Extremely disappointed. My son and his best friends (both are 4) signed up for this summer camp…read moretogether, and after 5 days, they both got kicked out of school. Day 2, the camp director Ms. Gee called saying that my son and his best friend were "play-fighting" all day and it was a destruction for others. She didn't know until after school was over because her staff didn't inform her - and said that she instructed her staff that they needed to tell her right away so that she can talk to the children. I asked her how he was doing otherwise, and she said that he was doing good in the classroom focused and working on his project; also asked if they were hurting other kids, but no, she said that those kids were just this superhero and that superhero and "fighting." I was told that this was the first warning and if the same happens again, they will be asked to not come back to the camp. Although I thought a little weird as that's what the boys do all day long, and it is the adult/teacher's job to guide them and tell them that it is not acceptable - but I showed my support and told her to go ahead and please separate them and put them in the different classrooms to prevent the issue. Sure enough, both kids' parents had a conversation with them and hoped this wouldn't happen again. 5th day, the camp director Gee called again before 12noon saying that my son kicked his best friend and his best friend hit him back, so we need to pick them up immediately and they are not allowed to come back to the camp. We totally understand that our son should never hit other kids under any circumstance - never. We know both kids and do playdates, so we know that sometimes they get carried away and start fighting; but also know that they will be smiling and playing together after 2 min. They are only 4 years old. They will continue to make mistakes, and it is our job to teach them that it is not ok to do so - over and over again. I feel like if you have any experience with little children, one should know how to handle the situation better; but the director seems young, and all of their staff seem teenagers, so they prob do not know how to better handle the situation. They went to the same school for a year, and we didn't get a single complaint from their teacher - of course, I heard they went into time-out from time to time. There is no way they were acting any different than at school or on a playdate, and if you know how to handle young children - especially energetic boys - you know what to do. Let me also note that every day, he comes home without his lunch box, change of clothes, or hat. So, not much organization going on? For the 5 days he was at the camp, he came back with new crafts and it was super exciting for us. The staff seems nice and smiling and good people. It is so unfortunate and upsetting that instead of having an awesome summer camp together with his best friends, they got kicked out and now everybody is upset. Parents feel bad for what happened to their kids, and how this experience ended this unexpected way, AND we'll have to find a new childcare arrangement for our kids. Again, if you were hosting a summer camp for a bunch of 4 years old, I would have imagined that the staff is somewhat experienced to handle the situation better. Guide them, embrace them, and help them so that they will learn how to be in society rather than simply kick them out after 5 days because you don't know how to handle them. We will continue to do what we need to do as a parent - teach them a consequence, and what's acceptable and what's not in society. We wish our children would have been given an opportunity to experience what the camp has to offer - their first Summer Camp Ever. We have to say that our experience with the camp was extremely disappointing.

Not sure about the actual center itself... but I got my Christmas Tree from them this year on Los…read moreAlamitos Blvd. So I went to tree lots all over Long Beach, Cerritos, and Hawaiian Gardens but I wasn't feeling the vibe from any of their trees. Plus I was trying to get a gauge of the prices of the trees with type and quality. I ended up getting my tree from them because not only was the 5 ft grand fir ($39) I picked out a super PINEY smelling one but the staff selling the trees were really friendly and patient and answering all my tree questions. My tree is also very furry, not a bald spot in sight and very shiny with soft needles. Staff and volunteer youth offered to trim brushes and the bottom of the tree to my liking. They also offer to bind your tree in plastic netting for transport, very helpful for me as I live in an apartment complex with stairs. They then strapped my tree to the top of my car =) Although the price of my tree was about $4 more than the same size and type of tree variety I chose from the other sights....there was something special about my tree and the people selling me the tree. It called out to me. Plus it had a very distinct and strong PINE smell, other lots trees didn't have that, other lots also had dry trees. My tree is super lush and green...love it, had to have it!! So worth it! For about $4 they also sell mistletoe which benefits the local boy scouts troop. Tree stands were $12 extra as well. The lot itself is also nice because its in a big lot with a tent covering the trees and they had holiday music and complementary hot cocoa and cider that the children were handing out. 100% of the proceeds of the sale go to the Los Alamitos Youth Center, so that makes me feel like I supported the local youth and still got something for the holiday.

The camp has helped her continue to build her confidence and social skills, interact with new people, and develop lasting friendships. This summer, she moved up to the high school group and especially enjoyed the field trips, including visiting the aquarium and learning how to make pizza at California Pizza Kitchen. These outings give the kids a fun opportunity to practice and use their social skills in real-world settings. Brenna also plans special activities throughout the year, including bowling, a Winter Dance, and a holiday party. She ends the summer camp with a family picnic for the kids and their families, which is always a nice way to bring everyone together. Under Brenna's leadership, my granddaughter has become more comfortable advocating for herself, starting conversations with people she doesn't know, and expressing herself with confidence. Brenna truly cares about the children and teens she works with and creates an environment where they feel safe, supported, and accepted for who they are. I am very grateful for the positive impact Brenna and her program have had on my granddaughter and would highly recommend Advanced Pragmatics Speech Pathology to other families.

It's clear that the environment Brenna and her team have created is one where children feel safe, accepted, and encouraged to be themselves. Every time my son returned from camp, he is filled with joy and excitement, and he eagerly looks forward to going back. It has been incredibly rewarding to receive such positive feedback from him and to know that others recognize and appreciate his strengths and full potential. I am appreciative of the program for creating such a welcoming and nurturing space for children and adults with special needs. Their team sees the potential in every individual and empowers them to become the most confident and independent version of themselves. Programs like Friendship Camp that help individuals with their socialization skills in the community is truly rare, and the impact Brenna makes on families like ours is immeasurable. Advanced Pragmatics is a true gem!

The staff include some educators who work during the summer. All the staff are caring and are faithful leaders who seek out the best interest for your child. The staff get down to the level of the students and play with the children. LOCATION The location is very safe. It is on the property of the church and the academy where students go to school. It is a closed campus and strangers are not allowed without proper identification. There is a playground and a field for the children to play just about any sport. They even have a snack shack that offers food, drinks and snacks at reasonable prices. FIELD TRIPS The children go on field trips every week. You can check their weekly calendar on their website to see where they will be going. I like the fact that this is one of the few safest places you can leave your child and know that they are in good hands. I will definitely keep bringing my children here.

Every staff member is truly exceptional, and Dena, the director, is absolutely wonderful and amazing. It's unlike any other , and the love and care they put into each child's growth is truly unmatched. This school is more than just a place to learn--it's a place where emotional well-being, confidence, creativity, and problem-solving are nurtured every single day. The teachers are so dedicated and always go above and beyond. After we moved, my daughter talked about Kidworks and her teachers every day for six months during the transition. Even now, she still asks if she can go back. That says everything about how special this place is. At Kidworks, my daughter found her creativity and grew into the confident, amazing little person she is today. We wish we had more time there and that our second child could have experienced this magical place as well. If you're looking for a place where your child can truly thrive, look no further!
