  • Study Rocks and Crystals and grow our own!
  • Classify rocks
  • Learn about earthquakes and so much more
• If that's not enough, we will blast off into space as we:
  • Make and blast off Balloon Rockets, Bottle Rockets, Chemical Rockets, Straw Rockets, and Estes Rockets.
  • Learn about Newton's Law as we make a Newtons Car and a Balloon Car
  • Learn the principles of rocket flight
  • Make glow in the dark galaxies
  • Go through astronaut boot camp!
• Don't miss this exciting adventure! This camp fills up very fast!

Option STR 5-Technically Magic (Ages 4-5) 

• What a great Combination! We will combine the fun of Science Magic with the LEGO® Education's Tech Machines!

  • For every child that asks the question "WHY?"
  • Does your child like to mix, make, laugh and learn? Then this is the camp for you! We mix it up so that your child stays engaged! Dr. Lipid is back and boy is he mad! Our arch enemy is up to no good and we have to stop him!
  • Investigative fun is yours as the O.X.Y.S. (Only eXcellent Youth Scientist ) match their wits against Dr. Lipid, Head of the Organization of M.O.R.O.N.S. (Magical Ogres Reshaping Our Natural Systems). The children will learn many exciting science principles as they work their way through the snares Dr. Lipid left behind!
  • Your child will magically change a liquid’s color and make boxes defy gravity. They will make things fizzle and pop! They will create vacuums that suck eggs into jars! Your child's eyes will be wide with excitement!
  • What more could you want? Well, how about building the coolest machines to help us along they way?
  • You will not believe what your child will be creating with LEGO® Education's Tech Machines! They will build working machines with moving parts using small hand friendly tools such as screwdrivers and integrated screws. These machines have reels, hooks, scoops and propellers! The children will learn science, technology and problem solving, while increasing communication skills and fine motor coordination. All this while having a GREAT time!

Wacky Science Magic: Ages 6-8

• Dr. Lipid is back and boy is he mad! Our arch enemy is up to no good and we have to stop him!
• Mystery and Magic are yours as the O.X.Y.S. (Only Excellent Youth Scientist ) match their wits against Dr. Lipid, Head of the Organization of M.O.R.O.N.S. (Magical Ogres Reshaping Our Natural Systems). The children will learn many exciting science principles as they work their way through a maze and out of the Castle of Dr. Lipid!
• We use many mysteries to escape from the rooms:
  • Vacuums that draw eggs into a bottle
  • Pass strings through our necks
  • Magically change a liquid’s color with Acid and Bases,
  • Make a can come when called
  • See boxes defy gravity
  • Use flame test to analyze chemicals and make GAC
  • We will put a needle through a balloon
  • Crush a can with atmospheric pressure
  • We will explore the properties of DRY ICE
• This is a camp of adventure! The children learn the science that makes the magic happen and then have the opportunity to present what they learned as they put on a Science Magic Show at the end of the camp for the parents to see.

School of Magic! Ages 9-11

• Let your child explore the world of Science Magic, or in other words: The school of: "That is NOT possible!"
• In our Abnormal Physics class, the children will learn to:
  • Cut off their head with a string
  • Put a needle through a balloon
  • Put a balloon directly over a flame and not have it burst.
  • Make boxes defy gravity
  • Use air to push an egg into a small opening and suck water into a vacuum.
  • Break a stick with atmospheric pressure.
• In the Chemical Potions class we will:
  • Make a substance go from a solid to a gas without melting
  • Make fires burn different colors
  • Mix concoctions that first turn cold then magically hot!
  • Make clear liquids turn colors and make colored liquids change their color.
  • Make objects glow in the dark
  • Write invisible messages
• Don't worry, our magicians in training also must learn the science behind the magic.
  • In the Abnormal Physics classes they will learn about Atmospheric Pressure, Polymers, thermodynamics, the difference between the center of mass and the center of gravity, the concept that vacuums do not suck, but actually create a low pressure zone allowing atmospheric pressure to do the rest.
  • In the Chemical Potions class they will learn about acids, bases, indicators, chemical reactions, flame test, fluorescence, sublimation, exothermic and endothermic reactions and lots more.
• At the end of the week the graduates will have the opportunity to present what they learned as they put on a Science Magic Show for the parents to see.
