In this paper, we detail a method of introducing linguistics to elementary school students through a day camp model. Our day camps, Little Linguists, teach children about language analysis and exploration through a variety of activities, games, and crafts. The goals of these camps include enriching children's experience with language science, increasing university students' opportunities to share their linguistic knowledge with the community, and improving recruitment efforts for research studies. We discuss three related benefits of our camps: exposing children to linguistics at an early age, allowing undergraduate linguists a chance to "learn by teaching," and giving researchers the opportunity to engage with the broader community. Survey data from families and undergraduate students involved with the camps support our own impressions of camp outcomes and benefits
