Camp at the museum for 3rd – 5th graders. This camp remains at the museum and has the children learn skills like sewing, hammering nails, painting, using power tools safely, etc. while building their own wooden house. This is our newest camp that we hope will encourage children to use their imagination while they learn skills they may not encounter in a typical classroom.
