In the 21st century, kids need to understand the language of science. Technology evolves by the hour, and science terms are part of our everyday vocabulary. Whether you have a budding chemist or a little artist at home, all kids need to understand science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM), and they all will benefit by building a firm foundation in their formative years.
We’re happy to tell you that this type of learning can be fun! Kids learn better when concepts are communicated in an entertaining and engaging way. At Science Explorers, we offer science summer camps and after-school clubs that present science in lively new ways.
Do you have a child ages four to 11 who enjoys hands-on activities and trying new things? Then they will love our programs. Learn more about our offerings in Galloway, NJ and surrounding areas.
Science Summer Camps for Kids
We run week-long summer STEM camps that introduce children to scientific ideas and let them see ideas in action instead of just hearing about them. The experiential aspects of our science summer camps help children learn more quickly and grasp scientific theories that may seem beyond their years.
We model our teaching principles after the national science standards. Kids will explore topics such as:
- Biology
- Ancient civilizations
- Oceanography
Many parents see our science summer camps as a win-win. Kids have a great time, and parents get the outstanding, reliable childcare they need during the summer. Our camps also offer children time to socialize and meet other people, building connections they will treasure for years to come.
Our friendly staff has years of experience in teaching science, and they love seeing young people get excited about this subject. When we present new ways to look at things, our campers are always amazed. Their interest sparks our creativity, and we find many ways to engage the kids after they walk through the door.
We hold our Galloway camps at locations throughout Atlantic County.
After-School Science Clubs
Kids who develop their curiosity ask questions and puzzle over mysteries they want to solve. They push to learn more, and they’re always looking to pick up more knowledge. These children want to be educated, and we want to encourage them. Our after-school science clubs build on science concepts kids learn in school by providing additional activities.
Kids will learn how to apply parts of the scientific method. They will make predictions and see if they come true. They will gain in-depth knowledge of fascinating elements, species, theories and more. They will do all this while receiving after-school care parents appreciate. You can relax knowing your child is spending the afternoon doing something they really love at our science clubs.
We dive into a variety of topics each session. Themes may include:
- Coding
- Physics
- Biology
- Anatomy
- Chemistry
- Physiology
Clubs take place for an hour after school each weekday, and they last for three to five weeks. Each week, your Science Explorer will take home a creation they made during camp, which they can use to play with and continue to learn even after the session has been completed. Our programs foster a lifelong interest in learning and science that will remain with kids long after elementary school.
