Campers receive their own medical bag with supplies and a copy of the "Goodnight, Little Doctor" book, providing a tangible way to continue their learning and exploration at home.
Mini Medical School by Club SciKidz offers an engaging, hands-on exploration into the world of medicine for young, curious minds. Campers delve into human anatomy and physiology, learning about body systems, organs like the heart, lungs, and brain, and the importance of hygiene. Through interactive activities, they build functional lung models, create brain models, assemble skeleton models, and learn about the skin. The curriculum also covers basic first aid, including splinting and safe syringe use, and introduces campers to the ethical aspects of patient care. A significant portion of the camp focuses on understanding germs and practicing effective handwashing through experiments like the "Glitter Germ." Campers gain practical skills by building their own first aid kits and using stethoscopes. The program aims to spark an early interest in STEM and healthcare careers, fostering confidence and empathy through role-playing as doctors and caregivers. Each camper receives a medical bag with supplies and a copy of the book "Goodnight, Little Doctor" to reinforce learning.
A typical day includes multiple science rotations with engaging hands-on activities and experiments, snack breaks, and outdoor team and skill-building activities. Campers participate in all-camp science demonstrations and have lunch and recess.
This camp is ideal for young children aged 4-6 who are curious about the human body, enjoy pretend play and role-playing, and love hands-on activities and storytelling.
