MAD SCIENCE SUMMER CAMP PROGRAMS
Mad Science of Western New England is the leading science enrichment provider in the region. Since 1998, we have been providing fun, innovative STEM programs for kids! Our unique after school and summer programs are interactive, hands-on & above all, a blast. At Mad Science, we believe that fostering a love for science, technology, engineering and math at a young age will give children the confidence they need to excel in these fields. 


Underground Explorers
8/4-8/8
Updated Schedule:
8:30-11:30 AM- Ages 5-10

During this week-long program, your explorer will learn about archaeology and the techniques scientists use to excavate long lost cities! We will discover ancient civilizations and the tools and artifacts they used in everyday life! The JR Archaeologists will also study bone fragments, pottery shards, amber deposits, and fossils to understand what they can tell us about history! What’s more, each class includes a make and take-home project, like a fossil reproduction, an amber time capsule, and coins from around the world!
