Each camper will receive a kit box with extensive nature discovery and environmental science activities to complete throughout the week, plus access to online instruction with EcoTarium educators.
Limited spaces available, guarantee your spot by registering today!
Campers (ages 5-14) will log onto Zoom each day at 10 a.m. for a one-hour session with EcoTarium educators. Together they'll use scientific principles to experiment, design, build and grow. Kit activities include, but are not limited to:
- Bee a Friend: Design and build a pollinator bee hotel
- H2WhOa: Create a filtration system for dirty water, then test its pH
- Capillary Action: Build a colorful model to explain how plants get nutrients
- Track It!: Plant seeds in your own root view garden and watch them grow
