Students will transform the classroom into a crime lab and build their own Technicolor Blender to uncover the hidden components of white light and rainbows. Sit in the Director's chair and learn the science of movie making. Enter the realm of dinosaurs and explore the world of creepy crawly creatures and learn about ocean habitats.

Lego Robot World
Lego Robot World provides children everything they love and need from a fun, stimulating activity. First, they are intellectually captivated and challenged by building motorized robots and machines out of Lego technic parts (yes, they really can build them!). Next, they imagine a world in which their walking robot, helicopter, motorboat, gear car, windmill or other robotic device exists and functions. Their creativity is further ignited as they build the house, heliport or dock for their motorized creation. And finally, they experience joy as they play with their robotic machine in its environment and use it to interact with other children. And with thousands of Lego parts and a master Lego builder to help them build, children enjoy and learn from every visit to Lego Robot World (and rarely wish to leave). Lego Robot World promotes problem-solving skills, creativity, basic math concepts, self-reliance and self confidence, all while children have tons of fun!

Rocket Science and Astronomy  Ready set, blast off! Explore the Universe as we launch everything from Film Canister Rockets, to Water Bottle Blasters, Business Card Boomerangs, and much more! Our adventures will take us to Titan, Mars, and a Galactic Cluster as we learn about comets, constellations, and our galaxy! This class is out of this world!

STOMP Learn fun hip hop and jazz funk dance moves while creating rhythms of music with everyday objects you wouldn’t expect! Brooms, garbage can lids, boxes and more will be our musical instruments! This class encourages you to be your true self and to connect with others through the love of dance, music, and theater.
