Teddy’s packing for an adventure to
find out what it takes to be a scientist.
Embark on a journey with your new
stuffed friend, Teddy, and explore
the world of science careers! Each
evening, Teddy will venture out to make
discoveries and then return to share
photos, activities and stories with you
the next day. Practice treating Teddy’s
ouches at the doctor’s office and don
your parka for a scientific expedition to
the Arctic! Investigate animals with a
zookeeper, and then design an airplane
to soar through the clouds with a pilot.
At the end of the week of exploration,
Teddy will be ready to join you at home
for adventures of your own!
Dip for aquatic creatures, search the
wetlands for animal signs and discover
hidden burrows as you find out
fascinating facts about residents of the
Slough. Did you know that owls can
fly without making a sound, dragonfly
nymphs use water-jet propulsion and a
bunny’s ears are for more than listening?
Investigate how pond dwellers breathe
underwater and why some feathered
fowl have peculiar beaks and oddlyshaped feet. Join us for a week of
discovery into how hidden habitats and
awesome oddities help creatures survive!
We have found a treasure map left
behind by the Pirate of Polliwog Pond!
We need your help to follow the map
and find the treasures of the wetlands.
Work with your treasure hunting team to
solve puzzles and riddles that will direct
you as you hunt for natural resources
outside. Practice reading and creating
maps while combing the trails for the
plants, rocks and water that make the
wetlands so unique. By the end of the
week, your treasure chest will be filled
with special objects to take home!

Rock ‘n’ Science with
EMP Museum
Discover the science behind sound in
this amped up week! At EMP Museum,
artists will take you on a tour to
explore rock ‘n’ roll and hip-hop. Join
a group and form a band by picking a
name. Then perform in front of virtual
screaming fans and col­laboratively
compose a song recorded for family and
friends. Experi­ment with electric guitars,
keyboards, theremins and tuning forks.
Then travel to Pacific Science Center
to explore vibration, pitch and volume
as you investigate your vocal cords and
create your own instru­ments. Find out
how tubes, wind and string combine to
make the sounds of sci­ence. Campers
will spend half of the day at Pacific
Science Center and the other half at

Cooking Up Science
If you’re captivated by carnival rides, this
camp is for you! Delve into pneumatics,
hydraulics, circuits and motors as you
con­struct miniature models of your
favorite amusement park rides. Harness
the forces of gravity to construct roller
coasters with complex loops, twists and
angles, heightening the fear factor while
keeping your marble on the track. No
amusement park is complete without
sweet treats, so use simple machines to
create sno-cones. Twirl, ride, bump and
dive your way into this thrill ride of a camp!
Let’s get cooking! Sharpen your culinary
skills as you make a tortilla, choose the
ingredients for your own smoothie and
experiment to find the perfect way to
cook an egg. Take a trip on the ORGAN
trail and discover what happens to
food after it leaves your mouth. Whip
up a different meal each day — from

Calling all makers and DIY-ers: It’s time
to upcycle our trash into treasure as we
dive into the sustainability of stuff. Visit
the landfill to see what happens when
we throw things away. Then, take steps
to reduce our impacts on the planet.
Practice leaving no trace on hikes, make
your own recycled paper, and turn old
T-shirts into a new rug. Work on a
habitat restoration project to help
impacted spaces recover, and see what
happens when nature re-claims an area.
We CAN make a better world, one

LOVE OUR SUMMER CAMPS?
Pacific Science Center offers many more
exciting opportunities for curious minds
of all ages throughout the year! For more
information or to register for any of these
programs, visit pacificsciencecenter.org or
call (206) 443-2925.
Birthday Parties
Celebrate your birthday with a variety of themed parties for
all ages! The celebration includes a private room complete
with decorations that match your selected party theme.
Experienced staff will dazzle guests with amazing science

The Environmental Science and Technology Practicum and
Environmental Science Pathways programs offer exciting
multi-week sessions for middle and high school students to
explore skills and careers associated with environmental and
clean technologies. Each session includes hands-on research
investigations in field and laboratory settings, as well as direct
exposure to high level professionals in clean technology and
environmental science who share their cutting-edge work and
discuss educational pathways in their respective fields.

CAMPS FOR CURIOUS MINDS « 2016
LOVE OUR SUMMER CAMPS?
Parents’ Night Out
Night Walks
Pacific Science Center offers a series of Parents’ Night Out
events throughout the year. Spend a night out (or in!) while
your child enjoys after-hours exploration of our exhibits,
hands-on activities and a live science, planetarium or laser
light show. Participants will be supervised in age groups by our
experienced and enthusiastic staff all evening.
Once a month, bring your family to examine skulls and
conduct experiments to discover the tricks nocturnal creatures
use to survive at night. Then head out into the dark to listen
for nocturnal creatures and participate in hands-on sensory
activities aimed at exploring the wetland at twilight. Offered
September through May for groups or families with children
ages 5 and up.
Preschools
Pacific Science Center and Mercer Slough Environmental
Education Center offer school year-long play-based preschool
programs for children ages 3–5. Proton Preschool in
downtown Seattle uses science as a catalyst for learning and
discovery. At Proton Preschool students explore the physical
world while utilizing the amazing resources Pacific Science
Center has to offer. Polliwog Preschool in Bellevue utilizes
320 acres of wetlands to explore seasonal themes and daily
activities that meet the developmental needs of early learners,
while fostering a love of nature and learning.
Scouts in the Wild
Scouts in the Wild are after school and weekend programs
targeted at groups of children in grades K–5. These groups
could include scouts, camp fire groups, homeschool
cooperatives or an informal group of friends. The programs
are loosely based on a variety of badge requirements for Girl
Scouts and Boy Scouts, but are fun and educational for any
group interested in a guided hike through the Mercer Slough
Nature Park.
NEW! Tech Workshop Coming This Spring
New to Pacific Science Center for grades 6 – 8, we will offer a
multi-week workshop series on Saturday mornings beginning
in April. Spend time diving deep into a subject and put
your new skills to the test with innovative challenges and
experiments.
