Overall, was dissapointed with the experience at the camp. For $450 a week (a credit we had after…read morethey went bankrupt before) I was hoping our son would be excited each day to return and want to go back again next summer and that just wasn't the case. After the second day, my son didn't want to return. We had him continue, but that's never a great sign and he's used to being in camp most of the summer and its very social. The camp seems to be outside majority of the day. This wasn't higlighted anywhere when we signed up and pictures showed a real mix of indoor outdoor. It's just a lot for the age group in 85+ temps daily - he was just wiped out each day and a big reason he didn't want to return was because he was in the sun all day doing the work. He was also filthy each day, coated in dirt not paint which is fine but was unexpected for a STEM camp. Most camps spend a lot of time outside, but when you are on the campus of a school you typically find a better mix. They did have a water day, but from what we heard the time with water play was really limited. Communication before camp seemed good, we got a camp guide with high level info. After camp started, there was nothing other than what our son shared each day. That is fine, other than the fact two of the days they had themed dress days - makes it hard the night before to ensure your son has a specific color shirt or an amusement themed shirt. Knowing this in advance would help. I also called once to clarify how to dress for the water day since our son was told to wear clothing over his bathing suit which makes sense for a girl but weird for a boy - when I asked Sam the camp director if he should come wearing it and just bring a change of clothes he rudely told me no change of clothes "they are playing outside and it's the Valley, they will dry" - as if I'm unaware of where I sent him to camp. He swims daily at camp normally and always has a change of clothes. Again, just seems they can't use the facilities of the school or don't want to deal so things are just a bit odd.

Our son has been attending Camp Galileo for the past few years and we can't say enough good things…read moreabout it! For our bright son, we view summer-time as his time to learn in a different mindset than school generally encourages - exploring collaborative ideas and hands-on experiences versus focusing on finished products and individual efforts. The inventor's mindset at the heart of Galileo's curriculum encourages collaboration, continuous learning and critical thinking, while exposing young campers to concepts and ideas about the world around them. Our son comes home from camp fired up to rethink the world around him, innovate, problem solve, create, build, and engineer - not just during the summer, but all year through. The camp director (Shannon), staff, and counselors are amazing - professional, tons of fun, and very well educated. They are so knowledgeable in child development, social skills, and excel at supporting unique learners. Our experience has been that they provide exceptional support for twice exceptional (2e), gifted and ADHD children. This past summer, our son's counselor suggested pairing him up with a very focused and social buddy in his group, who by being my son's partner helped to keep my little guy on task and also provided a great social support. While he loved camp already, that experience was just what he needed and made this summer even better than the last - and solidified our son's desire to attend again this summer. It's the little things like that which are above and beyond other camps. The ratio of campers to counselors is ideal and the small groups allow for each camper to receive the attention they need. Friday camp close activities are also a favorite of our son. Parents get to hear from Shannon about what the campers worked on and our son gets to show off the workshops in each classroom and all the fabulous things he and new friends worked on all week. That day he brings his projects home, where he continues to be inspired to tweak them or make them into something entirely new over the next few weeks. We also love that the camp is a nice mix of indoor/outdoor activities. Let's face it, the Valley is excruciatingly hot during the summer months. The campers are outside enough to get some physical activity and vitamin D from the sun, but spend a good portion in the AC classroom workshops where they work on science and art projects. These projects aren't your run-of-the-mill camp crafts. They are well-designed projects that give the children opportunities to collaborate, innovate, and solve problems. They provide developmentally age-appropriate challenges for the children that provide a real feeling of accomplishment and pride at the end of the week. As a mom and a child development advocate and educator, I can't recommend Camp Galileo enough. It's a truly unique camp experience! The weeks our son has spent at camp the last few years have strengthened his social skills, creativity, critical thinking, and problem solving skills. Plus, he has an awesome time! ;)

The staff was…read moreattentive, everything was colorful and inspiring, and there were so many unique materials to create with. It truly felt like a magical creative space. Unfortunately, our visit today was a completely different experience. Most of the interesting craft supplies we remembered. fun stones, colorful glass gems, unique trinkets, ribbons , sparkly stuff and creative materials were gone. Instead, the crafting area was mostly filled with things like pipe cleaners, scraps, cardboard, paper clips, boxes, stickers and other everyday items that you could easily find at home and def not worth $50 an hour. We also noticed very young toddlers wandering around, banging on projects and breaking things, which made it difficult for older kids to enjoy the space and didn't feel very organized. It honestly felt like the studio had lost a lot of the creativity and magic that made us fall in love with it in the first place. I really hope they bring back the unique materials and imaginative atmosphere they used to have, because it was once such a special place

We know we wanted to do some kind of art party but wanted to be unique. We found that at Art Rebel for a glow in the dark art party. Ponti, the owner, made this birthday so special for our 6 year old and all her friends. From the beginning he was so easy to work with and very communicative. Ponti has kids birthday parties down to a science with different activities planned out that all the kids loved! Him and his team handled it all while we got to relax and chat with other parents. On top of that, we didn't have to worry about goodie bags because all the kids went home with a couple pieces of glow in the dark art that they made. There was a separate, and massive, room for food and drinks so when cake cutting came around it was so easy. Also he made setting up and packing up so easy. If you're looking for something different and special for your kid's birthday, I can't highly recommend Art Rebel Studio enough!

My son's aide (my son is disabled) said it could have been a casino given the smell. This was true for the two days he attended. We won't be finishing the week despite paying for it. Pretty sure smoking inside that building is illegal and definitely shouldn't be allowed right before kids come in. The instructor also left the room entirely several times for 15-20 min. While my son's aide was there, he is not an employee of the camp and should not be responsible for the other children present. Besides those issues, the camp itself was very underwhelming with minimal activities planned beyond drawing. We have done art camps at half the cost that put much more thought into it and didn't lead to lung damage from smoke inhalation.
