FAQs
Well, we’d really prefer not to, but it’s your call. We’ve got tons of art projects and activities going on, and no nap time. We’re concerned they might have trouble focusing during art, which is at least 60 minutes, or get really tired from walking almost a mile a day in the summer. If you think your child is mature enough, there are two exceptions where we could have a 6-year-old join our camp: if they’re with an older friend, we’d suggest a half-day camp, or if they’re with a responsible older sibling, then a full-day camp might be okay.
Yes, we always have 2 to 4 choices for campers, with different levels prepared in advance. We make sure it covers all ages in the camp, boys and girls favorite. We also make sure the younger campers take break every 1 hour, and older campers every 1.5 hr, different activities provide by ages as well.
For summer camp, yes 5 days are the package, 3 or 4-day package might be added after the camp starts on Monday or Tuesday, if we have spots left
You will not have to worry about familiarity with our studio program since most of the kids who sign up for the art camps are new, and there is social/play time dedicated for everyone to get to know each other. For art camps, we do not offer a free trial, but you are more than welcome to book a drop-in class, which would be $40 or up. or schedule a tour with us.
If your child has an injury, has a flu or is ill, please allow them to stay at home till they have recovered completely.
