Biz Kids Academy is a place where kids can learn, grow, and have fun while preparing for real-world situations in a safe and supportive environment. We’re so lucky to have them in our community.

Because we made a commitment to the city of Miami when we opened: quality education at a price every family can access — not just families who can write a $1,200/week tuition check. Other tech and business camps in Miami charge $1,000+ for a single week. We charge $999 for six. That’s not a discount or a sale. That’s our model. We believe a kid in Allapattah and a kid in Coral Gables should both get to be a founder this summer, and we built the price to make that real. We also offer scholarships for families who need it — no questions, no judgment.
Yes. Every week of camp is a complete, standalone experience — your child can drop in any week and walk out Friday with a finished project. Weekly drop-in is $199/week early bird (regular price $249/week after May 18). Weekly attendees are fully welcome at Demo Day on July 17 and can choose to pitch alongside the full-cohort kids. The full 6-week cohort at $999 remains the best value — save up to $495 versus weekly pricing across the summer.
We’re teaching real things. Kids leave Biz Kids Academy with a launched business idea, a pitch they’ve delivered to a real audience on Demo Day, hands-on experience with AI tools, and a portfolio of work they built themselves. Camp programming is fun — we have games, snacks, team challenges, and prizes — but the curriculum is serious. We treat 8-year-olds and 16-year-olds like the founders they’re capable of becoming.
Mornings start with a Founder Mindset session — short, focused content on a real-world business or leadership concept. Then it’s project work: building, coding, designing, pitching, depending on the day. Lunch and breaks are built in. Afternoons rotate between team challenges, AI labs, brand-building workshops, and pitch practice. Every Friday cohort closes out the week by presenting progress to peers. Week 6 ends with Demo Day in front of family, friends, and special guests.
Our facilitators are leading industry experts in business, technology, AI, and creative work — paired with educators who have decades of combined experience in childcare and summer programming. Every adult on our floor has gone through background checks and our internal training program. We don’t hire babysitters. We hire builders, mentors, and people who know how to bring out the best in kids.
We’ve built Biz Kids Academy as part of Miami’s broader civic and business community — not as an isolated camp. Throughout the year, we host visits and guest sessions from leaders across our city: members of the Miami Police Department (including the Chief, who has been a recurring supporter and visitor to our space), our district Commissioner, and a rotating roster of guest speakers drawn from the heads of industry, law enforcement, government, and national media. Our students don’t just learn about leadership in the abstract — they meet leaders, in person, in our space. That access is part of what makes Biz Kids different. The kid who pitches their idea to a real police chief, a real entrepreneur, or a real public servant walks out of camp differently than one who only pitches their classmates.
Biz Kids Academy is for kids ages 8 to 16. We group kids into three age tracks so the curriculum and energy match their developmental stage: Junior Founders (ages 8–10), Builders (ages 11–13), and Founders (ages 14–16). Each track works through the same six-week arc, but the projects, depth, and language adapt to each age group.
That’s most of our students. You don’t need a coding background, a business background, or a “smart kid in math” reputation to thrive here. We start every cohort assuming zero prior experience and build up from there. The kids who come in nervous are usually the ones who walk out with the most confidence — that’s the whole point.
Yes — six full weeks. June 8 – July 17, 2026. Camp runs Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 3 PM. We also offer Extended Day until 6 PM as an add-on for working parents who need later pickup.
We’re at 175 SW 7th Street, Suite 2105, in Brickell — easy access from Brickell, Downtown, Coconut Grove, Coral Gables, Edgewater, and the Roads. Free parking is available in the building.
We cap each cohort at 25 kids to keep the experience hands-on. Every kid gets attention, every kid gets airtime to pitch, every kid leaves with their own portfolio. Once a cohort fills, that’s it — no overflow, no “extra spots.”
Six weeks of programming, all materials, snacks, all team activities, Demo Day, the take-home portfolio, and a Biz Kids Founder Folder. The only optional add-on is Extended Day (3 PM – 6 PM supervision), which is priced separately. There are no hidden fees.
Yes. Every cohort reserves spots for families who need financial support. Apply through our admissions page or reach out directly to enrollment@mybizkids.com. We’ve never turned away a family because of price, and we don’t intend to start.
