Happy Customers

Here's what parents have to say about our camps!

From a parents perspective, the organization! The staff was friendly and well organized. I felt that my children were in good hands. From my childrens' perspective, my children did not want to leave and anxiously waited to return the following day!

My kids LOVE inventors camp (9 and 6 year olds). They are learning a lot and having a ton of fun while doing it. They get to bring their inventions home....I plan to sign my kids up for more camps next summer by Mad Science.

My daughter has come home everyday raving about camp. She can’t stop talking about all the fun stuff she has learned and the projects they do everyday. It’s so great to have a camp option that is geared towards kids that love science!
