AEROSPACE4KIDS.COM, LLC

AEROSPACE4KIDS.COM, LLC, started as a Rutgers Cooperative Extension, 4-H Youth Development program. Based in Somerset County, N.J. The original program called "Blue Sky Below my Feet", focused on aviation education, and was offered to area schools as a 45-minute hands on program.  The program was so successful that it went from being offered as a Saturday event into a week long, hands on, summer aviation camp.

Aviation education involves using science and math, which we use as building blocks to help reinforce many of the N.J. core curriculum standards. We use S.T.E.A.M. activities that promote science technology, engineering, art & math.

Our specialty camp challenges each individual student's unique level, as well as sharpens their math and science skills. No summer learning loss will take place here! We encourage reading, practice memorizing the phonetic alphabet, all while having FUN. Our goal is to empower the youth of tomorrow to establish F.L.I.G.H.T. values. Fearlessness, Leadership, Imagination, Gratitude, Honesty, and Tenacity.

Collaborating with experts in the field of aerospace education with the Flying W Airport, and the Young Eagles, the program has grown into a fun, action packed week. Students have the opportunity to fly with a "Young Eagle", build rockets, airplanes, and explore careers in education.

Students also have the opportunity to sample the camp program by participating in one of our Aerospace Days which are offered on select Saturdays throughout the year.

All the programs are held at the Flying W Airport, in Medford, NJ. The aerospace camp/days are taught by a N.J. certified teacher.

Enrollment is limited to 24 students per week. 

Please note: If your child has an IEP, or a one-on-one we need to be told in advance. We will then determine if additional staff support is needed to ensure your child has a positive experience.  Please do not wait until the morning of camp to let us know this.
