At Challenge Island, kids won't find themselves stuck in front of a screen like other after-school activities. Instead, they are encouraged to work in teams to use their imagination, think critically, and problem-solve while having fun. Each Challenge Island experience includes a treasure-chest full of low-tech supplies that kids can use to come up with creative solutions to various tasks. 

STEAM Teams, or Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math, are the focus of every Challenge Island experience. Kids can work together to tackle age-appropriate challenges, while learning the fundamentals of STEAM. This unique approach to after-school learning has been recognized by parents and educators alike. 

At Challenge Island, your child will have the opportunity to explore new skills and interests in a fun and engaging way. They will get to use their imagination, work in teams, and problem-solve in order to come up with creative solutions to various tasks. Each Challenge Island experience is designed to teach the fundamentals of STEAM in an exciting and interactive way.

The STEAM exercise was incredibly interesting, and the kids loved it! It helped the teachers help the kids who needed clarity on what the challenge was since it was organized and the objectives were defined and applied.

For all kids of various ages, Challenge Island offers both educational and adventurous activities. Children learn in a fun way by developing their creativity and imagination via the hands-on activities.
