Our 6yo son has been to at least 12 different camps this year, and this was the best one by far. There are so many great things about it that set it apart from other camps.
The content is engaging and fun, and the pace and variety are just right - enough to keep things interesting, but not so much to make it stressful or confusing. Our son learned a lot and he enjoyed every minute. If you have a budding geek, they're going to love it.
Unlike most camps, they provide snacks and optional lunches. They also offer early care and/or after-care, from 8:30 to 6, which is fantastic for parents who work 9-5. After-care is not just "daycare", but additional interesting, engaging and fun lessons. Every day when we picked up our son at 6, he was still immersed in the lesson.
The staff is friendly and great at working with kids. The manager Irene not only gave kids lunches and snacks, but went to great lengths to make sure that our son ate enough food and that he got the kind of food that he likes to eat. This is an exceptional level of caring that one might expect only from a loving parent.
The place is clean and the classrooms are small. This is so much better than most camps where high student-teacher ratios can lead to chaos and even safety issues. This place is exceptionally peaceful and safe, and kids get a lot more attention from the teachers.
Overall this camp not only met our expectations in the best possible way, but also exceeded them in so many ways.

I know they are a chain company that has won many awards. My kids attended their events and met the teachers and coaches, who are fun and, most importantly, very friendly with children
My two kids joined last week's event. Both of them had lots of fun.
