I attended Magic Day Camp for two summers - first when I was 7 in 2000, and again at age 9 in 2003. Looking at their website today, I see they've added some new activities like air trampolines and visits to White Post Farm. Back in my day, it was much more limited: swimming took up about 80% of the time, with occasional trips to a run-down movie theater (where half the seats didn't work) and Adventureland amusement park. The one genuinely awesome activity was visiting this old-school arcade - that place was dope, and along with one kind bus monitor named Melissa, it's the only reason this review gets 2 stars. The camp's unprofessionalism and poor care really stand out in my memory. When I was 9, I had a bad fall that left scrapes all along the side of my face and knocked out one of my teeth - thankfully it was just a baby tooth and not a permanent one. Their idea of first aid? A band-aid and ice water in a plastic glove because they didn't even have proper ice packs. They didn't properly inform my mother about the extent of my injuries, so when I got home, she was shocked. She wrote a lengthy letter expressing her concerns about their negligence. Their response? The next day at camp, they pulled me aside to tell me I had "embarrassed them." I was just a kid who got hurt under their watch - what was there to be embarrassed about? The camp's staffing practices were concerning, to say the least. Instead of hiring qualified teachers or experienced childcare professionals, they filled positions with high school students as junior counselors and a few 18-22 year olds as the lead councelors. I remember overhearing them getting their monthly paychecks, well not overhear we were in an open field just sitting around cause that tends to happen there and then someone came with a whole bunch of envelopes and handed them out to them. I remember one girl received just $430 for four weeks of work, and she was visibly upset. At the time, as a kid, I thought that was a lot of money. Now I realize how absurd it was - less than $500 to watch other people's children for a month? No wonder the care was subpar. They were paying teenagers peanuts to handle significant responsibilities. Most of the bus monitors were incredibly mean to the kids, with one shining exception - Melissa. I still remember her decades later because she was the only one who showed genuine kindness. One counselor convinced a little girl to let her "borrow" her cell phone, then made international calls to the Dominican Republic (imagine that phone bill in the early 2000s!). Another counselor was eventually fired for being consistently cruel to the kids - she was clearly just there for the paycheck. While I see they've added more activities since my time there, my experiences were memorable for all the wrong reasons. Based on my time at Magic Day Camp, I wouldn't send my own children there. The administration seemed more focused on collecting fees than providing quality care and activities for the kids. That old arcade was amazing and Melissa was a saint, but two bright spots don't make up for everything else. read more

The Camp did the same activities every week. They did not go on different trips as other camps do. My son goes somewhere else and enjoys it better. However, the biggest problem was being pressured to pay next year's deposit before Camp even finished for the current year in order to receive the promised discount which helps families who are struggling. Parents were not given enough time as in other past years when you could pay the Deposit by the end of December and still get the discount. Every year they wanted the deposit earlier and earlier in the year. Not fair at all!! I heard many past campers are leaving this camp to go elsewhere. Something must be wrong!! read more

Magic Day Camp is a wonderful camp to send your children. There is always a fun filled itinerary for the kids every week. The counselors are so hard working and professional- you can tell they love their job. My niece has attended this camp for the last two years and every day she says she can't wait to go back. The owners are so considerate and accommodating- even throughout Covid-19, I know I never have to worry about my niece when she is there. I highly recommend this camp to everyone!! read more

This is my son's 3rd year with Magic Day Camp. This is the first camp, after trying a few others, that he likes and begged to go back year after year. He has made friends here easily. He has not had any incidents of bullying or issues with other kids. The counselors are very attentive to all the children and he really gets along well with all of them. He hasn't had a bad day yet. I attribute that to positive, supportive and enriching environment provided for all the children of all ages. There's a major trip to a venue, once a week, a weekly beach trip, a movie theater trip, a bowling day and pool time everyday with avid supervision. He's become such a strong swimmer that I'm going to look into having him join a team. The cost is worth every penny. From the bussing to and from home, lunch, all the trips and no added expenses later. I have not seen anything like it in any if the other camps. The people who run MDC are all great, experienced people that know how to run children's programs as they are involved in after school programs in the area. They really love what they do and treat every kid with great care and respect. I really couldn't ask for anything more. I strongly recommend this camp to family and friends alike. read more

I was very happy with Magic until the day we moved out of the area. They give you a friendly feeling until you no longer want to attend the camp. I was given a good price for my two children and sent in an early deposit. Unfortunately we had to relocate out of the are by over 100 miles when I requested my refund /I was told very nicely he would mail it. This is the owner LIAR its now 2 years and still he claims he will mail it out. I have to take them to court to get my $1000.00 refund back. I am a single grandmother raising my 2 children and this man has the nerve to lie about sending back what is not his. Be very careful about sending your kids here they cannot be trusted. read more

This is a very unprofessional facility. It is ran by a construction guy. According to Magic Day Camp web site it has a staff of " professional educators" with bachelor and master degrees in Education. In reality it is a bunch of high school kids who are working as a "camp counselors." High school kids with no experience on how to deal with children. They all report to Phil who runs the camp instead of dealing one on one with a child who may need coaching when they are misbehaving. Our child was very excited to go to this camp however after one week we start getting complains, if we don't talk to our child they will remove him from the camp. We were not told but received a text from Phil that our child was no longer welcomed to Magic Day Camp. We felt humiliated and horrible for our son. The camp is not equipped to handle children. The counselors cannot guide and coach children who needs attention when needed. This camp can only handle "Perfect" children who follow orders. read more

My two children have really enjoyed going to Magic Day Camp for the last 6 years. They love the variety of activities such as playing laser tag, jumping at the trampoline park, going to Adventure land, bowling, the movies and of course swimming in the morning. They have made strong friendships with the other campers and keep in touch with them throughout year. Their favorite counselor is Joe who is a retired teacher and has a heart of gold. He works with the older campers and keeps them engaged throughout the day. read more

