Hidden Valley 4-H Camp : Mini-Residential Week 4

Week 4: Science Experiment Week get ready to put on your lab goggles and unleash your inner scientist! This exciting, hands-on week is all about curiosity, discovery, and jaw-dropping experiments that make science come alive. Campers will explore the wonders of astronomy, gazing at the night sky to learn about planets, stars, and constellations, and discovering how science helps us understand the universe beyond our campfire.

Throughout the week, campers will dive into thrilling experiments like working with liquid nitrogen, watching everyday objects freeze and react in amazing ways. We’ll mix up strange and fascinating substances such as Oobleck, exploring how it can act like both a solid and a liquid, and create explosive fun with elephant toothpaste, learning about chemical reactions through foam-filled excitement. Campers will also step into the future with robotics, designing, building, and programming simple robots while developing problem-solving and teamwork skills.

Science Experiment Week is packed with safe, supervised experiments, creative challenges, and plenty of “wow” moments. Whether campers are stargazing, building robots, or making a mess in the name of science, this week encourages questions, experimentation, and a lifelong love of learning—all while having an absolute blast at camp.
