CODING & ROBOTICS -
In this camp, students will learn about different kinds of robots and how they are built! The goal is to introduce participants to each different component that makes a robot work and how they all work together in order to make a robot accomplish a task. From robots that dance, to robots that work in factories - join us in exploring this subset of mechatronics! Students will learn about and use many robotics components, including various sensors, motors, and wires, as well as basic programming techniques. This camp will give students context about real-world robotics projects, career paths, and role models while providing fun and exciting activities and games.
July 17th - 21st, 2023
MINI MEDICAL SCHOOL -
Do you enjoy helping others? Is it your dream to become a doctor? The Long Island Explorium is excited to bring back its Mini Med-School camp again this summer! Children will learn about different disciplines in the field of medicine, and understand a rewarding profession that is driven by service and makes a positive impact in people's lives!
We are excited to share that Virginia Ledford and her team from Port Jefferson EMS will be joining our Mini Medical School camp. They will be providing our young learners with invaluable insights, personal work experiences, and vast medical knowledge. The session will be interactive, with demonstrations of CPR techniques on a mannequin, and children will also get the opportunity to experience an up-close view of an EMS truck. Get ready for an unforgettable experience!
July 24th - 28th, 2023
PALEONTOLOGY -
This program will teach students about the field of paleontology and its current day career applications. Throughout the week, students will explore the different branches of paleontology and how earth has changed its living creatures overtime. Each day, students will investigate a different dinosaur from the past and their adaptations to different environments. At the end of camp, students will become young paleontologists and archaeologists themselves and will explore, dig for and analyze fossils. This camp will be held indoors and outdoors.
July 31st- August 4th, 2023

"Our daughter, age 7, participated in a recent STEM exercise via group ZOOM call. We really like how the teacher, challenged the children to think about the problem and alternative solutions. Amazingly well done, start to finish. If you are looking to add to your child's experience in science, this is it."
"My child is enjoying the program very much. For her it is something interesting to look forward aside her school work, in which she is losing interest now."
"So you definitely did something right in instilling a confidence and a desire for inquiry in them that I haven’t seen before. The experience definitely exposed them to something more than they would have had in their district and yes I teach science but what you did surpassed the standards. There is a silver lining in this storm of remote learning."
