Get ready to leap, dodge, and explore the explosive world of volcanoes during this action-packed week of lava-themed learning! Campers will kick off with colorful eruptions, lava lamp drawings, and the first of five thrilling lava obstacle courses—each one different from the last! They'll dive into dinosaur number games, explore whether animals could live in a volcano, and create swirling marble volcano art. Midweek brings detective work at Mount St. Helens, hands-on volcano building, and mountain-transforming science fun. Campers will then race through a cup-stacking challenge, pack emergency gear in a fast-paced relay, and cause mini volcano explosions using safe, bubbling ingredients. The week wraps up with creative dinosaur crafts, a sweet strawberry volcano treat, and one last chance to escape the lava!
