Description

(Not to be confused with our Rainforest after school program. Totally different projects.) Art explorers take their inner artists for a walk in the rainforest and discover a variety of endangered creatures who live there. Lizards and poison dart frogs, bugs and butterflies, tigers and monkeys and more. Learn about the layers of the rainforest while experimenting with a variety of art forms. Experience fabric design while tie dyeing bandannas and making rainbow T-shirts. Sculpt animals out of clay, make 3-D paper reptiles, and create rainforest flowers. Decorate beach balls, draw tigers with oil pastels, and paint ceramic flower pots that look like boots. Discover stained glass and scratch art too.

After that, If a child loves to build things or destroy them, this week includes lots of both! The junior engineers will design & build bridges & "skyscrapers" using simple tools and their imagination. Kids will even construct a geodesic dome big enough for all the campers to sit inside! Then the machine madness starts as they discover, build, and invent simple machines, & solve problems with contraptions.
