🎉Another exciting day of STEM exploration at Museum Mania Camp!
Campers focused on strategy, teamwork, and fair play as they explored the Big Games exhibit, tackling challenges that encouraged cooperation, critical thinking, and problem-solving. They put their engineering skills to work by designing and building their own marble runs, then tested their creativity and teamwork during the Cup Challenge. We also enjoyed exclusive time exploring the museum exhibits, and wrapped up the day with another amazing visit from Professor Chills, whose electrifying Tesla coil demonstration had everyone fascinated by the science of electricity. ⚡️
It was another day full of hands-on learning, discovery, and summer fun! 😁

✨️ Community partnerships help make new experiences possible, and we`re honored to have The Naso Organization by our side.
Their longstanding commitment to the Staten Island Children`s Museum has helped create spaces where children can play, explore, and learn through hands-on discovery. From supporting our House About It exhibit to helping bring our new Explore Staten Island exhibit to life this October, their generosity continues to enrich the lives of families across our community.
We are grateful for The Naso Organization`s investment in inspiring the next generation of curious learners and making the Museum a place where every visit sparks imagination. 🙏

🌟 Another fun-filled day of STEM adventures at Museum Mania Camp!
With the extreme heat, we kept cool by spending extra time exploring the museum exhibits and just enough time outside to enjoy the sprinklers and games in the meadow. Campers put their engineering skills to work by designing sturdy structures and then testing them with homemade wrecking balls to see whose creations could withstand the challenge! 👷♀️
We also explored simple machines and engineering concepts in House About It and put our building skills to the test in the Play Gallery.
We wrapped up the day on a high note, dancing, laughing, and working up a sweat with Tina from Zumba Kids! 🕺

⚡️What an electrifying day at Museum Mania Camp!
Campers explored the science of electricity during a special visit from @conedison, then put their engineering skills to the test by designing and building colorful windmills, creating with the Rigamajig building system, and experimenting with our Magnetic House. With the museum all to ourselves, we explored Portia`s Playhouse and House About It, cooled off in the sprinklers, and enjoyed games in the meadow. 🦋🌞
We wrapped up the day with an exciting visit from Professor Chills, where campers discovered the surprising science behind static electricity. It was another day packed with hands-on STEM exploration, creativity, and fun!
