We just finished another fun week and look forward to being back next summer!

Quantum Camp is an amazing program. Our children tried both the day program and the summer camp and…read morevery much enjoyed both. They didn't want to return to regular school. This is a bright spot for engaged learners in an area where the public system offers little opportunity for children to stretch in math and science. Lessons are engaging, hands-on, challenging and inspiring. The other students are bright, curious and creative. If we had stayed in the area, we likely would have homeschooled and used QuantumCamp as a math and science resource. I highly recommend it to families searching for a way to help their children reach higher levels of understanding, while generating enthusiasm, for math and science.

My son does 8-12 weeks of summer camps every summer as he is a homeschooler. He says this is the…read morebest academic camp he has ever attended. He attended this camp at UCLA. He liked that there were many people who lived nearby attending. (At many academic camps it is almost all international students.) He thought the quality of instruction was high, the best he has encountered at an academic camp especially in Mock Trial. He liked that most of the students attending actually wanted to be at the camp. He thought the camp director was amazing. He appreciated that there was more supervision of kids on their devices than there has been at other camps, but he still thinks there could be more. (It's no fun to be in a class with kids who are secretly gaming rather than engaging in class. It's also no fun to be at a camp when you want to make new friends but everyone spends every minute of their break on their phone.) As a parent, I was impressed with the level of communication provided by the camp. They responded immediately to every issue I had. It was not hard to get ahold of camp directors. As someone who attended a private university, I was shocked at the UCLA facilities. Classrooms were ... basically hallways in dorms. They were hot and not air conditioned. My son did not have a problem with this, but I was pretty surprised. This is a fairly expensive program as far as summer camps go. They could not rent actual classrooms? No idea if this is a fault of the program or of UCLA. My son also did SIG at UCLA and facilities were the same, so I assume this is a UCLA thing. Like I said, my son did not complain about this.

My daughter just completed the Cardiology Camp at Stanford, and I cannot speak highly enough of the…read moreexperience. The instructors and camp leaders were exceptional. They created a welcoming, supportive environment where the kids felt comfortable, connected, and truly bonded with one another. Thanks to this camp, my daughter has gained so much confidence. She made amazing friends and came home at the end of the week excited to share what she learned. A special thank you to Emily, who is incredibly kind and quick to respond to any questions. Dr. D was an inspiring teacher--knowledgeable, patient, and truly engaging with the students. And Julian made a lasting impression by remembering the kids' names from the very beginning and being consistently warm and friendly. Thank you so much to the entire team at Education Unlimited for such a meaningful and memorable experience!

This summer my son already attended a few great high energy adventure and play camps, and I had…read morealways wanted to try a Reggio Emilia (RE) approach with my son. He normally attends a Montessori preschool, and for many committed reasons I won't bore you, I always felt that RE may better fit his learning style. Camp Doodle is RE-inspired with projects based on a weekly theme. My son participated in "Light and Shadow" and grasped complex concepts. He is constantly paying attention to where a shadow lands due to light source(s) and stomping on my shadow as a form of chase and tag. The last day the camp counselors put together a gallery of all the campers' projects. Given identical materials and theme, each child's creation reflected a wide range of creative and conceptual development. I could see my child's personality projected in how he constructed his project pieces like a kaleidoscope. This was the only summer camp that gave me a glimpse of how my son's mind works. I give props to his counselor for being enthusiastic and welcoming. She was so warm and inviting each day. Her energy was unwavering throughout the day. The brief drop-off and pick-up updates were informative and insightful. She had previously taught preschool and now teaches elementary school, and thus she is experienced with working with young children and effectively communicating with parents. I was impressed by the caliber of the head counselor. I appreciated that the summer camp has 5 different weekly themes, and so I can pick and choose which weeks to send my son. Camp Doodle is also one of the more flexible camp registrations that takes in consideration the ever-changing family schedules. This is also one of the camps that has a later regular pick-up at 4PM, and my son still did not want to leave. As a side note, this is the only camp where my son had zero bathroom accidents. This only happens when he has zero anxiety. There is something to be said about Camp Doodle's calm environment that helped my son modulate his energy & focus on projects & activities, and he also could initiate and pivot to address his primal needs without being distracted or too absorbed into his environment.
