Winter Break Magic: Science World Camps Are Back!

Science World is running their incredible 3-day Winter Camps this coming December, and this year's theme is absolutely perfect: Magic & Illusions. Kids won't just watch magic tricks—they'll learn how to perform them AND understand the science behind why they work.

What Makes This Camp Special?

Ever wonder what happens behind the magician's curtain? Now's every child's chance to find out! At Winter Science Camp, they'll unlock the science, psychology, and secrets behind mind-bending magic tricks and illusions. Campers will learn to demystify classic tricks and go home ready to amaze with brain-tickling feats of "magic," all backed by real science.

Each day is packed with hands-on learning, live science shows, gallery exploration, teamwork activities, and tons of surprises. Everything they create, they bring home—so get ready for impromptu magic shows at dinner!

What Kids Will Experience

Learn Real Magic Tricks
Children will master classic illusions, card tricks, and mind-bending magic. They'll discover ancient tricks with modern twists and learn the psychology behind why magic fools our brains. Best part? They'll perform these tricks at home!

Exclusive Science Shows & Gallery Access 
Campers get behind-the-scenes access to Science World's live shows and full exploration of all the interactive galleries. They'll see how illusions are created and even make their own special illusion crafts to take home.


Hands-On Learning Through Play 
From "mind-reading" activities to feats of "strength," every day brings unexpected surprises. Kids practice teamwork, solve problems, and build skills through fun games—all while learning real scientific concepts about physics, psychology, and observation.

New Friends & Lasting Memories
There's something magical about learning alongside other curious kids. Campers make new friends, gain confidence performing their tricks, and create memories (and skills!) that last long after winter break ends.
