The San Carlos Science and Creativity Camp program at Laureola Park
returns for an exciting summer. Each camp is a one week program
designed around a general science principle. Campers will engage in
two science projects a day, 10 per week. Projects are of three different
types: Hands-On Projects, Exciting Demonstrations, and Guest
Speakers. All projects are educational and all are extremely fun! While
scientific concepts are introduced in each project, the emphasis is on
“doing” and making science fun. Other daily camp activities include
group games and morning ice breakers. At recess campers are offered
a number of activities including face painting, time with the animals,
lanyards, friendship bracelets, indoor play with LEGO®, fuse beads and
supervised recess outside on the play structure and field. Daily snacks
are provided at recess, but please bring a bag lunch. Lab fees cover
supplies for each camp and are payable to Robin Lise-Nielsen on the
first day of camp. Please, no bikes, skateboards, or scooters.
