If your child loves exploring, creating, and experimenting, you’ll want to check out the expanded School’s Out Science Camp lineup from Da Vinci Science Center this spring! These aren’t your typical Saturday programs — they’re hands-on, high-energy learning experiences in the Fab Lab where kids can build, code, invent, and engineer their way through exciting challenges.
Each session is a standalone experience — that means you only need to register for the date that works best for your schedule, and each theme will be offered twice.

🎮 Pocket Arcade
📅 March 14 or April 11
Let your child dive into the world of coding by building their very own portable video game using MakerCode Arcade.

Kids will learn basic game logic, interactive design, and have a blast bringing their ideas to life on a device they can take home!
🤖 Talk to Tech: Adventures in AI
📅 March 21 or April 18
In this interactive camp, campers get to explore artificial intelligence tools and use custom electronics to build a smart device project right in the Fab Lab. This session makes emerging tech accessible and fun — no experience required!
🚀 Mission: Rescue Rovers
📅 March 28 or May 2
Future engineers, this one’s for you! Kids will design and build a LEGO-powered rescue rover capable of traversing rough terrain to save a stranded astronaut. This challenge blends creativity with engineering principles and hands-on construction tools.
✨ Why These Camps Are Worth It
- Each session is hands-on and engaging, not lecture-based.
- Designed for grades 3–8 with activities tailored to growing STEM skills.
- Perfect for curious kids who love problem-solving and building things with their hands.
Whether your child is just getting started with coding or wants to stretch their engineering skills, these Saturday experiences are a fun way to spend a spring weekend.
