"My son asked EVERY day if it was Wednesday. He’s never been that excited about a program before. I loved the mix of free play and leader led activities. Can you please host more events? I would rearrange my entire schedule just to make it :)" Winter 2020

"We love the variety of activities and the learning opportunities."
