Hands-on exploration and interactive stories engage children as they learn about science, language, engineering, art, mathematics, and social skills.

Your child’s health, and the health of our staff, is of the utmost importance. Our team has made modifications to our building, exhibits and summer camp practices in accordance with public health guidelines and industry best practices. In particular, we will follow Restore Illinois COVID-19 2020 Day Camp guidelines. Protocols may be updated based on guidance from local, state and CDC guidelines.
