Every big idea starts with a tiny spark. This session celebrates invention, creativity, and the science of energy — both inside us and out in the world. Together we will explore light, heat, motion, and sustainable innovation while experimenting with hands-on projects that turn wonder into action. We’ll investigate how ideas catch on, how energy moves through systems, and how collaboration helps sparks grow into something brighter. From glowing experiments to engineering challenges and creative problem-solving, this week encourages campers to take risks, share ideas, and fuel each other’s brilliance. When we work together, sparks become flames — and flames light the way forward. ** This week is a BIGS camp-wide Field Trip Week, offering campers the chance to explore a special destination outside of San Francisco via chartered bus. All locations are familiar, well-loved sites Tree Frog Treks has visited in previous seasons. An additional registration fee supports transportation and entry costs. Please reach out to our team with any field trip questions. It's sure to be a highlight of the camp session! Tree Frog Treks Camps are about exploring nature, meeting animals (live rescued reptiles and amphibians) doing science and art and most of all having fun with our new friends outside. Our credo is: Get Out and Get Dirty! And our motto is: Build a Fort, Climb a Tree, Hold a Bug, and Smell the Sea! As always you can count on us to continue supporting your kids and family with the TFT basics: * Outside everyday * Positive social dynamics * Productive play * Science and nature exploration * Get Out and Get Dirty!
