Bolingbrook Park District SCIENCE
programs make learning fun!

With science programs introduced to kids as early as two years, kids are introduced to things like engineering, physics, math, chemistry and more! Older kids will explore their interests and do things like build Minecraft worlds, build robots, learn about space, rockets and race cars, all using STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math). These engaging and sometimes repeatable classes teach kids to problem solve, work in groups and have fun doing hands-on experiments.

Discover the world of Artificial Intelligence through fun, hands-on projects using MIT’s Scratch. This beginner-friendly course blends creativity, coding, and real-world tech to spark curiosity and build future-ready skills. Kids will learn what AI is and how it works in everyday life, how computers make decisions and recognize patterns, how to train simple AI models using Scratch. Some experience in Scratch is helpful, but not necessary. Students should be familiar with using a computer.

200340 / Minecraft Engineering

Does your child love Minecraft? Imagine if children learn Civil Engineering and City Planning while they are in a Minecraft world. Students work as civil engineers and city planners to design and create a structured city that includes roads, bridges, and city zones containing housing, stores, libraries, schools and more. Minecraft Java Edition is used in the classroom as the tool for hands-on learning. We inspire future Engineers using Minecraft. Students should be familiar with using a computer, mouse and Minecraft.
