children's day camps
Camp comes in three flavors at the Exploratorium: summer, Saturday, and spring. Each of our programs offer playful and creative opportunities for children, ages 5–14, to explore the world around them using a mix of science activities, art and group projects, group games, our vast exhibit collection, and more. Our programs balance curiosity-driven free time with content-based activities that incorporate both structured and open-ended, self-directed learning. And, of course, we make it fun!

Day Camp Programs are an exclusive benefit available only to children and grandchildren of current Members of the Exploratorium. Click here to learn more about Membership benefits or to join.

NEW! Do you love summer camp? Now, you can come to camp all year long! Every Saturday includes free exploration in the Exploratorium before it opens it the public, exciting activities, and lunchtime by the bay. We’ll do project building with friends, science experiments, art projects, and group games.

Add a Family Workshop
Sign up for a workshop the whole family can enjoy. Add the Heart Dissection Family Investigation Workshop to your Saturday Camp registration and everyone in your family, ages 7 and older, can explore the wonders of the heart—up close and personal! Join us on February 13 at 2:30 p.m. (after the third Saturday Camp) as we celebrate Valentine’s Day by learning about the organ associated with love. Explainers will demonstrate cuts so that parents can help younger children. Through the dissection and related activities, this class will focus on noticing details discussing the function of each part of the heart.
