Best Kids Summer Camps San Francisco Near Me

4worldlovers: Think of Doodles as an incubator for kids where they grow their creative intelligence through making. Start with basic materials and create something fun, functional or extraordinary.

Life is an experience… and that’s how camp should be. We have 3 simple rules: Be safe, be kind, and have fun! Roll up your sleeves, grab a tool and let’s make something intentional.

Each weekly theme offers different activities, projects and challenges. As long as it’s safe, the answer is yes.

In the morning, design the user experience for our Playscapes DIY carnival theme in the 3D Art Lab and start mocking-up a giant game of mousetrap in the Maker Lab.

In the afternoon, play outdoors during Sports & Games then make slime in the ‘X’ Lab. And this is only Monday!

A doodle is an open-ended creation that begins with a single point and then moves in a spontaneous fashion, connecting other dots along the way.

It begins with no particular outcome and goes where the mind takes it. This creative process is our inspiration.

Celsius and Beyond’s science camps provide youth in grades 1-9 with an opportunity to learn, grow, and play while exploring scientific concepts and skills. Our summer camps for kids are unique. Our scientists instructors bring their expertise and love of science to create fun, educational camps that foster curiosity and confidence. Our weeklong deep dives distill the greatest hits of college-level science courses into activities designed just for kids.


We are proud to offer the San Francisco bay area’s best science camps since 2007, which inspire kids to ask questions about the world around them and point them toward the tools they’ll need to investigate. There is plenty of time for questions to allow them to follow their curiosity wherever it leads them. Hands-on experiments, demonstrations, and projects bring new concepts to life as students work collaboratively to solve problems. Each camp, regardless of theme, strives to equip campers with the imagination and confidence to think creatively and strategize in their missions while developing critical thinking skills.