We’ve thought about this. Every day’s lesson is documented and summarized — if your child misses a day, we send you the daily recap so they can review it at home, and a facilitator spends one-on-one time with them before they rejoin the cohort to make sure they’re caught up. For families with unavoidable scheduling conflicts, we also offer a limited Zoom join option so kids can drop in remotely on a missed day. This isn’t a regular substitute for being in the room — it’s a backup for travel or family events. Just give us a heads-up and we’ll set it up. The point is: a missed day shouldn’t cost your kid the experience. We make sure it doesn’t.
Absolutely — we encourage it. Book a private experience through the website and come see the space, meet the team, and ask anything in person. Most parents who visit walk out reserving a spot the same day.
Yes. Biz Kids Academy runs a year-round school-year program (Mon–Fri afternoons during the school year), plus Mini Bootcamps in late July and August, and Additional Summer Classes — single-session specialty classes on AI, money, code, and brand-building. Many summer camp families stay with us through the year. Once your child is part of the Biz Kids ecosystem, they’re family.
Yes, this is built for you. You get to actually build things, pitch things, code things, and be taken seriously while you do it. You won’t be sitting in rows. You won’t be doing worksheets. You’ll be on your feet, on your laptop, on your team, and on your way to figuring out the kind of person you want to be. Bring your ideas. We’re ready for them.
Summer Classes are single-session specialty workshops at Biz Kids Academy — three hours of focused, hands-on programming on one specific topic (AI, money, code, brand-building, or business). Unlike our six-week Summer Camp, Summer Classes are designed for families who want flexibility: pick the dates, pick the topics, drop in for one class or come for ten. There are 54 classes scheduled between June 8 and July 19.
Summer Camp is a six-week, full-day program with a connected curriculum and a Demo Day finale. Summer Classes are standalone three-hour sessions you can sign up for individually. Camp is for kids who want the full immersive founder experience. Classes are for kids who want a taste of one specific skill, or for families who can’t commit six full weeks but still want quality programming. Many families do both — campers add Summer Classes as enrichment on weekends.
We’ve designed four flagship Summer Classes — what we call our Hero Classes — that represent the heart of what we do at Biz Kids: Founders Summit (kids develop and pitch a business idea start to finish in one session), Money Mastery Lab (financial literacy, budgeting, and how money actually works), Launch Day (building a brand, building an audience, going live), and AI Empire Day (hands-on AI tools to build, create, and solve real problems). These are the classes most likely to sell out first. If you’re choosing one Summer Class to try, we’d start there.
Weekend classes are $69 versus $49 on weekdays because weekend programming carries higher demand and operational costs — but more importantly, weekend time is family time, and we want the experience to be worth choosing over a Saturday at the beach. Weekend classes are intentionally designed to be the most engaging sessions on the calendar. Either way, you’re paying $16-$23 per hour for hands-on programming, real materials, and instruction from experienced facilitators — well below what most Miami enrichment programs charge for a single specialty session.
Summer Classes are for kids ages 8 to 16 — same as Summer Camp. Each class is grouped by age track (8-10, 11-13, 14-16) so the content depth and language match where your child is developmentally. When you reserve a class, you’ll select your child’s age group at checkout.
Summer Classes are capped at 30 kids per session. Slightly larger than camp cohorts (which cap at 25) because the format is different — three-hour standalone classes can accommodate a few more kids per session without losing the hands-on quality. Once a class fills, that’s it.
That’s exactly what Summer Classes are designed for. You can book a single class — no minimum, no package required. Many parents start with one Hero Class to see if Biz Kids is a fit, then book more as their kid asks for them.
Yes — book as many as you want at once. Some families build their own custom summer schedule by stacking 5-10 classes across the season. We don’t bundle or discount multi-class purchases (each class is priced individually) but the booking flow lets you reserve an entire summer’s worth of classes in one transaction.
Every class is three hours long and built around a single focused topic. The format mixes short instructional segments with extended hands-on project time, team challenges, and a closing share-out. Kids leave with something they made — a pitch, a prototype, a coded project, a brand identity, depending on the class. Snacks and materials are included.
The same vetted team that runs Summer Camp — leading industry experts in business, technology, AI, and creative work, paired with educators who have decades of combined experience in childcare and youth programming. Every adult on our floor has gone through background checks and our internal training program.
Each class is designed to stand alone — your child doesn’t need to have taken any other class to succeed in any particular one. That said, the topics build on each other if your child takes multiple. A kid who takes “Money Mastery Lab” then “Launch Day” then “AI Empire Day” will leave with a more complete founder skill set than a kid who only takes one. Many families work with us to design a sequence based on their child’s interests.
The class itself, all materials, snacks, the take-home project or portfolio piece your child creates, and supervision throughout the three-hour session. There are no additional fees.
