Spring Science Week & 11-Week Afterschool Program Our Spring Science Week offers a vibrant lineup of themed science days inspired by the energy and renewal of the season. Students will dive into hands-on, project-based learning, creative activities, and STEM exploration—all centered around the buzzing life and fascinating natural phenomena of spring. Following Spring Science Week, our 11-week spring afterschool session continues the momentum with engaging science experiences that spark curiosity and innovation. Throughout the program, students work toward a central science project , building deeper understanding through collaboration, critical thinking, and imaginative discovery—all in a fun, supportive environment designed to nurture young scientists. 🧪🎨 MONDAYS — Mystery Science & Outdoor Explorers Spring Theme: Plants, Dirt, Critters & Creative Habitats Students explore spring biology through nature-inspired art and design projects—using hands-on investigations of soil, sprouting seeds, animal adaptations, and tiny ecosystem helpers as creative inspiration for a dynamic blend of art, science, and discovery. (* includes nature walks + outdoor gardening ) ⚡⚙️ TUESDAYS — Tinker & Engineering Lab Spring Theme: Bright Ideas in Motion! — Circuits, Forces & Inventor Challenges Power up the week with hands-on engineering and physics challenges ! Students explore circuits, conductive materials, simple machines, ramps, and beginner-friendly 3D printing while learning how electricity, motion, forces, and design work together through creative problem-solving. 🍓 WEDNESDAYS — Kozy Kitchen Wednesdays Spring Theme: Tasty Chemistry Creations For our Jr. Top Chefs, dive into the science of kitchen chemistry! With our new on-site oven, learn essential kitchen safety while creating exciting edible chemical reactions. Whip up tasty experiments that are as fun to make as they are to eat! 🧬 THURSDAYS — Biology Meets Chemistry Spring Theme: Cells and Anatomy Chemistry Students explore the science of life—dissecting animals, building colorful cell models, experimenting with nature’s chemistry, and discovering how living things grow and interact with their environment. 🌍 FRIDAYS — Ancient Worlds & Cosmic Wonders Spring Theme: Deserts, Pyramids & Planetary Science Travel through time and space as students explore the mysteries of deserts and ancient civilizations.
