2 years agoMy kids loved their Snapology camp experience! They came home everyday with a hands on project that they had created. The teachers stayed in touch with me throughout the day with pictures of the fun Lego creations my kids had constructed. I've seen my son's ability to create 3D Lego builds improve since he started attending Snapology. Thanks Snapology!

2 years agoMy son went to a camp they had here and had an amazing experience. We were greeted by 2 friendly people when we walked in the door. The place is very clean. I also like that thru the day you receive pictures to see your child's creations. As soon as we got in the car he asked when he could return. If you are looking for a fun and creative place to put your child I highly recommend. I wish I would have found this place much sooner.

2 years agoBoth my boys (8 and 6) really enjoyed themselves. At first, I thought maybe it wouldn't be challenging enough because both my boys are pretty skilled builders. However, they were kept engaged the entire time. The program progresses through the week and the level of skill increases. They definitely want to go back. From an organizational standpoint, the camp felt very safe and well organized. We were overall very pleased.

3 years agoGreat team hosting my pandemic kid first big birthday party. It was so nice to just pay (a really reasonable price!!) and have the whole party ready for us. Marcella was very responsive to emails and the birthday party team was enthusiastic and singing and dancing along to the music right along with the kids. Great build ideas and the kids were very happy! They kept us on time and provided easy segues. 10/10 would have a party here again!
