Experiments May Include:

Science: All About Animals: What is an animal? Children explore the animal kingdom and learn about the habitats, adaptation, and life cycles of their favorite creatures. They experiment with animal calls and camouflage, and create their own animal tracks to take home. **Social Skill: Getting to Know You

Science: Energy Burst!: Children explore the energy of motion. They pop, jump, and flip with hopping, swimming, and swinging toys. They check out the kinetic energy in rubber band-wound gadgets and reach their potential with a catapult take-home. **Social Skill: Controlling Your Behavior

Science: Get Connected: Let’s talk about telecommunications! Children chat over cables, link to a network and work with radio signals. Children wind through a cell tower relay and track cell phone users, then bring home the Wired Word, an optical fiber telecommunications model. **Social Skill: Empathy – Understanding other’s points of view

Science: Mix It Up: It’s time to shake up solutions and explore mixture chemistry. Children sort out mixtures, clear color from a watery solution and see how useful a suspension can be. The Super Sorter gives children the tools to sort mixtures at home. **Social Skill: Attracting Friends

Science: Moving Motion: Child catapult into Newton’s three laws of motion! They yank a cloth from under dishes, send crash test dummies flying, and launch mini-rockets across the room. They see action-reaction forces at work with the twirling Newton Spinner Take Home. **Social Skill: Team Work and Getting Connected

Science: Power Sources: How do we make electricity? Children explore renewable and non-renewable resources for power generation. They use mechanical force to turn on fans and find out what makes a battery work. The Crank ‘n’ Shine gives children a chance to generate light. **Social Skill: The Power Inside You / Superheros
