Kids love science. They just don’t always know it.
When your child picks up rocks on a walk and sorts them into piles back at home, they explore geology. When you point out a constellation to your child on the way home from basketball practice, they see astronomy. Every time your child tries out a new activity to see if it works, like riding their bike without training wheels or trying new clothes on a doll, they’re perfecting the scientific method.
Science plays a big role in our lives, and engaging your children in science learning will set them up for success in the future. Science Explorers offers science camps and after-school clubs for kids ages four to 11 in Lebanon County who want to have fun. They also will learn science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) concepts while making new friends.
Parents and kids alike love our programs because they supplement academic principles with hands-on activities that get kids involved with science. They will make things, perform experiments and exercise their creativity as they dive into new scientific topics.

Summer Science Camps in Lebanon County
Parents have two main reasons for searching for summer science camps. They want their children to learn during their summer downtime, and they want a reliable form of childcare. Science Explorers offers both of those things and one more vitally important quality — our camps are fun.
Your children will look forward to attending our summer STEM camp each day as they do cool things like dissecting animals, making slime or erupting a “volcano.” These hands-on activities illustrate scientific concepts that are easier conveyed through experience than through book learning. Your children will receive an education without even realizing it. To them, it’s just an enjoyable time. But you will see how thoroughly they absorb new concepts that assist them when they return to school.
Our camps last for a week. Each one focuses on a special topic, giving kids the chance for in-depth exploration they can’t always perform in the classroom. By the end of the week, your child will gain knowledge and confidence and make plenty of new friends.
After-School Science Clubs in Lebanon County
Participating in after-school clubs is a great way to improve your child’s academic achievement and allow them to engage with peers on something they will enjoy. We offer after-school opportunities for elementary-aged kids that will excite them and ignite their interest in science.
Each session lasts three to five weeks. The club meets daily after school for an hour, and topics we often offer relate to:
- Anatomy
- Physiology
- Coding
- Biology
- Chemistry
Our after-school STEM clubs start with a question and spend weeks exploring the answer. Kids’ curiosity can lead them on so many science-focused adventures. We encourage children to use their creativity while learning new things, combining left and right brain approaches.
Signing up for our after-school programs benefits students in so many ways. Kids make something each week that they can take home and continue to learn with. We set up Parent Pages for the children so you can see what the kids have been up to and ask them about it at home. Our clubs also provide an option for after-school care that your child will love.
