On the party front, they're super easy to work with and bring so much fun stuff (giant obstacle courses that kept all the kids entertained for hours). My son really loved the camp, he had so much fun playing at the beach and thought all the coaches were great. The staff I think is what sets this business apart, they do a great job of recruiting energetic staff that seem to genuinely really like kids.

My daughter really enjoyed this camp. It was organized and the counselors were always friendly and…read moreenergetic. This location is at the beautiful Turning Point School in Culver City, adjacent to Surfas, and the metroline. The parking lot is small but the staff were great at directing traffic and getting everyone in and out. They ask you to walk your child for check-in on the first day, and then your child may be dropped off at valet on the subsequent days. Pick-up is always inside and you must show ID (nice safety measure). My daughter made a vacuum and was so excited to share her experiences each afternoon at pick up. She also had an unfinished (?) nightlight in her bag on her last day. We purchased the extended care for the week (because we work full-time regular office hours and planned to have our daughter there from 8-6). The last day (Friday) had a "closing ceremony" at 2:30 PM. I was disappointed because we weren't aware of this at enrollment. It was very difficult to attend and the entire camp literally closed down afterwards. Luckily I got the day off, but otherwise, my daughter would have been "stuck" there until 6 and it really did feel like they were "done". Most of the kids already had a mindset that they were done and packed, and the staff seemed to be ready to say goodbye as well. Meals and snacks are not included - bummer! Choicelunch, a hot food delivery service is available. One other disappointment for me - I decided to change locations (from Culver City to Brentwood) because of the commute and was charged a fee. Culver City was already waitlisted, so in my opinion, I just freed up another spot for them and shouldn't have accrued a charge. The customer service representative told me that it "takes a lot of work" to exchange locations but I just don't understand it. Galileo is new to So Cal and I would expect them to make some exceptions, especially if I'm helping them out (by freeing up a space). It's difficult to say if we'll return to Galileo next year. My daughter enjoyed it but she has enjoyed all the other camps she's attended. She's got an outgoing and fun personality, and she doesn't have difficulty meeting friends and enjoys challenges. There are other camps in LA that are also fun, offer meals and/or snacks and are less expensive.

There are several highly-regarded youth basketball programs in the Los Angeles area offering a…read morerange of options for young players, from recreational leagues to competitive clubs. I took notice of Royal Basketball School who is frequently mentioned in positive reviews, with parents highlighting the quality of coaching, engaging drills, and positive learning environment. Royal Basketball School offers several locations and also offers weekly training and games. Praised for its fun and encouraging environment while teaching fundamentals and introducing players to competitive play. Coaches are highly regarded, and parents appreciate the focus on enjoyment, not just winning. Yes, many positive reviews highlighting the enjoyable experience for players, with emphasis on the friendly coaches and staff, as well as the ease of registration. I too have been impressed with the Owner/Executive Director, Yulia, Coach Anthony, as well as others Coaches Bryce, Coach Max, Coach Rob, Coach Mike, and others. They've all shown the utmost professionalism and positive mentorship to all. Royal Basketball School takes it a step further by hosting guest performances & Camps with internet sensation The Professor (Grayson Boucher) , Global Dunker 7'5" "everybody_hatechriss" Christon Staples, Slam Dunker Anthony Henderson (Anthony also Coaches for Royal Basketball School). Ty Jackson Worlds Shortest Dunker at 5'4" with a 51.5" vertical, and other professional basketball players. I highly recommend Royal Basketball School. Tips for choosing the best program: Consider your child's age and skill level: Some programs cater specifically to beginners or advanced players. Think about the program's philosophy: Do you prefer a focus on fun and participation, or competitive play? Research the coaches: Look for experienced and positive role models. Ask about the schedule and time commitment: Understand the practice and game frequency, and whether the program involves travel. Talk to other parents: Word-of-mouth is a great way to learn about the reality of a program. Factor in the cost: Understand what the fees cover and if financial aid is available. Remember, the "best" program is ultimately the one that best suits your child's needs and goals. By researching and asking the right questions, you can find a program that provides a positive and enriching basketball experience for your child. Good luck and Happy Ballin'!

And the campers make friends for life, which is really what camp is all about.

Actually, the camp also has programming throughout the year so they spend time with their camp friends year-round, but summer is when the magic really happens. They started with short sessions and then increased to full summer, and now they both work on staff. The camp is run like a kibbutz, the campers and young staff are responsible for everything from programming to life guarding to cooking to cleaning the bathrooms. It's an incredible leadership development model - the kids aren't just learning about leadership, they're doing it. Also fantastic social justice education, designed and led by the young people. They are masters at experiential education - the campers are having so much fun I'm not sure they always realize they're learning. And the site is gorgeous, on top of a mountain in Big Bear, completely off the grid. The kids are all in nature. There's a lake for kayaking too. Amazing camp.

They will tolerate the other camps that we choose to fill the calendar, but they LOVE Planet Bravo. They love the Beverly Hills staff, so when the early bird registration opens in December, I do my best to register as soon as it does. The courses can fill up quickly, so it is best to get in fast. They have always had a generous cancellation policy, so if our plans have to change, they can without penalty. We will build our summer plans around our PB schedule -that is how much my kids love this camp. While it is a tech-focused camp, the courses are updated every year, and it does make tech more accessible. My kids are getting great exposure to what I believe could be their future. My older child has aged out, but he will get to return for a couple of weeks as an honorary CIT. We look forward to when he can become a true Planet Bravo CIT.

The amazing counselors are always encouraging the campers to try new things and just have fun, and the best part is that the counselors lead by example--whether they're putting on fun shows at assembly for the kids or playing games with them. My kids go to Willows, but we have friends at the other two campuses, and everyone says the same thing: what makes Iverbe the most special is the sense of community.

My kids have had an amazing time, and the counselors and directors are what make it so special. They are incredibly caring, nurturing, and create an environment where every child feels welcomed, supported, and excited to come back each day. The variety of activities is fantastic--sports, arts and crafts, water play, cooking, games, and so much more--there's genuinely something for every child and every interest. This summer, one of my sons attended the Maker Camp, and it was a huge hit. He learned robotics, coding, woodworking, and other STEAM-based skills in a way that was hands-on and fun. It kept his curiosity and learning going over the summer without ever feeling like school. Iverbe has found the perfect balance between fun, friendship, and learning. My kids came home happy every day, made wonderful memories, and are already asking when they can go back next summer. We couldn't recommend it more!
