Calling all mini scientists! This engaging 4-week program invites preschool aged children (4-5 years) and their caregivers to explore science through real scientific enquiry methods. Each session is designed to be fun and interactive, encouraging curiosity and discovery.
Throughout the weeks, children will collect and classify objects, measure and record data, conduct experiments, and finally showcase their learning at a Science Fair and Graduation. It’s a wonderful way to spark a love of science early on.
Caregivers act as lab assistants, making this a shared learning adventure that strengthens bonds while fostering scientific thinking.
