SciFun Camp: Space Explorers (K-2nd) (Day 1 of 5)

SciFun Camp: Space Explorers (K-2nd) (Day 1 of 5)

What would you pack on a trip out into space? It’s a simple question with a not-so-simple answer. It all depends on how far away you’re trying to go, how you’re going to get there, and what you plan to do when you arrive! Humans have always dreamed of exploring and visiting what is out there beyond Earth, and you have to understand multiple areas of science to actually go out and do it.

In this camp, you will start by learning what objects are out in space and what we’ve learned from past missions. Using this knowledge, we can get creative and think like engineers. Decide how best to explore a new world, harness the energy of the sun to power a city, or even how to deflect an asteroid away from Earth’s path to avoid going the way of the dinosaurs!

For students entering grades K - 2nd grade

Drop-off for camps is from 8:30-9:00 and pick-up is from 3:00-3:30.

SciFun Camp: Young Eco Engineers (K-2nd) (Day 1 of 5)

One of the greatest achievements in human civilization is understanding how to map out and build entire cities. Over half of the population in the US lives in them. Unfortunately, not all of these achievements have been good for the environment. Loss of habitat has become the biggest threat to the environment. Fortunately, we are understanding how we can make changes for the better.

In this camp, we’ll learn about some of the achievements the engineers and builders of the past constructed things - from small bridges to the Great Pyramids of Egypt. We’ll then go further and think about ways to design structures that are good for people but also good for the planet!

For students entering grades K - 2nd grade

SciFun Camp: Dinos to Rhinos (K-2nd) (Day 1 of 5)

If you’ve ever been to our museum before, you know something about dinosaurs. You probably also know why the dinosaurs died out…but what happened afterwards? How do you go from a world full of dinosaurs to a world full of large mammals? The answer is much more complicated than most people realize, and you will learn how and why we have the animals around that we do today!

In this prehistoric science camp, you will learn not just about the famous dinosaurs of the Cretaceous Period and how they went extinct, but how the survivors of that mass extinction went on to become so successful. Hint: a lot of it has to do with adaptation, or how well something is able to survive in its environment. We will do experiments to demonstrate how adaptation works, and we will also debate what life would have been like if that asteroid never hit 66 million years ago!

SciFun Camp: Dinos to Rhinos (3rd-5th) (Day 1 of 5)

If you’ve ever been to our museum before, you know something about dinosaurs. You probably also know why the dinosaurs died out…but what happened afterwards? How do you go from a world full of dinosaurs to a world full of large mammals? The answer is much more complicated than most people realize, and you will learn how and why we have the animals around that we do today!

In this prehistoric science camp, you will learn not just about the famous dinosaurs of the Cretaceous Period and how they went extinct, but how the survivors of that mass extinction went on to become so successful. Hint: a lot of it has to do with adaptation, or how well something is able to survive in its environment. We will do experiments to demonstrate how adaptation works, and we will also debate what life would have been like if that asteroid never hit 66 million years ago!

SciFun Camp: Science of Summer Olympics (K-5th) (Day 1 of 5)

Do you like to watch the Olympics? Did you know that this sporting event was first held in ancient Greece thousands of years ago? If you play sports or watch sports, you can appreciate how fit and well-trained athletes must be in order to excel at their sport. While each sport can be hugely different (imagine basketball vs. bowling), all athletes need to exercise and train. They need to learn balance, to use certain muscles, to eat properly…and this all involves science.

In this final camp of the summer, you will learn how athletes from centuries past to the modern day have trained to become the best athletes in the world and participate in the Olympics. On the last day, we will have a field day (sort of a mini-Olympics) where you will participate in events that test your body and mind!

SciFun Camp: Earth Day Camp: Caring for the Planet

As we near Earth Day, it’s a great time to reflect on what the natural world provides us. As we know, habitats around the world are under threat. As daunting as these problems are, the solutions can start with something small…like picking up trash, planting a native wildflower, or making a bee bath. If enough people do even the small things, it amounts to big change.

For all that nature provides us, the Earth deserves to be looked after. Come to our wetlands to learn about a variety of plants and animals and grab a rake, a trowel, or a seed and help it to continue providing for us.

Homeschool SciFun Camp: Science of Alien Worlds

Do aliens exist? If they do, what do you think they would look like, and would they be intelligent? Some scientists think intelligent life would likely have a humanlike form - legs and arms, upright posture, large brains, etc. - but more and more we are finding out there are some pretty smart animals here on Earth, like the octopus!

It’s fun to imagine what living things could look like on an alien world. If you know what the environments of these possible worlds look like, it could probably tell you a lot about what the organisms look like too!

SciFun Camp: Nature’s Life Cycles

It is nearly Spring, and many of our plants and animals are starting to wake up. For some living things, like trees, it’s pretty easy to tell how new growth emerges - tiny buds form from the stems. What about some not so obvious things, like insects? Where do they come from? Did they hibernate, migrate, or stay active all along without us noticing?

Living things have life cycles, like a butterfly emerging from a cocoon or a fruit developing from a flower. Knowing life cycles of plants and animals helps you understand, and even predict, where and when you can expect to see them once warmer weather returns!

SciFun Camp: Wind, Water, and Weather

You’ve probably heard people say if you don’t like the weather in Kansas, wait until tomorrow. This is a bit of an overstatement, but Kansas can have pretty big temperature swings, sometimes from one day to the next. What drives the weather here? Why do we get so many tornadoes? What adaptations do native plants have for surviving in our highly variable seasons, and what happens when you remove them?

We’ll conduct experiments to show how and why clouds form and the weather they produce. We will also see how the weather and climate affect the land, and what people can do to protect both natural habitats and neighborhoods from damaging weather events.

