Children's Museum @ Saratoga
SCIENCE ENRICHMENT PROGRAMS WITH THE CHILDREN’S MUSEUM AT SARATOGA
 
Don’t miss this terrific opportunity...we are bringing the museum to you!

In partnership with The Children’s Museum at Saratoga, the following enrichment programs will provide a wonderful opportunity for children to learn in a fun and engaging way which nurtures discovery through hands-on, inquiry-based activities. All instructors are trained educators in S.T.E.M./S.T.E.A.M. (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics/Science,Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics).

COVID19 REQUIREMENTS
  • All participants must wear face masks and provide their own
  • Participants should take their temperature before leaving for the program. If a participant’s temperature reads 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit or higher, they will be disallowed from participation in the program.
  • All participants will be socially distanced
  • Upon entry to the program, participants will have their temperature (non-touch) taken and a brief COVID-19 assessment completed
  • Participants will use hand sanitizer at entry/exit points and throughout the program, as needed
  • Only registered participants will be allowed to enter the programming areas.

Kids Who Code
  • This unique program uses hands-on activities to teach the fundamentals of coding.
  • Students will learn about binary code, computational thinking, algorithms, and processing.
  • Your students will then put their knowledge to the test when they are challenged to build a robot using Cubelets or magnetic blocks that, when fastened together, form the basis of a simple machine.
  • They can move, light up, make noise, and more.

Motion Madness
  • This popular program is back!
  • This physics program teaches students about motion through a series of hands-on experiments that test speed, friction, and other variables of force.
  • Using the knowledge from these experiments, students are then challenged to build a roller coaster!

Additional Program Information
*PLEASE NOTE: Your child may stay at Gurney Lane Pavilion if registered for Kids Who Code and Motion Madness programs. Adult supervision will be provided during the half-hour break between the classes and children may bring a nut-free snack and drink.
