Expand Your Child’s Understanding

Archeological digs, building worm composts, and dissecting slimy squids are just some of the science activities campers will learn and do during their summer at Camp Live Oak!

As one of the leaders of hands-on science experiments, Camp Live Oak science instructors will educate and entertain campers on a daily basis with amazing projects covering various subjects from dinosaurs, space exploration, marine life, to other natural and physical sciences.

Each group is divided into smaller units to ensure that each camper receives the full benefits from each lesson. Combined with educational animal shows and ranger led hikes, campers will surely learn and discover the wonder and beauty of our planet Earth.

Some of the science experiments planned for 2024 include:

Creating paint from all natural ingredients.

Listening to the rhythm of the sounds of nature.

Building a robot to take home.

Exploring estuaries, dip netting for fish and insects, taking water samples and observing the life in the mangroves.

Dissecting sharks, squid and fish to learn about animal morphology.

Releasing butterflies after observing the life cycle of these pollinators.

Measuring crater sizes by simulating meteor impacts.
