Summer
JOIN THE QUEST!
All children ages 3 years old through 4th grade are welcome. We offer Primary Camp for 3 to 6 year olds—information below. In addition we offer Leadership Camp for 1st through 4th graders, or Toddler Summer Camp for 18 months to 3 years old.
Spend the summer discovering science. Enroll your child in Discovery in the Hills and spark interest in observation, investigation and the magic of science. Children learn to find possible answers to the questions they are curious about. Motivating them to ask why, what and how is part of the joy of discovery.
