CRAZY SCIENCE
Young children are naturally curious and love to discover new things about the world around them. Big Science Experiments for young Kids helps them explore their inquisitive side with fun, hands-on experiments that introduce them to STEAM concepts.
This standout science camp for kids features:
- Engaging experiments - Learning is a blast as kids explore basic scientific principles using everyday objects, like combining raisins and soda to see the effects of carbon dioxide in Dancing Raisins.
- Avenues for investigation - Children will develop problem-solving skills as they learn to ask questions, gather information, make guesses, and explain their discoveries.
- Simple directions - Kids can experiment with ease thanks to clear, step-by-step instructions that foster independent learning and require minimal supervision from adults.
- Explicit icons - You’ll know how to properly plan thanks to labels that alert you to a possible mess, when you may need to step in, and how long it should take to successfully complete the experiment.
- Campers will learn by doing science as they mix, launch, dig, dissect, observe, explore and so much more!
CLAY SCULPTURE (Gr K-3)
Our Clay & Sculpture Camp is an exciting opportunity for students to dive into the world of 3D artistry. In this camp, students will explore the art of sculpting and clay modeling, unleashing their creativity to create intricate and beautiful sculptures.
Campers will craft everything from mythical creatures, animals and world culture artifacts to handmade cups, bowls and plates that your family will treasure forever.
SCULPTORS (Gr 4-8)
Learn to express yourself with clay as you create animals, cups, bowls, sculptures and more! In this two-week camp, you'll develop hand-building techniques and learn to throw on the potter's wheel, then paint your creations with beautiful and bright colors.
Design your pottery projects from start to finish! In this camp, learn hand-building techniques to add character to projects and grow skills on the potter's wheel. Try out a variety of glazing techniques to add texture and personality. Projects range from bowls and cups to sculptures and hanging decorations.
A few things to note:
- This is a different location than the regular Bricks4Kidz Milpitas. Another parent and I showed up at the wrong place at first.
- Drop-off time seems pretty flexible, with the folks there from at least 8:50 and some people showing up late.
- The cost for aftercare is slightly different on ActivityHero than if you go through the Bricks4Kidz site for some reason.
- They did watch a movie on Friday, so there is some screen time. Aftercare also seems like a free-for-all - not as structured.
- There is no chess instruction.
All that said, it's very well priced and my kid was very happy to go every day. I do think they can improve some of these things so it is even better, but I do recommend it.
