We all know that DIY (Do It Yourself) and Slime are all the rage, but why? The answer? It’s science! Join this quest to learn how ordinary kitchen items can be used in extraordinary ways and the science behind it all! Build your own “lava lamp”, learn the secrets behind elephant toothpaste, and make solutions that fizz, bubble, and explode (safely… don’t worry)!

Do you ever wonder what the world was like when dinosaurs lived? Did you know you could examine a dinosaur’s footprint to find out how big it was? Do you know who paleontologists are and what they do? This summer we will discover the answers to these questions and learn more about the prehistoric world. We will learn about fossils, “hatch” dinosaur eggs, and excavate dinosaur bones from sand. Join us for Prehistoric Quest as we explore the world of dinosaurs through science activities, art, games, songs, and books.

Have you ever wondered about the animals that live in the ocean? Did you know the ocean has layers and each layer is a different habitat? During our quest under the sea we will research the characteristics and features of the ocean and the animals that live there. Join us for hands-on activities that will explore why the ocean is so important and how it plays a role in all our lives. Demonstrations, activities, and games will enhance our learning in science, reading, and math. Sign up to have oceans of fun!

Did you know pineapples are berries, peanuts are beans, and asparagus is part of the lily family? Did you know some plants like acid in their soil? Did you know that you can grow your own pizza?

We will be cooking, planting, and exploring throughout our week. You won’t want to miss it!

Come join us as we explore the natural world through art!

Have you ever wondered why the weather is so crazy? How can it rain while the sun is shining? How can it be too cold to snow? What is the difference between a tornado and a hurricane?
