Jake had great fun working with Kobi. He came home excited with a great sense of achievement at the end of camp.
Definitively will go back!

Our 6 year old son really enjoyed this camp. He's so proud that he was able to build a battleship and a mouse from scrap wood. Our son learned to use a handsaw, file, sandpaper, and a powerdrill. He's continued to build at home.

Hi, girls of that age usually build a mouse, a dog, an elephant, a key holder, cloth hanger, shelf, bench, a sail boat etc. Since I don't know your daughter I can't tell if she is too young, I can only say I have had many many six years old kids coming. -
Hi! My son Gregory attended this camp a couple of years ago and absolutely loved it! This year, he and his sister Kyra (6yo) really really wanted to attend the camp the week of August 16th. We unfortunately couldn't sign up earlier due to some travel uncertainty. If any spaces open up, please let us know! Thank you, Ksenia. (Builders Summer Camp)
