Why Should Your Kid Attend Science Camp?
Winter, Spring and Summer breaks allow for more comprehensive hands on science programs where campers focus on one central science theme at each camp.
Mr. Bond’s Science Guys’ mission is to prove that science is fun, cool and easy! Our science camps inspire a lifelong enthusiasm for science and learning and teach creative problem-solving skills, teamwork, and perseverance in a fun, kid friendly setting. Watch camp videos!
The camps are perfect for ages 5-12, offered as half day or full day and may include sibling discounts.
This summer we are offering both in-person and virtual summer camps! Both options include tons of awesome hands-on science experiments! Virtual camps include a science kit sent to your home! Find out more about virtual camps here!

Reviews
“Thanks so much for all that you are doing to help keep children engaged in science during remote learning. We love your videos and would love for you to come back to our school for an assembly when we return!”
“My daughter has participated in almost every camp and after school program offered. She started at the age of 5 and is now 11. She learned a tremendous amount of detail about everything from electricity to chemical reactions and continues to be fascinated by anything scientific. She constantly asks me to check to see which camps and clubs are being offered as she wants to hit them all! Thank you, Mr. Bond and the Science Guys for making science fun and for being such a big part of my daughter’s education in all things science!

“My daughter loved the camp!!! Great experience!!! My son loved the same camp 7 years ago! ”
