Dr. K’s Inventors Lab
Summer Camp
Build, Test & Create
Aug 10 to 13 (9 a.m. to 3 p.m.)
Comox Marina
Kids 7 – 12
Campers design, build, and experiment in this hands-on inventors lab. Kids mix science, art, and LEGO-style building as they test ideas, solve challenges, and redesign creations.
Where Art & Science Collide
In Dr. K’s lab we solve experiments each day through curiosity, problem-solving, and creativity.
We make colour changing lave flow down a volcano we build out of Lego and homemade play dough, we make art that appears in the sun (which kids take home). We have a lab record book were we write down or draw our observations.
Our Lab is a mix of science, art, and play!
Are you having this camp next summer? I want to come back!

(What is the Lab like?)
Step into Dr. K’s Lab—a week where art and science collide in the best possible way. Campers mix, build, test, and create their way through hands-on experiments, surprising reactions, and creative challenges that feel like a lab day went slightly off-script (on purpose).
They’ll take home projects and creations all week long—and leave with that “I can figure things out” confidence that shows up long after camp is over.

Kids Get Mail!
Kids get mail before camp inviting them into that weeks theme and the world we create at Kaper Kids' Camps.
Adventure Time!
We may begin with relaxing art but we don't stay that way! Scavenger hunts, obstacle courses, mystery adventures are the daily goal!
We loved Crystal’s Van Gogh camp last summer. Crystal is a fun and enthusiastic instructor! She is organized, creative and has lots of cool art supplies to use.
We loved solving the mysteries and playing outside. Thanks for one of the best summer camps ever!

Things You Might Be Wondering
How Much does it Cost?
A week of camp is $260
Why do you only take 12 Kids per week?
Groups are intentionally kept small to support focus, connection, and collaboration. This allows for more individual guidance and a smoother experience.
What if my child is anxious, shy, or needs extra support?
Many kids thrive here because the structure is clear, the activities are purposeful, and the group stays small. If your child benefits from specific support (e.g., transitions, sensory needs, anxiety), please contact me before camp so we can plan for success. crystal@kaperkids.com.
What does a typical day look like?
Each day includes a mix of hands-on making, puzzle/mystery challenges, movement breaks, and guided collaboration. Kids rotate between activities so they stay engaged, have time to reset, and always know what’s coming next.
My child has allergies — what do we do?
If your child has allergies or dietary needs, please include details during registration. I can accommodate many common needs.
As an allergy parent myself, I understand the concern of sending your kid to a new environment. Please email me at crystal@kaperkids.com ahead of time.
What should my child bring/ Wear?
Please send:
A water bottle
Lunch + snacks
Weather-appropriate outdoor gear – we are outside rain or shine
Sunscreen – please apply before attending and we will reapply at lunch time
- Clothes that can get messy or stained we often do art or do experiments
Meet CRYSTAL
I’ve always loved kids who think a little differently—probably because I’m one of them.
I created Kaper Camps to give kids a place to not only have adventures but to sneak math and reading into their summer time fun. Without them even realizing they are still learning - All Summer Long!
