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.
Super Slime
Have you ever made slime? It’s gooey, stretchy and sometimes changes colors. In this camp you’ll make all kinds of slime, even slime you can eat, and discover the varying properties of polymers. This camp is full of fun and fascinating games, demonstrations and activities designed to help our youngest become curious about science.
Silly Science
The serious pursuit of science can be funny, too! In this camp, you’ll explore the lighter side of science when you make cloud dough and explore things that glow, investigate the crazy world of polymers and go for a ride of a “hover ray.” This camp is going to be fun—and that’s no joke!
Time: 9:00am – 4:00pm Ages: Kindergarten Registration: Members $240, nonmembers $265 Notes: Early drop-off starting at 8:00am – $20 per week; Late pick up 4:00-5:30pm – $30 per week
