Our campers will embrace science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) to build the skills that will serve as their tool set for the future. In our camps, we work together to ignite curiosity and get excited about STEM in our everyday lives. With fun themes, new curriculum each summer, and sessions for all interests- there is something for everyone. Give your child a camp experience that will unlock their potential.

Do you like mixing things together and seeing what happens? Do you love all things slime? Do you want to make things bubble, fizz, change color, ooze, or explode? Then this is the camp for you! Join the Children’s Science Center Lab to learn all about chemistry, from chemical reactions to molecules and atoms, while having fun!
Join us for a week of all things robotics! From coding to circuits to building robots - we’ll try it all! See your ideas become a reality as we use technology to create robotic solutions for real world challenges and hone our engineering design skills along the way.
Calling all animal lovers, future vets, and junior zoologists! Join us for Science Safari where we will explore the ins and outs of all things scaly, fluffy, slimey, and feathery to explore biology, zoology, environmental science, and even engineering!

“We both give the camp a 10/10 and that's a lot coming from being an educator myself!”
"I can't say enough about the amazing staff. My active boys LOVE the fun themes and activities, I love that the Children's Science Center Lab makes learning and STEM so fun and engaging. Often my sons' curious minds walk away motivated to learn more which is what makes this mom secretly happiest of all."
