Monday 7/27 Rock Paper Scissors:
Investigate the awesome inventions created before modern science had really begun. Learn about Leonardo da Vinci and discover how his ideas predicted future inventions. Explore catapults, trebuchets, and more of his amazing inventions during this action packed camp day.
Tuesday 7/28 Shipwrecked:
Imagine finding yourself on a deserted island with only a few supplies. What better way to inspire your own creations? Add into the day a tsunami and a volcano and see how resourceful you can be using Ben Franklin’s inventions as inspiration.
Wednesday 7/29 Think Fast:
Inventors have always searched for a way to take flight. On today’s journey we will use early inventors like the Wright brothers to launch into the wild blue yonder. The adventure starts on the ground and travels into space. Take flight during this fun-flying camp day.
Thursday 7/30 Whiz Kidz:
Team up with your fellow camp inventors to explore the inventions of others – such as kids, women, Rube Goldberg, and Thomas Edison. Draw inspiration from the “wacky” and the practical! The goal of this camp day is to understand that we have no limitations. Our dreams will inspire invention.
Friday 7/31 Science Fiction:
Join the adventure to infinity and beyond on this fantastic day where science fiction meets science fact. As far back as Jules Verne and as recently as George Lucas, dreamers have explored what the future can hold. Many of those dreams are now reality. Sci-fi meets real inventors to help us explore how fiction can influence reality.
Unique supplies needed for virtual camps will be mailed to campers homes. In addition to the 2 hours per day available on screen with your Mad Scientist, there will be additional activities for children off screen. Each day will have a theme. If you register for a morning and afternoon session, the activities will be different and follow the daily theme.
