With summer quickly approaching, now is the time to sign your kids up for a summer science program or two. I usually teach one each summer and the kids have a blast! Summer science programs are a great way to keep your kids involved in science while school is out. There are many things you can do as a parent, but official science programs can extend that learning past what a typical non-science parent can achieve. Granted, most programs will have a sign-up fee, but trust me, it is well worth the cost.
If you're not sure where to begin, start by contacting or checking out the web page of nearby museums, schools, libraries, and colleges. If that isn't successful, do a Google search for science programs and science camps in your area. I'd be surprised if you didn't find something.
If for some reason that doesn't find you anything, look for science experiments you can do on your own with your child(ren). A great site to begin is
Steve Spangler Science Experiments..
