Testimonials about the STEAM Program:

"Charlotte loved the program and came home each day excited about the projects or the visit from the clown. She liked the teachers and other kids. The location was convenient for drop off. The camp got Charlotte excited about playing games. She asked when she was coming back when I picked her up on the last day, which is always a good sign."

"This was a successful experience for Dana. We especially appreciated that there were a perfect blend of stimulating and learning activities, outdoor play and a relaxing time in the afternoon. So few other camps get this balance right these days. Dana looked forward to each day ahead of her. We'll definitely be back next year."

"I was impressed with the daily camp activities - I thought all of them were very thoughtfully selected, engaging, age-appropriate and well executed. Having small groups was beneficial for the success of these activities. My son seemed to like the whole variety of projects that he did in camp, in particular - spatial activities (origami, balloon making, working with clay/playdough, construction projects, etc.)."
