Each day your child participates in three time blocks of guided hands on experimentation. In between those three time blocks, we have recess, lunch and a free exploration. Free exploration is 30 minutes of free time each day with an opportunity for the campers to choose from arts and crafts, games, Lego® robotics, or continuing on with our science lab equipment.

During lunch we keep everyone happy with an age appropriate video such as Magic School Bus© for the little ones or Mythbusters© for the older campers. The rest of the day is all hands on science fun!
