From keeping food at the right temperature to powering TVs to allowing long-distance communication, electricity is an important part of modern life! Spend a day at the Lab exploring energy and how it powers our lives.
In It’s Electric!, campers will:
-Assemble their own circuits to power a load like a light, buzzer, or motor
-Learn about conductors and insulators and how they impact the electrical currents
-Wire a dazzling light-up creation to take home
-Get up close and personal with our Van de Graaff generator, and feel the hair-raising static electricity it produces
