Thrills and Chills of
Ice Cream Science and History
Ages 6-13
1 Class
Making and eating ice cream is a fun way
to introduce early physics and chemistry
teachings to children. Kids can become an
expert on this beloved treat as we make a batch
of homemade ice cream. Explore the science of
the amusement park treat, Dippin’ Dots, then sit
down for the most outrageous ice cream eating
contest in town. This is a child’s dream class and
all about putting the fun back into learning.
This class explores both Chemical and Industrial
Engineering concepts, along with how this treat
evolved. Don’t wear your Sunday best to this event, we will
get sticky! Instructor: Lisa Lombardi (JK)

science of “splat” during splat ball scatter, and
finally, compare/contrast the properties of
squishy toys to the human body. This is CRAZY
summer fun for kids! Every participant will go

Tween Coaching:
7 “Soft Skills”
Ages 6-13
1 Class
Employers consistently say that our youth aren’t
prepared for the workplace. Communication
and enthusiasm come up as the #1 and #2
missing skills. Developing strong soft skills
like: How to Network, Time Management,
Teamwork, Credit Scores, Problem Solving and
Professionalism may likely result in our youth
surpassing their peers in many areas of life! We
will attack these skills in an entertaining age
appropriate manner that will keep this special
tween/teen age range engaged. This is a drop
off class. Instructor: Lisa Lombardi (JK)
