The All Day STEAM Camps give students the opportunity to attend both the morning and afternoon camps. Mornings start at 8:00 a.m. and end at 12:00. We will have your child eat a packed lunch brought from home with us between 12:00 and 1:00, supervised free time. The afternoon sessions start at 1:00 p.m. and end at 5:00 p.m. For the All Day STEAM Camp, you will receive a reduction in the rate of signing up for two camps. Camps are generally for children 7 and older. If you need to drop your child off earlier than 8 or pick them up later than 5, please let us know your needs! We've decided to also offer a camp for our younger kiddoes (3 to 6) the weeks of June 23-27 and July 28-August 1st, 2025 -
In astronomy camp, kids will learn details about our solar system and our galaxy. We’ll talk with Astrobiologists about their research to find life on other planets. We’ll figure out ways to get humans from Earth to Mars, and how we can sustain life there, which involves some chemistry. Students will learn how a telescope works. They will build one of two different types of simple telescopes—an astronomical and a terrestrial telescope—each with a magnification of 5X. They then experiment with the different telescope designs and determine how the lens combination in each telescope works to magnify an object’s image. At the end of the week, students can take their telescope home so that they can look at the stars. -
Pottery is a physical form of art. We will be working with self-drying clay to make things such as plates, bowls, mugs, jewelry holders, and anything else the students can imagine. We will be learning about different techniques such as throwing clay, pinching, slipping, coiling and glazing. At the end of the week, students will be able to take their pieces home along with the ability to use their knowledge to make more pieces on their own. -
This class will excite kids who want to figure out how stuff works, build it and redesign it to make it even better. The design challenges are generally related to engineering designs, but can also be chemical, biological or mechanical. Students will decide on their design challenge and then construct their “machine” by mid-week. Then, they will test and redesign their project before taking it home. -
Jewelry Making: We will choose two kinds of jewelry to make, based on student choice (metal/wire, bead, macrame, leather, natural fibers, stone, glass, clay). Students will design their own creation and learn techniques for making their design). By the end of the week, students will have either something to wear or something to gift of their own creation. -
Plants are the foundation of our survival, as a food source for us and for the animals we can eat, and as medicines to reduce pain, calm nerves, reduce inflammation, soothe a sunburn, and many more. Some plants can also cause severe health issues to humans and our pets. Students will build a medicinal plant book, include pictures or pressed specimens, identify their common and scientific names as well as their uses to heal or harm. At the end of the week, they get to keep their book, and hopefully add to it. -
In this class we will learn different techniques of painting and drawing. We will learn what types of paint to use to create different pieces as well as what levels of graphite to use to achieve various styles of drawings. We will work with recreating objects realistically and abstractly using color theory. Students will be able to work alone or with another student to expand their knowledge and skills. -
Photography is a way to capture a memory, a moment in time forever frozen. In this camp, students will learn how to enhance the beauty of a moment, draw the eye to a specific point, adjust the way the camera captures light, focus on an object, and how to edit photos to change the story the photo tells. We will work with a whole array of styles such as portrait, landscape, cityscape, architecture, and object focus. Along with that we will learn to see the world from a different view to find the beauty in the ordinary world. -
Veterinary medicine is an incredibly popular science for young people. It is also pretty challenging, as the patients veterinarians treat cannot tell them what hurts or how they feel. In this camp, students will learn about hematology (study of blood), parasitology (common skin, fecal and blood parasites) and microbiology (microscopic organisms which cause diseases). They will do case studies on small and large animal diagnosis of diseases based on symptoms and winners of the case-study contests will win prizes. They will also practice dissection, identifying muscle tissue, veins, arteries, bones and skin. Lastly, they will practice suturing techniques. Their drawings and case studies will be added to their notebook to use as a reference for their future studies. -
