Experience Friday Fun Days and
One-Day Camps for Kids Ages 6-12
Register your child for a Friday Fun Day camp, or a One-Day camp during July 4th week. In addition to hands-on activities with our STEM focus, campers enjoy museum exploration, outdoor games, and a pizza lunch.
Featuring weekly themes such as Wacky Water Works, Extreme Cardboard Castles, or LEGO City, these one-day camps are great as stand-alone experiences or as additions to your child’s week of camp with us.
