Can you escape before time runs out? Step into daring scenarios—like a hijacked plane, an underground cave, or a locked playroom—without ever leaving the classroom! Using imagination, teamwork, and hands-on engineering, campers build straw rockets, parachutes, catapults, flashlights, and code robots to solve puzzles and beat the clock. Each day, they uncover the secrets behind escape rooms, then design their own epic challenges. By the final day, teams test each other with original escape rooms full of clever traps, twists, and brain-bending puzzles. Adventure and engineering collide—all in one classroom!
