Discover the Wonders of Science with Science Investigators
Our science camp provides children entering 3rd – 5th grades with a unique opportunity to explore and engage in the wonders of science through hands-on learning and STEM education.
Summer Science Camps
Science Investigators is a small group summer science camp based in Northbrook, Illinois. This science camp offers a variety of different week-long STEM and science camps which show campers many aspects of the scientific method.
Delivered in Northbrook, this summer science camp is close to Glenview, Deerfield, Glencoe, Wheeling and surrounding areas in the northern suburbs of Chicago.
Week 1: Design and Engineering
**NO SPOTS LEFT**
Date: June 17th-21st
Time: 1:30-3:30 p.m.
$125*
This week campers will explore the processes of design and engineering. Campers will participate in design challenges where they will learn the basic principles of structural designs that are seen in our everyday lives. Each day is a new design challenge – with the final two days focused on designing and building a catapult and participating in a Catapult Olympics Challenge. They will record observations in a journal.
Week 2: Water and Density
**NO SPOTS LEFT**
Date: June 24-28th
Time: 1:30-3:30 p.m.
$125*
This week campers will explore the question: “What causes objects to sink or float?”
Campers will participate in daily hands-on activities to answer this question. Activities include building tin foil boats, exploring and analyzing density columns, experimenting with cartesian divers, and a water purification challenge. They will record observations in a journal.
Week 3: Living VS Non-living
