The environmental nature center is once again offering its annual spring break camp from April 9-12. Featuring an array of fun activities tailored for young children in grades K – 6th grade, this year’s Spring Break Camp will highlight the themes “Wonderful Water,” “Habitat Heroes,” and “Science Cuisine.” Camp is from 9AM to 1PM, and “After Camp” is offered from 1-3PM
Spring Break Themes @ ENC:
Habitat Heroes - Campers will get involved in all the ways one can help out our planet Earth. Through hands-on games, eco-friendly crafts and exciting experiments, kids will learn about all 5 R’s, our friends the decomposers, discover some ways to help endangered species, and bust some non-natives.
Wonderful Water - Campers will immerse themselves in the wonders of water as they take a voyage through the water cycle, travel through time with “Freddy the Fish”, and fly with the “Birds of the Air” along the Pacific Flyway. Campers will become water connoisseurs and more during this fun week of water wisdom.
Science Cuisine - Campers will spend the week learning about the sensational science of food. They will experiment, concoct, measure and taste their way through food experiments to learn more about edibles and the science behind all that we consume.
After Camp: Space Cadets (3-6th grade)
Campers will join Naturalist Alex Lane in building, playing, and working to better understand the unknown frontiers of space. They will explore facts about space, experiment with gravity, build some "space bound" vehicles, and create their own constellations.
After Camp: Eco-Fun (K – 2nd grade)
Campers will become scientists and conduct experiments to test the world around them. They will test air, water, plants and soil. At the culmination of the week, campers will create their very own “mini forest” in a jar to take home to show family and friends.
