Join the science guys for science summer camp! We make science fun, cool, and easy for kids ages 5-12! Science Guys summer camps are the perfect mix of fun and education! We call it "edutainment"! We pack each week full of experiments (about 20-30 per week!!), games, relationship building, and FUN! The vibe is very campy, but with tons of learning woven in. This makes the camps great for all kids: those who love science, and those who don't yet know they love science! Our goals for science camp are: 1. FUN! 2. LEARNING 3. SAFETY We keep the kids extremely engaged, jumping from one science experiment to the next! Each day they will come home with 2-4 science projects to show their parents. Our hope is that they've learned enough to tell their families something new! ________________________________ Camp Daily Schedule: (can be dependent upon location, but this is the most common schedule) 9am-4pm Drop-off: 8:45-9am Morning Session: 9am-12pm Lunch and Free time: 12-1pm Afternoon Session: 1-3:45pm Pick-up: 3:45-4pm We will do 1 snack/break time during the morning session and another during the afternoon session. Snacks and lunch are not provided. Our snacks, lunch, and free time will be done outside if weather allows. Some locations have playgrounds and others have fields for free play. We also bring tons of games and puzzles. No screens allowed, even during breaks, and even for adults :) The exception to this is if the Lead Teacher needs to check up on science facts or prepare multimedia content for an experiment while the assistant teacher takes care of the kids. Science Camp is best for kids aged 5-12. Our groups are limited to 25 campers, unless specifically indicated otherwise, in which case we will provide another set of hands (or two!).
