“We loved that the camp started with the children being exposed to the projects from previous years and that helped spur them to think about what they wanted to do. It was great that the camp starts with the kids having a germ of an idea; they build on that and end with a finished project. I think our son found that highly rewarding. The fact that he not only built a robot, but then filmed it is amazing! Our son felt in his element there and loved every minute. The mentoring by counselors is great. It is a nice set-up for kids who are inclined to spend their time engaged in this kind of thing! Keep up the good work.”

Just wanted to thank you, and Bonnie, for the exciting workshop you provided our 4th graders last Friday. I was very proud of them, and delighted with the challenges the activities provided, even though I could not keep up with some of them! Thanks so much.

“Love that they TOTALLY enjoyed it. I wish it could be combined with some non-geeky-get-outside-activities more, but it is exactly what THEY love. iCamp did an amazing job signing us up (we signed up the Sunday night before and their names were on the list the next morning). The counselors seem very involved, engaged and to enjoy working on the projects with the kids, which fuels their interest further. I’d love for iCamp to have a more “senior” session – and to work on things like iPhone apps. My kids would be back for that!

Once again, my son had a very positive experience at icamp. I am impressed with how seriously the instructors take the kids and how they enable them to implement their creativity into their projects. The staff is wonderful, the variety and quality of supplies is terrific. My son is engaged and inspired from the moment he enters the door, and will be counting the weeks until Icamp 2012!

Hi folks, I just have to write to praise the staff running the video game-making camp. My son attended this week, and the entire staff was great. He had some rough spots, especially because his grandma passed away earlier this week, but the entire staff remained friendly, supportive, and engaged, and he was really happy to go – never something we take for granted!… Celebrate yourselves! You deserve it!

“My son came home each day and told me all about what he did. I loved that he made the decisions about what to do and that there were so many choices. I like the presentation day where each child could be the star for a few minutes.”

“My son really liked making the glasses with the wipers. He came home talking about first class levers and related it to other objects at home. Very informative, fun and learning while having fun.”

“My son LOVED iCamp. He was almost speechless the first day he came home — he finally just breathed, “It was AWESOME.” He was very excited by the choice of projects and really proud of the one he completed. He also had a blast at the park during lunchtime, playing Capture the Flag and the other games. I think it’s great that they got to run around outside to break up the day.”

This is the third year that my child has attended ICamp and he has learned something new each year.

“Enjoyed how kids were given independence and creative freedom to make whatever they wanted. Instructors encouraged without limiting students’ ideas.”

“I wanted to let you know how much my son and all of his friends enjoyed his Build-A-Bug party yesterday. By the end of the first hour, we had 17 functioning inch worms. His instructors did a great job keeping the kids engaged, focused, and organized. It was a huge success. Thanks again for working so hard to make this party happen.”
\u2014Bonnie from Newton on Build-A-Bug party
“What I like about icamp was the fact that there are so many different things you can do, from game-making to claymation, either by yourself or with friends. I would go to i-Camp full time if I could!”

My daughter thought this program is one of the best she has ever been in.
