Our Preschool Workshop Themes
Adventures in Air
Preschoolers learn that even though air is invisible, it is all around them all the time. They also learn that air has the power to move objects and slow them down. They experiment with a variety of items that rely on the air to help them move.
Human Body
Children meet Mr. Bones, the skeleton, and learn about muscles and body systems.
Let's Measure
This workshop is tons of fun! We’ll explore the many ways in which we measure things every day, including time, temperature, weight, and length. Your preschoolers will learn all about weight as they balance mini teddy bears on a real scale. They'll also be introduced to length using a big "foot" that they can take home to keep on measuring!
Listen Closely
This workshop introduces kids to the science behind the sounds all around them. Kids experiment with a wave motion model to help them understand that sound travels in waves and can be heard in a variety of pitches. They also learn about the everyday materials that make a variety of special effects noises in movies and create their own special effects sounds.
Playing with Polymers
Giant molecule chains called polymers are vital to modern civilization; and they can be lots of fun for kids. In this slimy class, we will explore, create and play with the most entertaining and useful molecule known to science, and discover its many shapes and forms.
Powerful Plants
Get out your gardening gloves! In this class all about plants, your junior botanists will learn where seeds come from and how they grow. They will discover how wild plants "plant themselves" through very clever adaptations involving wind, fire and wild animals. They will plant their own seeds to take home, grow, and eat!
Shapes and Structures
Children discover different shapes and structures by using different kinds of equipment, like Geoboards and Magnatiles. They create their own structure to take home using cornstarch-based “noodles.”
Smoke & Bubbles
This workshop is really "cool"! Your kids will be mesmerized when we use dry ice to make bubbling potions, shivering quarters, and a thrilling fog scene. They'll even learn that the "smoke" from dry ice is really carbon dioxide gas.
Stellar Space
Your preschoolers will discover the wonders of space in this exciting and interactive class. We'll learn about, and see beautiful photos of our planet Earth, the sun and moon, and all the planets in our Solar System. We'll even take a pretend trip to the moon where we'll collect moon rocks and take a moon walk just like real astronauts!
