Preschool Summer STEM
Discover the captivating world of scientific exploration tailored to your preschooler's curiosity!
Coding and Engineering
Coding and engineering help develop problem-solving, planning, and mathematical thinking. Children will work together to build and program robots, and code with LEGOs and gears. It’s all about discovering how things work, how they’re constructed, and why.
Exploring Magnets
By experimenting with magnets, children will quickly grasp the concept of magnetic poles and how magnets push and pull—while making Wooly Willy faces, jumping magnets, and more.
Sticky Squishy Sensory Fun
It’s more than just slime! Children will explore Dancing Frankenworms, Fizzing Rainbows, Lava Lamps, and more—while learning the science behind it all.
Air Around Us
Children will learn that air is all around us—and how both our bodies and the Earth use air. We'll explore how our lungs work, how air moves objects, and more.
Gravity for Tiny Scientists
Children will learn that what goes up must come down through playful activities in the gym, building marble runs, egg drops, bucket spins, and more.
Earth Science for Earthlings
From the soil we walk on to the lakes we swim in, Earth Science isn’t just for Earth Day anymore. Children will learn about plant life, living things on Earth, food chains, and what happens to garbage.
