Four Summer Camp themes 2025
Make a mess at our camp, not your kitchen!
Daring Designs: Create and Build
Does your child like to make things with their own hands and push their imagination to its limit? Allow them to explore their creative side with hands-on STEAM projects. Design incredible things this summer when you construct with thousands of Legos and K’nex, climb inside life-size forts, test marble roller coasters, and defy gravity with huge Jenga sets. Do you love Hex Bugs as much as we do? Build a habitat and take home your very own Hex Bug!
Maker's Mania: Technology and Art
Maker’s Mania is the intersection of technology and art. STEAM (Science Technology Engineering Art Mathematics) takes center stage when you design a working flashlight, create a life-size shadow puppet theatre, construct a movable-hinge creature, and use art to program robots!

Radical Reactions: Mix it, Blast it!
Does your child enjoy mixing chemicals and making things fly across the room? Who doesn’t? This camp is all about producing chemical chaos and exploring eye-popping physics in a safe, controlled environment. Mix chemicals to make a lava lamp, fling a Hex Bug payload using a catapult, power up a mouth rocket and concoct slime. This week always ends with homemade ice cream!
Slippery Science: Slime and Sticky Favorites
Glitter slime, cloud dough, elephant toothpaste, egg drop contest, oobleck, and other summer camp slippery favorites all rolled into one week of exciting, hands-on fun. Wrap up the week with outdoor fun including a Slip ‘N Slide!
