We offer programs for children ages 3-12, with classes and activities tailored to different developmental stages. Our youngest scientists (3-4 years old) have specially designed programming, while elementary-aged children have age-appropriate STEM challenges.

Our after-school science classes run weekly throughout the school year in sessions lasting 11-12 weeks each. We offer three age-based groups: Preschool (ages 3-4) with 60-minute classes focused on foundational science exploration and sensory experiments; Ages 5-7 with 1.5-hour classes featuring elementary science and collaborative projects; and Ages 8-10 with 1.5-hour classes offering advanced STEM challenges and deeper scientific investigation. Sessions align with the NYC school calendar, typically running Fall (September-December), Winter/Spring (January-April), and Spring (April-June). Registration requires enrollment for the full session to ensure continuity of learning, though we can accommodate mid-session joins with prorated tuition, subject to availability. We provide all materials, lab coats, and safety equipment—students just need comfortable clothes and closed-toe shoes. One makeup class per session is available with 24-hour notice, and each session concludes with a family showcase where students demonstrate what they’ve learned. Registration opens online 2-3 weeks before each session starts, and spots fill quickly, so early enrollment is recommended.

Yes! Our science-themed birthday parties include a dedicated party host, age-appropriate experiments, hands-on activities, and access to our science toy store. Parties are available for various age groups and can be customized to your child’s interests.

We offer full-day summer camp sessions with weekly themes that explore STEM topics such as chemistry, physics, robotics, and environmental science. Each week features unique experiments, projects, and field trip opportunities.

Most of our weekly classes and programs require pre-registration to ensure proper materials and staffing. However, we occasionally offer drop-in science workshops—check our schedule or contact us for availability.

Yes! We welcome school groups, scout troops, and other organizations for educational field trips. Our programs can be customized to align with curriculum standards and include interactive demonstrations and hands-on experiments.

We recommend comfortable clothing that can get messy! While we provide lab coats and safety goggles, some experiments may involve paint, water, or other materials. Closed-toe shoes are required for safety.

They’re both! Every activity at Brooklyn Science Spot combines hands-on fun with meaningful learning. Through exciting science experiments, engineering challenges, robotics, and creative problem-solving, children develop critical thinking, teamwork, and communication skills while having an amazing time. Our goal is to make learning so engaging that kids don’t even realize how much they’re discovering.

Absolutely! Siblings are welcome to participate together whenever the program or activity is appropriate for their ages. We group children based on age and developmental level to ensure everyone has the best possible experience. If you have questions about a specific program, our team is happy to help you find the best fit for your family.

Yes! Our birthday parties are private events designed exclusively for your child and invited guests. Every celebration includes exciting hands-on STEM activities led by our experienced instructors, creating a fun, interactive, and memorable experience for everyone. We offer several party themes and packages to help make your child’s special day unforgettable.

Yes! We offer exciting STEM programs throughout the year during school holidays, winter break, spring break, and summer vacation. Our holiday camps and summer programs give children the opportunity to continue learning, exploring, and making new friends while school is out. Program availability may vary, so we recommend registering early as spaces often fill quickly.

Most of our programs provide all the materials needed for hands-on STEM activities. We recommend that children wear comfortable clothing suitable for active learning and creative exploration. Depending on the program, bringing a water bottle and a light snack may also be helpful. Any specific requirements will be shared with parents before the program begins.
