Science Kits/ Topics Offered

AKA Science offers a range of 8 unique science topics that rotate on a 4-year cycle. 

Biology Kit

Green Leaves

Wake up to the call of the wild! Hitch a ride like a seed pod, dissect an owl pellet, and make yeast eat and breathe! Pollinate like a bee, eat like a frog, and buzz like an insect. From shark teeth to camel feet, from blubber to camouflage, living things are full of surprising adaptations that defy all odds! Join us on a quest to discover the amazing circle of life!

Colorful Bubbles

Light up your world with the science of color and light! Bend mirrors, make a kaleidoscope, and explore how things glow in the dark! Build a camera obscura, break light into rainbows, create your own sunset, and uncover the secrets of 3D! Join us as we make model eyes, explore lenses, craft snow goggles, and learn all about amazing fun physics discoveries from around the world!

Earth Science Kit

Animal Fossil

Let’s get ready to rumble! Shake things up and watch the earth dance before your eyes! Catch the wind, create a mini tornado, and witness the power of plate tectonics. Discover hidden rockformations, pull pigment from stone, and make a volcano erupt!

Chemistry Kit

Blue Bubbles

Want to get a reaction? Come join us as we explore the magical world of chemistry! Transform regular liquids into a bubbling lava lamp and make a container burst into the air! Whip up some instant snow, create fantastic flubber, and experiment with awesome acids and bases! You'll be amazed as we reveal solar reactions, get fizzy with elephant toothpaste, and uncover what makes chemistry so cool!

Engineering Kit

Wooden Home Framing

Hop on the design train as we engineer a bridge made out of popsicle sticks, build a tower that defies all odds, make a Ferris wheel spin, and construct a mechanical hand! You'll be racing DIY cars, learning life-saving knots, and designing for an earthquake. Join us as we use ordinary materials in genius ways, and discover how engineering turns ideas into reality!
