CAMP DESCRIPTIONS
Tuesday, December 27: Solstice Celebration
Calling all Lords and Ladies of science! Your king, Quizz the robot, requests your presence as we celebrate the Winter Solstice. Find out what makes the shortest day of the year so special and participate in all the festivities, including EV3 robot jousting.
Wednesday, December 28: Green Mission
Green spoken here! Did you know the Science Center has a LEED Gold Certification? Let's discover how our building gets its power and operates. Using this knowledge, we will create our own energy efficient features and compare our designs to those inside the Energy City exhibit.
Thursday, December 29: Snowball Earth
Come chill out and have an ice day at camp! Join us on an arctic exploration as we investigate different arctic animals and how they adapt to their surroundings to help them survive the harsh conditions. Then we will work together to engineer a way to move across a sheet of ice, and have a cool time!
Friday, December 30: Pixelmania: Camp Edition
Are you mad about Minecraft? Discover the basics of coding through unplugged activities and Ozobot robots. Within the Minecraft creative mode, our campers will participate in multiple building challenges. This camp is suitable for beginner and advanced Minecraft players alike!
Monday, January 16: Magic School Bus
Miss Frizzle took her class on a field trip to the Connecticut Science Center, but now the Magic School Bus is broken! The bus has left us clues and challenges, based on past adventures on earth and in space, for you to complete. We need the best science detectives that can help solve the puzzles and track down the missing piece so the bus can depart for its next adventure.
