After-School STEM Clubs
Science Explorers offers exciting hands-on after-school STEM clubs for grades K-5! We offer different topics throughout the year, covering multiple areas of science. Our club programs run for one hour once a week.
Benefits of STEM Clubs for Kids
Whether you want to nurture a passion for science or keep the kids entertained after school, Science Explorers gives you the best of both worlds. Our school STEM clubs provide a way to:
- Make friends: Have a blast while launching rockets, playing with slimy creations and mixing up chemistry concoctions. Our programs encourage kids to socialize and form friendships while making memories.
- Foster a love for learning: We provide entertaining experiments and activities that make kids excited to learn more about the world around them.
- Practice critical thinking: Unlock discoveries. Our learning experiences empower kids to observe their surroundings, channel their curiosity and use their imagination to ask thought-provoking questions.
- Use problem-solving skills: We teach kids how to apply scientific knowledge and overcome challenges.
Explore Our After-School Science Clubs
Science Explorers is proud to offer after-school science clubs where kids can unleash their inquisitive nature. Our experienced educators follow a carefully created STEM curriculum designed to encourage hands-on learning while making science fun and exciting.
In our STEM programs, kids might dig for dinosaurs, craft a submarine that sinks and floats, learn the science behind glow-in-the dark slime, and experience an out-of-this-world adventure as they journey through space. The possibilities are endless with our interactive, action-packed STEM activities.
We dive into various subject areas and themes, including chemistry, geology, marine biology, physics, astronomy and engineering. Explore our enrichment programs to see what sparks your child’s interest.
Slime After Slime
Join in the fun as we make different slime creations over this three-week intro into the wonderful world of polymers. We’ll also experiment with magnetic fields as we make a very “attractive” slime, and we’ll explore the electromagnetic spectrum as we create a variety of different types of slime that change color as if by magic in UV light.
Good Vibrations!
Why does the shriek of a siren change as it passes by? Can a person’s singing voice really crack a glass? We’ll keep the good vibrations coming as we investigate the world of sounds and sound energy. Have a percussion party, make musical instruments and experiment with echolocation. Can you hear me now?
Pop, Bang, Fizz!
A pinch of this, a dash of that, some amazing reactions are where it’s at! Listen for a pop or a bang and a fizz while mixing ingredients for frozen ice cream treats or fizzy bath poppers. Feel like a chemistry whizz while you learn about science and marvel at your creations!
Secrets of Ancient Egypt
Science Escape Room
Wild About Weather
Have you ever seen golf ball –sized hail? Watched a lightning bolt slam into a tree and burn it to the ground? Sound scary? Not if you are prepared! You, the meteorologist, will create and use your own weather station to predict changes in the weather. Construct a barometer to track air pressure changes, simulate a weather front, calculate wind speeds and make a tornado in a bottle. The forecast is all fun!
Science-Palooza
Prepare yourself for more science, more fun and more eye-popping experiments! Experience the many areas of science with this sampling of our club themes. Discover the wonder of bubbles by making a Bubblerium, write secret messages on Papyrus paper that you created, simulate a real avalanche and make your own musical instrument to play at home.
