Science North is offering exciting, week-long, science day camps across Northern Ontario this summer, for ages four to 15.
These programs are part of an initiative that will see Science North bring summer science camps to a record 22 communities in 2008.
Science North has been offering summer science camp programs to children for over 20 years. Our programs provide a unique mix of hands-on science and fun for kids.
Most camps are available in English or French, and all contain new activities.
What other summer program gives your child the opportunity to make a cloud in a jar, search for buried fossils, take things apart to find out how they work, build their own construction projects and robots, design video games or make their own comic book, 3D characters and stop-motion animation projects?
There's even a science camp that's just for girls. From WaterWorks Camp to 3D Game Making, everyone is sure to have a great time.
Register today because camps are filling quickly and many are already sold out. Register on-line at sciencenorth.ca/camps. You can also visit the website for a complete list, including descriptions, about the Science North summer science camp programs being held in your community.
