Destination Science stands out by combining three daily hands-on science lessons with outdoor games, character development, and take-home projects, fostering both scientific confidence and social skills.
Destination Science offers engaging summer day camps where children aged 5-11 participate in three daily hands-on science stations, two outdoor action stations, and a concluding Camp Rally. Campers delve into innovative projects, often culminating in take-home creations that extend learning beyond the camp. The curriculum is designed to foster critical thinking, creativity, and problem-solving skills through themes such as robotics, engineering, animation, and space exploration. Activities emphasize understanding scientific concepts like mechanics, circuits, motion, light, and sound. Beyond scientific knowledge, the program focuses on developing crucial life skills including persistence, cooperation, communication, and curiosity, aiming for campers to build both inner science-confidence and outer self-confidence.
A typical day includes three science stations with hands-on experiments, two outdoor action stations for games and physical activity, and a Camp Rally to discuss accomplishments and sing songs.
This camp is ideal for elementary-aged children (5-11) who enjoy hands-on activities, making new friends, and exploring scientific concepts through creative challenges and experiments.
