Parent Reviews:

"I felt compelled to write a review here for the Galileo camps as my child went last year and had an AMAZING time. I am sending both kids for multiple weeks this summer. It is an innovation camp - they combine art and science. My child came back learning so much - my favorite being that he didn't get frustrated doing projects, he told me ''you just innovate, you try something else that might work better.'' They also learn a lot about collaboration and working together. They also had a lot of silly outdoor time doing camp songs and other fun ''camp'' things. The staff was absolutely incredible. There were counselors with masters degrees in early child development and art history. They were all really warm, outgoing, super fun, responsible, caring, just totally ''on it''!! The camps are extremely organized and well run and I felt really safe with my child there. Their drop off and pick procedures are great. The biggest thing is my kid really loved it, but I too fell in love; the philosophies of learning and inspiration and innovation come through loud and clear. This is a passionate group of folks that work hard all year to make these summer camps happen. I can't recommend it enough!! They have locations all over and I believe it is pre-K through 8th grade."

"If you're looking for a great summer camp, check out Camp Galileo! Combo of art and science and active outdoor play... great fun! My son participated as an entering kindergartener last summer, and LOVED it. He's really excited to return this summer. Kids participate in grade/age level groups, and each group has their own unique cheer and t-shirts etc. The counselors were SO energetic, far more so than other camps we participated in around Berkeley. From the moment kids arrive, they're whisked into an environment which celebrates learning and creativity and invention and design. It's what I wish ''school'' were like every day!"

"I highly recommend Camp Galileo, which has several locations. My son (currently 2nd grade) attended several sessions of Camp Galileo last summer and I was very impressed with the program. We will be returning again this summer. There is a different theme each week (e.g., Adventures Down Under, the Human Body, etc.) and the program includes science, art, and outdoor components that revolves around the weekly theme. I loved that the program had both classroom and outdoor components each day and thought the curriculum each week was very thoughtful and engaging. The counselors are very enthusiastic--many are studying to be teachers or have background in early childhood development, so you know they are really interested in working with children as opposed to just there for a summer job. And the camp is very well-organized--there are handouts for parents on the first day explaining what will be covered that week and the counselors provide written reports at the end of the program about your specific child and what he/she accomplished. But most importantly, it just seemed like a ton of FUN from the moment you arrive on the first day."
