A special highlight is the annual summer camp "Movement, Action, and Technology", organized in collaboration with the zdi centers Rhein-Berg and Leverkusen.
For a week, children aged 10 to 12 experience exciting STEM adventures at extraordinary learning locations in the region. Technology, natural sciences, and sustainability are combined with movement, teamwork, and shared leisure activities. In addition to experiments and workshops, excursions, creative activities, and many shared experiences are on the program.
In the LVR Open-Air Museum, children can expect a diverse program. Program highlights include a visit to the historic Peters Farm, where children will discover how milk was processed in the past and present. They will gain insights into life before electrification, and hands-on activities such as rope making await them. Explorations through a scavenger hunt and creative activities are also part of the program.
At the Leverkusen City Library, everything revolves around robotics. Children build cool robots with Lego Spike and navigate Dash robots through an obstacle course. At the BayArena, home of the Bayer 04 Leverkusen football club, children can approach the pitch and sit on the coach's bench. Fun and games await the children at the CaLEVornia leisure pool.
The LVR Industrial Museum Paper Mill Alte Dombach becomes a creative playground! Through paper making, marbling, printing, folding, and more, children can freely experiment, make their own decisions, and see how ideas turn into real creations. At the NaturGut Ophoven, children can explore the diversity of life in ponds and streams and investigate the soil beneath their feet. On a journey into the underworld, children will recognize how valuable fertile soils are to us and seek solutions to preserve and protect them in the future.
During a visit to the extracurricular learning center :metabolon, children will learn more about the topic of plastics, how secondary raw materials are produced, why microplastics pose an environmental problem, and how they end up in the environment.
