Help Your Child Build Confidence, Creativity, and Teamwork

Start a Destination Imagination (DI) team this season and give your child the space to explore, experiment, and grow—while having fun with friends.

What Is DI?

Destination Imagination is a hands-on creative problem-solving experience where kids work on a team of 2-7 peers to solve open-ended STEAM-based challenges over several weeks or months. It’s 100% kid-driven and teams take their solutions to a fun tournament experience in the spring.

What Kids Gain:

  • Curiosity, creative thinking & resilience
  • Collaboration and communication skills
  • Confidence and leadership skills
  • Building a growth mindset in a safe space to try, fail, and try again
