Camp US! — Science

I enrolled my 9-year-old son in Camp US! — Science in Vancouver, and he had a solid experience. The engaged staff kept the kids actively participating in various hands-on experiments, from building a small volcano to creating a simple circuit. He especially loved working on the creative projects, which sparked his interest in science. However, I found the pickup process a bit chaotic. We ended up waiting in a long line, which was frustrating. The camp is priced on the higher side, but considering the small group size and personal attention, I felt it was worth it. Overall, my son made new friends and came home excited to share what he learned, so I would recommend it with the caveat that the pickup could be better organized.

I enrolled my 9-year-old in Camp US! — Science in Vancouver this summer. Overall, it was a solid experience. The hands-on projects, like building model rockets and experimenting with simple chemical reactions, really engaged my child. The instructor, Mark, was particularly great at explaining concepts in a fun way that kept the kids interested. They also had manageable group sizes, which allowed for more interaction and personalized attention. My child even made a new friend! One small annoyance was the long lines during drop-off, which made mornings a bit chaotic. However, once we got past that, everything ran smoothly. I think it’s a good choice for active kids interested in science, but just be prepared for a bit of waiting at the start of the day.
