The wonder of science comes alive during the National Museum of Nuclear Science & History’s Science is Everywhere Science Kids Camps. Learn more about robots, biology, forensics, engineering, chemistry, physics, weird science, and more.
Our Science is Everywhere Camps nurture curiosity. With fun, creative activities, we aim to answer your children's questions about the world, ignite their imaginations, and possibly spark a future career in STEM.
The museum offers camps during the APS break schedules, including Veterans Day, Fall Parent/Teacher Conference Days, Winter Break, Spring Break, and Summer Break. All in-service camps are for grades Kindergarten through 6th grade. Summer camps are available for students in grades Pre-K through 6th grade. Our education team divides camp topics into single-day or week-long camps, offering multi-age, collaborative camper experiences from 7:30 am to 5:30 pm. Campers must bring their own lunch, two snacks, and a refillable water bottle.
