Mad Science programs are interactive and allow kids to explore different areas of science in an interesting, entertaining way. These camps are sure to keep your child engaged during summer break.

Camp Descriptions

Brixology: Join us for Brixology, where students will use unique Mad Science designed LEGO kits to build a different engineering-themed project in every session. They will use critical thinking, cooperation, and creative problem solving to test and improve their creations. Each class will revolve around a different engineering theme — including mechanical, structural, and nautical engineering. Brixology sets the foundation for our next generation of makers.

Nature’s Secrets: From giant to microscopic, life is everywhere. In this camp, young scientists will explore what it means to be alive–from our bodies to bacteria and plants to animals. Campers will extract DNA from a strawberry, build a cell model, and learn how plants grow. They’ll go on a scavenger hunt and answer questions like, “What’s inside an owl pellet?” and “What’s growing on my bread?” Finally, they’ll journey down the “Organ Trail” to discover how our bodies work and keep us moving.

Secret Agent Lab: Develop your special agent and detective skills in this super hands-on program! Uncover the science involved in evidence gathering and analysis. Sharpen your secret agent skills and discover how chemistry and the science of forensics can come to the aid of a secret agent. Identify and collect evidence – from fingerprints to tracks to trash! Secret agents-in-training will use science and awesome technological tools to connect the dots and help sniff out the suspects in this investigation into the science of sleuthing.

Red Hot Robots: Join us for a week of fun with amazing robots! In this full week of half-days, learn about the uses of robots in our world and spend time experimenting with super cool red-hot robots. Experiment with sound sensing robots, line-tracking robots, amphibious robots and robots that can even play soccer! Discover the science of circuits and how robots use sensors to explore things around them. Use your skills to build your very own working robot to take home with you!