I sent my 4 year old daughter there last summer. I did not feel my daughter was being supervised property. I voiced my concerns several times. The staff would allow a 4 year old to handle their own money. I specifically asked she not be allowed to play video games on the field trips , yet if I sent her with any amount of money to buy ice cream or what have you, she would get home, I'd ask her what she spent her money on and it was video games at the bowling alley, the skating rink...When I called again about not wanting her to play video games, I was told they can't stop the kids from playing them. I said yes you can- tell them no. One day she came home with no underwear on after swimming. She went the whole afternoon with everyone being able to see up her shorts. When I inquired about who is with them when the kids change I was told the councilors stand out side the stall they aren't allowed to go in with them. She is four years old, she needs supervision. I voiced my concern she wasn't being supervised properly and the very next day- I get a call from one of the directors that she was hit in the head with a swing, " She was fine, she didn't even cry." I asked if I needed to come pick her up, I was told no. At 6pm I get home from work, Pick her up from the babysitter, she has an egg size bump in between her eyes and the start of 2 black eyes. She had 2 black eyes for almost 2 weeks. No one was ever able to explain how this happen. I was given conflicting stories. When I spoke to another director I was told she did cry and that director calmed her down talking about wonder women. The camp did not get her medical attention besides putting ice on it because the EMT on staff was out sick that day which no one told me when they called me about the incident. I have enrolled her in a different camp this summer and every issue I had with Magic Day camp during the orientation was talked about, regarding money, changing the kids, the ratio of counselors to kids for her age group and most importantly, they don't take them to parks with swings. Please think twice about before signing you child up for this camp. It took them 9 months to reimburse me for my daughters $2,000 in medical bills and they didn't reimburse me for even the week she was injured. Really research camps before enrolling young kids. read more

We heard of the program just when the pandemic started as our daughter was starting school, however we had some difficulties due to the pandemic and Adam did everything to work with out. We appreciated his attentiveness so much we decided to forgo other summer camps when we found out that this program offered one. The camp was beyond amazing, our daughter loved it and I felt that the staff loved her. It felt like family, not easy to find a program that you feel takes good care of your child. That was last year. This school year, our daughter's school offered a few after school programs, however none of them are even close to this program. Adam and ThinkinCAP do so much for kids of the school, a lot of times, people don't know, because he does it for the kids, when I ask him "Why didn't you put the name of the program on the flyer?" He always says "It is for the kids, this is the reason I am doing all of this, I have to do it with all of my heart, or why do it at all." Adam works with the parents, in so many different ways, he communicates effectively in a timely manner. He is direct, honest, nurturing and always a great person to just learn from. If I were to vote for a DOE Chancellor, I would vote for Adam, a lot of people say they are doing it for the children, he is one of the few that means it, which he has shown through his actions! One conversation and you will see how much he and the program really cares and supports children! I truly wish that that the city would support this program to where more children can benefit from him. I forgot to mention, he is not just an administrator who hides behind a desk or group of people, he is always interacting with children and nurturing their growth!

I have kids in different generations and have been sending my kids to camps since the 90s. I know what to look for in a camp and Magic Day Camp is a great option! My sons, ages 6 and 9, both went here last summer, and they had a great time! They loved the counselors and had something new to do every day. They also made lots of friends. I love that the camp students and staff are very diverse. One of my sons has food allergies (anaphylactic) and they were very accommodating. I felt that he was safe there. I see that the camp has made lots of changes for the upcoming season. For example, they changed the trip from Queens Farm to White Post Farm. My kids didn't like Queens Farm so this is a welcome change. Overall, this camp is receptive to feedback. They are affordable and provide great value for the money. Most of all, I felt my kids were safe and they had a great summer. Definitely recommend this little gem. (Reposting this since yelp took my initial review down for some strange reason read more

Nevertheless, on the first day at this camp as a staff member, I was greeted with bright, smiling faces; warm greetings; and much more! Phil, the owner, and Joe, a Director, are EXCEEDINGLY cordial! I received numerous hand shakes from both of them-- a sign that I am welcome at this marvelous place! As the weeks passed by, we went on many thrilling trips such as to an air trampoline play place in L.I. called "Flight Fit N Fun", to the beach, to a community pool, etc. Overall, in my humble opinion, this camp is a great place for kids to be.

I haven't had to use the extended hours but if I ever did it's nice to know the option is there. I haven't had a single bad experience with them and my son is always excited to go. Love this place. read more

My children have been going to Magic Day Camp for 7 years and they love it so much!! The staff is great and customer service is amazing. This camp really gives off a sense of "family". The trips are fun for kids of all ages. My daughter is 5 and my son is 13. Both of them love the trips, events and activities. Magic Day Camp is safe and provides a summer experience your children wont forget. My kids will be returning !!! My kids miss Magic Day Camp during the school year read more

My 2 happy campers attended Magic Day Camp the past 2 summers, and absolutely loved it. Not only does Magic Day Camp offer a vast array of activites, there are so many fun extras like the kids going on trips 3 times a week. The staff are truly amazing. They go the extra mile to connect with the kids, and stay in communication with the parents, which is important to me. Both myself and my little ones are eager and excited for the summer to come. read more

Great camp. Never had any issues. No complaints. My kids come home real happy after a day at camp. They offer extended hours which works out great for me because I finish work at 5pm and their extended hours are up to 6pm. Reasonably priced. Would definitely recommend checking the place out. read more

There is a new management team that has completely transformed this place. I love that there are so many activities for the kids, which includes numerous trips. The kids even have access to a beautiful swimming pool. read more
