2009 Summer Adventure Camp



June 29th thru July 17th
Kids in Space

Our astronaut training starts with physical fitness as we find out what life is like in zero gravity. Our program includes a number of projects suggested by NASA that illustrate how real astronauts prepare for space travel. Children will learn about the different planets and what it is like to live in space. Our resources include an 18-foot space shuttle, a moon habitat, and a robotic arm. The highlight of our space adventure will be a visit to a planetarium where we will have a pre-school "Tour of the Stars."





July 20th thru August 7th

The Rainforests

Next we focus on nature as we learn more about the creatures that live in the Rainforests. We start with plants and insects and learn about species that are in danger of extinction. Next we look at monkeys, birds, and bigger animals and learn how they use camouflage to survive. If we have sufficient demand we will end with a visit to a real rainforest in the Bronx Zoo.







August 10th thru August 27th

The Mad Scientest

We inspire a passion for discovery as we learn about the scientific method and the important role of science in every day life. Younger children will experiment with bubbles, magnets, magnifying glasses, mirrors, and growing plants. Older children will learn about electromagnetism and use a hand held generator to power bells, lights, crystal radios and small motors. We will end with a closer look at the microscopic world of nature as we use a portable digital microscope that displays images on our computers monitors.