At our Biz Kids Academy facility — 175 SW 7th Street, Suite 2105, in Brickell. Same space as Summer Camp.
Yes — the full calendar of all 54 classes between June 8 and July 19 is published on the website. Book any class on any date, as far in advance as you’d like. Popular classes (especially the four Hero Classes) tend to fill up first, so booking early is the safe move.
We understand — life happens. If you let us know at least 48 hours in advance, we can reschedule to another available class date. Same-day cancellations or no-shows aren’t refundable, but credit toward a future class is available case-by-case. Reach out to enrollment@mybizkids.com.
Mini Bootcamps are intensive shorter-format programs at Biz Kids Academy — designed for families who want a focused, high-energy summer experience without a six-week commitment. Running July 20 through August 14, Mini Bootcamps pick up right where Summer Camp ends and run through the back half of summer, giving kids structure, purpose, and skill-building right up to the start of the school year.
Summer Camp is a six-week immersive experience with a connected curriculum building toward Demo Day. Mini Bootcamps are shorter, more concentrated programs — built around specific themes and outcomes you can complete in a tighter timeframe. If Summer Camp is a season-long arc, Mini Bootcamps are sprints. Many kids do both: Summer Camp June 8 – July 17, then a Mini Bootcamp from July 20 onward to keep momentum through August.
Mini Bootcamps run July 20 – August 14, 2026, Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 3 PM. Extended Day until 6 PM is available as an add-on for working families.
Three groups especially benefit. Summer Camp graduates who finished July 17 and want to keep building through August instead of sliding into screens for a month. Families who missed Summer Camp registration but still want their kid in quality summer programming before school starts. Working parents who need structured childcare in the late July through mid-August window when most camps have ended and school hasn’t started yet. If your child is between 8 and 16 and you want them in something meaningful instead of melting into a screen for the back half of summer, Mini Bootcamps are built for you.
Same as Summer Camp — ages 8 to 16, grouped into the same three age tracks: Junior Founders (8–10), Builders (11–13), and Founders (14–16). Each track gets age-appropriate content and project depth.
Mini Bootcamps cap at 25 kids per cohort — same as Summer Camp. We keep cohort size small intentionally so every kid gets attention, every kid gets airtime, and every kid leaves with finished work.
The same vetted team that runs Summer Camp and Summer Classes — leading industry experts in business, technology, AI, and creative work, paired with educators who have decades of combined experience in childcare and youth programming. Every adult on our floor has gone through background checks and our internal training program.
Same energy and quality as Summer Camp — Founder Mindset opener, focused project work, hands-on team challenges, AI labs, and pitch practice. The content is more concentrated because the timeline is shorter, but the experience and outcomes are the same caliber. Kids leave Mini Bootcamps with completed projects, refined pitches, and skills they didn’t have when they walked in.
Programming, all materials, snacks, team activities, take-home portfolio pieces, and the Biz Kids experience. Extended Day until 6 PM is the only optional add-on, priced separately.
At our Biz Kids Academy facility — 175 SW 7th Street, Suite 2105, in Brickell. Same space as Summer Camp and Summer Classes.
Yes — and many families plan it that way. Summer Camp June 8 – July 17, then a 3-day weekend break, then Mini Bootcamp starting July 20. It’s the best way to keep a kid in builder-mode for the entire summer instead of letting eight weeks of screen time undo six weeks of growth.
Mini Bootcamps are great for first-timers. The shorter format means lower commitment, easier ramp-up, and faster wins. Your child doesn’t need any prior coding, business, or design experience — we start every cohort assuming zero background and build from there.
Yes. Same as Summer Camp and Summer Classes — every cohort reserves spots for families who need financial support. Apply through the admissions page or reach out to enrollment@mybizkids.com.
Same approach as Summer Camp: every day’s lesson is documented and summarized so your child can review at home, and a facilitator catches them up one-on-one before they rejoin the cohort. For unavoidable conflicts, limited Zoom join is available — just give us a heads-up. A missed day shouldn’t cost the experience.
Yes — we always recommend it. Book a private experience through the website to come see the space, meet the team, and ask questions in person. Most parents who visit walk out reserving a spot the same day.
Mini Bootcamps wrap August 14, just before the school year begins. Many Mini Bootcamp families transition directly into our year-round school-year program (Mon–Fri afternoons during the school year), keeping their kid in the Biz Kids ecosystem year-round. We’ll talk through options at the close of any Mini Bootcamp.
