Blast off into adventure! In this camp, first graders will train like astronauts as they plan a mission to the Moon. We’ll launch stomp rockets, explore the pull of gravity, and figure out what humans need to live on the lunar surface. Along the way, campers will uncover the secrets of the Sun, Moon, and Earth—and imagine what it takes to explore outer space. This camp is the ultimate adventure for kids who dream of becoming astronauts!
