PLAYDAY Park Slope — Photography

My 12-year-old son participated in the PLAYDAY Park Slope photography program in Brooklyn, and overall, we found it to be a solid experience. The instructor, Mia, was very engaging and encouraged the kids to explore their creativity while learning the basics of photography. They went on a small field trip to a nearby park where the kids could capture nature shots, which my son really enjoyed. The small group size made it easy for him to get individual attention, and he even made a few new friends. One downside was the communication regarding the schedule. We received the pickup details a bit late, which caused some confusion on our end. However, the program itself was well-structured, and my son came home excited about the photos he took and the techniques he learned. If you're looking for a creative outlet for your child, I'd recommend it with that caveat about communication.

My 12-year-old son attended the PLAYDAY Park Slope photography program in Brooklyn, and overall, we had a solid experience. The instructor, Alex, was very engaging and knowledgeable, which really helped my son feel at ease. He particularly loved the creative project where they went out into Prospect Park to capture nature shots. However, I did find that the additional costs for the field trips and printing photos added up quickly, which was a bit of a surprise. The group size was small, allowing for more individual feedback, which my son appreciated. He even made a new friend who shares his interest in photography. While it wasn't without its minor frustrations, I would recommend it for kids who are creative and eager to learn new skills in a supportive environment.
