Dino-Mites/Color Palooza (Kindergarten)

Note: For Camp Discovery’s summer 2020 session, morning and afternoon kindergarten camps have been combined into full-day camps. For details, please see our Camp Discovery COVID-19 Response.

Dino-Mites

Giant lizards walking the streets of downtown Reno—unbelievable! Or is it? In this camp you’ll learn all about the dinosaurs that once roamed Nevada. You’ll learn what they ate, how they lived, and create your own day-in-the-life of a dinosaur story. You’ll also learn about fossilization and create your own fossil to take home.

Color Palooza

Inspired by the science behind color, this camp gets hands on with the stuff that makes our world so vivid, bright and wonderful. Make science your friend by studying a different color each day while making sticky green slime, writing a secrete message in a yellow banana and even making play dough that magically turns red.
