We’ll send them home with some new skills and awesome tools to show to their family and friends.
Be sure to bundle up today - we’ll explore some of the coldest substances on Earth! We’ll start the day working with different chemicals to understand how the correct combination can make their temperature drop and investigate what happens as we use others to melt ice. Campers will experiment with dry ice and enjoy their very own special SuperCOOLness live science show!
Interested in learning more about how some of your new video games and gadgets actually work? We’ll explore some of the latest technology to help you discover how to take your skills to the next level. Whether you’re an experienced programmer or a first-time user, we’ll make sure everyone has a great day tinkering with tablets and coding computers!
Today we’ll celebrate some of the coolest animals on Earth. Our animal friends live all over our planet – many in some of the most extreme environments like the North or South poles!
