The Science Detectives – A Four-Session STEM Series

Participants will experiment with developing inventions using the SCAMPER method; play “Robot and Programmer” games to understand coding principles and computational thinking; build bridges and towers to explore structural strength and engineering principles; and conduct density and buoyancy experiments involving boat design and material testing. For children ages 6–9. Parents do not need to accompany their children inside the classroom, but must remain present in the laboratory area.

You are invited to Scientific Detectives—a STEM series consisting of four sessions.

During the activity, children will engage in inventive thinking, construction, scientific inquiry, and simulations from the world of programming. They will learn to work as a team, break down complex challenges, and develop original solutions through experimentation, trial and error, and continuous improvement. Each session combines play, inquiry, and creativity in a way that strengthens confidence, curiosity, and independent thinking. Activities include developing inventions using the SCAMPER method; “Robot and Programmer” games to understand coding principles and the importance of precise instructions; building bridges and towers to explore structural strength and engineering principles; and buoyancy and density experiments involving boat design and material testing. The series concludes with a final project in which the children turn an idea into reality—a practical, enjoyable, and meaningful experience that provides tools they can use well beyond the sessions.

For children ages 6–9. Parents do not need to accompany their children inside the classroom, but must remain present in the laboratory area.

The workshop includes four sessions, each lasting one and a half hours.

Cost: 450 NIS (for residents of Yehud-Monosson: 400 NIS).
