Winter Camps

The Fleet Science Center is offering two weeks of full-day science camps this winter! Grades 1–3 can enjoy educational, hands-on activities such as making robots or learning how paper airplanes work. Registration is now open!

December 23: Expect the Unexpected

All science is methodical and predictable, right? Not in this program! Be wowed by science phenomena and how easily your senses can be tricked.

December 26: Try, Try, Try Again

Learn what it takes to be a scientist by testing, tweaking and retesting. Complete a variety of experiments and build a tall tower out of lightweight objects to see if you have what it takes!

December 27: Collaborate or Compete

Use teamwork to complete a blind building challenge and collaborate with your group to design a crash test helmet.

December 30: So You Think You Can Fly

The ingenuity of flight is remarkable. Join us as we learn the basics of flight and look to nature and other inspiration to engineer our own flying devices.

December 31: Chain Reaction

Use natural forces and your own imagination to make something happen. Make a marble roller coaster, a Keva contraption and a Rube Goldberg device with your class!

January 2: Toys in Motion

Open-ended challenges encourage curious minds! Make mechanical toys and learn basic programming skills to direct a small robot through an obstacle course.

January 3: Maker Mania

Join the Maker movement! Craft and tinker with everyday objects and turn them into your own incredible devices.
