Junior LEGO Jurassic Park & Junior Circuits

9AM-12PM: Junior LEGO Dinosaurs - Jurassic Park

Did you hear that?!  What was that?!  Was it a lion, a tiger, or a... DINOSAURRRRR!!!  Ahhh!!

LEGO® Dinosaurs - Jurassic Park teaches students all about dinosaurs using the fun of LEGO® bricks!  Kids learn about each of the many kinds of these reptilian beasts there were, as well as their habitats, food supply, Pangea and plate tectonics, volcanic activity and more.  Our classes play Dinosaur Jeopardy, tell Dinosaur jokes, and build vast Dinosaur landscapes utilizing more than 30,000 LEGO® bricks!  Students work in teams and present their creations to the class, family, and friends!  Super-Fun!

12PM-1PM: Lunch Break

Students should bring nut-free lunch, snacks, and juice to eat and enjoy as they get hungry throughout the day.  Water and restrooms are available.  If weather permits, campers will be taken outside to walk and enjoy the playground nearby.

1PM-4PM: Junior Circuits

Demystify Electricity with this introductory class on Circuits.  Kids are introduced to fundamental concepts in electronics by building small electronic projects.  Students learn about Power, Controls, Logic, and more by building circuits to control lights, sounds, motion, wireless communications, and sensors.  Kids learn about Batteries, LEDs, Speakers, and Motors and help them develop insights into how everyday objects around them work.  Circuits provides “enlightening” hands-on experiences for kids!  

Final Notes

• All Campers are expected to be fully self-sufficient and on respectful behavior at all times.  Students are expected to address any special needs, medications, bathroom responsibilities, and masks and social distancing (if necessary - hopefully not!!) for themselves

• The primary goals in our programs are for a child to have fun, try their best, and enjoy the process of learning. If a child is tired or needs a break or a change of activity, NextGen SmartyPants Teachers are trained to make curriculum changes, adjustments, and modifications, as necessary, in the best interest of the child and the class as a whole. 

• Students are welcome to eat snacks throughout the day and lunch between 12PM-1PM.  'Please' no nuts of any kind may be brought into our maker studio.  

• Please pack an extra change of clothes, just in case of spillage or other accident.

• Early-morning drop-off and/or late-afternoon pickup extended-day options are available.

• Please contact us at any time with any additional clarifications and questions: (860) 272-4000.