SciFun Camp: President’s Day Camp: Science in the 18th Century

In the 18th century, scientists were called natural philosophers. Many of them dabbled in lots of different subjects - think Benjamin Franklin - and were the pop stars of their day. This was a time of great advancements in scientific understanding and experiments. Today, over 200 years later, we still owe modern technologies to the experiments conducted by these innovators.

Everyday life in the 18th century required a lot of hands-on work, whether it involved making your own clothes or making your own butter from your own cow on your own farm. Here too, there are opportunities to learn the science of this time and see how things were made.

SciFun Camp: Life After Dinosaurs: Rise of Mammals

Dinosaurs get a lot of attention, but the giant mammals that once roamed North America from 2.5 million to 10,000 years ago were just as fascinating. What makes this group of animals interesting is their existence coincided with modern humans. In fact, studies show that the first people who migrated down into modern-day Kansas were probably hunting mammoths.

In this camp, learn about mammoths, sabre-toothed cats, giant ground sloths, and other ice age mammals. Also, you will learn different theories of why they all went extinct. Use your knowledge of these animals and the environments they lived in to join in discussion about what caused their extinction.

SciFun Camp: Science of Dinosaurs: Fossils to Birds

We’ve all heard of the most famous dinosaur, Tyrannosaurus rex, but what do you know about its smaller relatives, like Appalachiosaurus montgomeriensis? Year after year, more and more dinosaur species continue to be discovered. Year after year, we are learning more about how these animals lived.

In this camp, you will learn what modern technology has revealed about the lives of dinosaurs. Learn how we know what dinosaurs ate, moved, cared for their young, and even what feathers were used for. Of course, it all starts with finding fossils. You will practice digging your own fossils in our fossil patties.

SciFun Camp: Photography: Science of Color and Light

Do you have an eye for photography? There are so many types of photography to learn, and lots of expensive gadgets you can use, but taking a good photo ultimately comes down to understanding a few basic concepts. Understanding the science of color and light, and knowing how to get creative with these elements, helps you become a better photographer.

For this camp, we are encouraging you to bring your own camera (either a digital camera or a phone) and use it to practice the skills you will learn about color and light.

It has to do with tiny water molecules, and how they arrange themselves. Also, how does road salt work? How is it possible to get a sunburn on a snow-covered day?

Ice can be both fun and a nuisance, but either way it is an interesting substance. There are plenty of experiments you can conduct with it to learn more about it. We will also learn to make snow using shaving cream!

For elementary school ages

Drop-off for camps is from 8:00-8:20 and pick-up is from 3:30-4:00.

SciFun Camp: Engineering and Architecture (Day 2 of 2)

SciFun Camp: Engineering and Architecture (Day 2 of 2)

What are your favorite things to build? As it gets colder, and you’re looking for more things to do indoors, it’s a good time to think creatively and learn how engineers build their projects. Start with an idea and a blueprint, and then develop your engineering skills to come up with a scale model of a bridge, a tower, or a home.

As you build your models, you will learn why things are built the way they are. Hint: buildings that have stood for thousands of years are still standing because a few, simple concepts helped them last! Sometimes, the simplest ideas yield the longest lasting structures.

SciFun Camp: Science of Hibernation and Migrations

SciFun Camp: Science of Hibernation and Migrations

Temperatures are dropping, and it is a busy time for plants and wildlife or all sorts. Some seek shelter and sleep the entire winter, others head to warmer climates, while still others stick it out and remain active throughout the season. Which ones do which, and how can you use this knowledge to understand and predict what you will see in the winter.

Living things have some pretty unique strategies for coping with winter. For those that stay active, like robins and cardinals, there are things we can do to help them find food and shelter even in the coldest months.

Homeschool SciFun Camp: Science of Plants

You may have helped plant vegetables, herbs, and flowers in the spring. Did you know that seeds of many plants, especially many of our native wildflowers, need to be exposed to cold temperatures before they can germinate? It turns out that fall is a great time to start planting wildflower seeds!

To understand seeds and planting, we must learn how plants function. We will observe and dissect different parts of plants and even learn how to identify common plants in the area as we walk around our wetlands…and get our hands a little dirty when we put seeds in the ground!

SciFun Camp: Gooey Science: Sweet & Slimy Experiments

Halloween is coming up, and it’s a perfect time to learn about the science behind making candy. What kinds of candies do people eat around the world? Learn what makes candy coatings so shiny…you will be surprised! Of course, the star ingredient of candy is sugar…what happens to it when you heat it to different temperatures?

Don’t forget the slime. In the spirit of the season, we will explore all the sticky and goopy science that goes into what makes things slippery and slimy.

SciFun Camp: Science of Autumn (day 2 of 2)

Autumn is a time of transition. The days are getting shorter and colder, and the leaves are changing colors. What is the science behind these changes? In this camp, we’ll explore the science behind Autumn changes. We’ll examine how and why leaves change their colors with leaf paper chromatography. We’ll learn about the habits of animals as they prepare for winter, make observations of plants in our wetlands, and dissect pumpkins.

Autumn is also the time to harvest and store grains and other crops. Learn about different harvesting techniques as well as how to make your own bread!

SciFun Camp: Dinosaurs and Beyond (4th-6th)

When it comes to paleontology, dinosaurs are the star of the show, but did you know there were many different types of animals that lived in the distant past? In fact, Kansas is home to some of the world's best preserved fossils of animals that lived long before dinosaurs. We even had huge ice mammals roaming around our state long after the dinosaurs died out. In this paleontology camp, you will learn about the plants and animals (including the dinosaurs!) that lived in the ancient past.

For students entering grades 4th - 6th grade

Drop-off for camps is from 8:30-9:00 and pick-up is from 3:00-3:30.
