>> SIGN UP FOR WAITING LIST HERE! <<

The Santa Fe Children’s Museum offers many opportunities for children (Ages 5 – 8) to continue their learning when school is out! Campers are enchanted by our weekly themes and educated through art, science, and play each day!

This jam-packed program includes STEAM activities led by our experienced museum educators, special private playtimes both inside and out, and special community guests!

Week 1 (June 12th-16th) - Prehistoric Planet Explorers- Travel through time to a world before humans: Investigate prehistoric plant life, find fossils, learn about lava, and follow ancient tracks on this geological journey.

Week 2 (June 19th-June 23rd) - Underwater Explorers- Leave land behind: Examine all aspects of the hydrosphere. Create your own coral reef, put wheels on a whale, dig for shark teeth and see with a snorkel as we dive into deep fun.

Week 3 (June 26th-June 30th) - Forest Explorers- Climb new heights of knowledge and imagination as we unearth the magic world of the forest floor and its folklore. Discover new species, make shelter, forage food, and wildcraft fairy crowns as we study this stunning biome and its woodland fantasy worlds.

Week 4 (July 10th-14th) - Outer Space Explorers- 3-2-1 Blast off! An out of this world expedition to learn about stars, galaxies, and worlds beyond our own. Excavate Ice orbs, fabricate a model spacecraft and design your own astronaut attire as we gravitate towards understanding the immensity and beauty of our universe.

Week 5 (July 17th-21st) - Lego Explorers- Let’s go Legos! Unleash your inner engineer as we learn with Legos. Make machines that move, design your dream house, get technical with gears and pose for minifig portraits as you become a Lego Master brick by brick.

Week 6 (July 24th-28th) - Pirate Explores- Prepare for peril as we embark on an adventure across the seven seas. Sharpen your sword, and your skills, as we build boats, track treasure, curate costumes, and put on our own pirate play! Children’s theater coach, Abby Cole, joins us every afternoon to bring our swashbuckling stories to life.
