Camp Google 2020
Camp Google 2020, which commenced on July 1, is designed to share “exciting and innovative assignments” for kids which would help them explore a vast range of skills including painting, writing, storytelling, cooking, coding, craft etc.
In addition to that, the camp also includes internet safety tips which would educate the children on how to be a responsible digit citizen.
The assignments are designed carefully by creative experts and YouTubers. According to Google, the last submission of the assignment is 20 July so that late joiners would have time. On completion, the child would receive an e-certificate and more exciting prices. To enroll in the camp, users have to directly get started on the assignments beginning on 1st July.
"Your email ID is your unique identifier. So make sure to sign-in with the same ID across all assignments. You do not need to register separately for the camp, just ensure you complete all the assignments," the Google release explained to the young users.
