curiosity meets real-world science? Discovery. This week, children explore the natural world, engineering, and technology through hands-on experiments and builds that bring ideas to life. No theory overload—just five days of making, testing, and understanding how things work, while building creativity, curiosity, and environmental awareness.

Every session includes 1 hour of hands-on STEM experimentation with Little Thinkers Lab  followed by 1 hour of free play at Hamleys Play, with all activity materials thoughtfully included- because great learning deserves a great celebration!

How the Week Unfolds

  • Day 1 — Beavers & Their Habitat: It begins with nature’s engineers. Children learn how beavers build dams, then create their own model and experiment with water flow to see how it all works.
  • Day 2 — Bioplastics — Eco Suncatcher: From problem to possibility. Children explore plastic waste and sustainable alternatives, then create an eco-friendly suncatcher that blends science with creativity.
  • Day 3 — Squishy Bot: Soft, fun, and full of learning. Children build a playful robot using dough, LED lights, and a buzzer, discovering the basics of electronics along the way.
  • Day 4 — Wind Technician: Power from the air. Children build a working windmill and experiment with wind energy to understand how it can lift and move objects.
  • Day 5 — Corals & Pearls — Underwater Exploration: The grand finale beneath the surface. Children explore marine life, extract a pearl, and create their own coral reef model—bringing together science, discovery, and creativity.

What Your Child Will Take Away 

A child who once saw nature and machines as separate will leave this week understanding how they connect. Scientific curiosity, environmental awareness, basic electronics, engineering thinking, hands-on problem-solving, and the satisfaction of building things that truly work.
