TeeterPal

My kid had a lot of fun at this camp! A lot of outdoor activities, interaction with farm animals, great nature... She want to do it again. Thanks!

Very well! The kid loves the camp and activities… came back home exhausted but super happy!

Daughter loved it, I wish I had signed her up for more days.

Our child had a great week at the Kayaking camp. After the first day, he was looking forward to the next day and the rest of the week. The camp counsellors were professional and knowledgeable, and the kids learnt to inflate kayaks, steer them, and have safe fun kayaking in general. They also did some hiking around the place, fishing for a couple of days, and some arts/craft activities in the shade during lunch time. The group of kids appeared to be getting along well with one another, and exchanged contact information to stay in touch at the end of the week. The place they kayaked (Calero county Park) was also beautiful - with many coves and interesting trails. The camp also shared pictures of the group and trip regularly.

If I had to give one suggestion, the marketing of the camp could be better, since we happened to find out about this camp by chance. Strongly recommend the camp to those looking for a nice outdoorsy summer experience that boosts the confidence of both the child and parents.

Highly recommended! My kids attended several Ad Foris outdoor camps last summer, including Wilderness Survival, Nature exploration. They enjoyed their time and most of the counselors were friendly. We appreciated the outdoor setting of the camps. However, we were satisfied because the camps fully meet our expectations based on their website descriptions. We anticipated more excitement in the Survival camp, more history-related activities in the History camp, and more Olympic-style games in the Olympics camp. Since the kids had fun overall, we already enrolled in several sessions for this summer.

No transportation provided so needed to drop off and pickup at far away parks.

My kids attended several of the Ad Foris outdoor camps this summer (Wilderness Survival, History Hijinks, and Outdoor Olympics). They had a good time, and most of the counsellors were very nice. We also liked that the camps were outdoors. However, we were disappointed because they didn't really live up to their description on the website when we signed up for them; we expected more "excitement" in the Survival camp, more history-related activities in the History camp, and more olympic-style games in the Olympics one. Overall, the kids had fun, but the camps were not as special as we thought they were going to be based on the description.

I'm very unhappy about the so-called "Wilderness Survival Week" from Teeterpal. My 6 year old attended the Fremont camp.
It is false advertising, plain and simple. If you read the description:
- Fishing : didn't happen!
- Archery and Spear Making : didn't happen!
- Fire Starting : didn't happen!
More from the description: "A variety of hunting and trapping methods will also be demonstrated, after which students will be able to try fishing, spear-making, archery, and one type of snare-tying" -that DID NOT happen.
So if you read the whole description, all the fun stuff simply does not happen.
What the kids mostly did was hike, which is fine, but which can be done at home. I have no problem with hiking camps as long as they are advertised as such. This one is definitely false advertising. All you're paying for is expensive daycare.

The teacher and the lessons are great. Thank you!

Great field monitors. Kind, experienced, engaging and very invested in providing the kids a great experience. My son loved every day. Thank you!

This has been by far the best summer camp my kids have attended! Both my kids (ages 5 & 7) had a wonderful time at the camp, and we're enthusiastic every morning to get to the camp. All the activities from archery to fishing to hiking and free play were well thought out and executed. It was a pleasure to experience this camp, and as a parent want to give a huge shout out to Ms. Octopus, Ms. Yesenia and Ms. Audrey for all their efforts in making this fun for the kids. And taking care of them during the camp. Absolutely worth the experience!!!

It was ok for my son, though we had no idea in advance that he would not only be the oldest camper there (he's 12) but that all the other campers would be 6-7yrs old and many not speak any English. I think the camp should have contacted me and let me know of the age discrepancy and given me the option of cancelling. He was pretty bored but was a little better when the counselors, who were all very nice, had him act like sort of a Jr. Counselor.

Fabulous week long camp for my active 7 year old. She loved the teachers and the activities.

It was my son’s first outdoor & nature camp at TeeterPal. I loved that I could book daily since I didn’t know whether he was going to like it. He did! And went every single day. Went happy and came back tired but ready for more next day. The monitors were top notch and went above and beyond to encourage my son to engage in activities. Special thanks to both Alens and Sabrina who recorded a great video of my son enjoying camp. Thank you for the pictures. We’ll come back!

Kids had a lot of fun in the Filmmaking camp! The teachers were very patient and experienced. Expecting Teeterpal Summer Camp in 2020!

The cooking camp in San Mateo has a very deceiving name. Cordon Bleu implies high end cooking but the camp was home cooking, if that. My daughter, 13, was the oldest by far, and the activities after cooking (which was only until midday) were for 6 year olds. She was extremely unhappy the first day there but she stuck with it. I was very disappointed overall and so was she. When I called the camp the week before and the first day, I never received a call back and they didn't explain why they didn't cater for the older kids, as advertised.

Amazing customer service. I worked with the Teeterpal support team and they were able to professionally handle my issue. The communication was proactive and I did not need to chase them up for status updates. I would definitely do business with them again.

Two of my kids (ages 5 and 6) did the TeeterPal cooking camp and they had a great experience. They learned new skills, felt a sense of independence and ownership of the food they helped prepare, and really liked the counselors. As a parent, I appreciated the flexibility of the camp--we only needed something for three days, and I liked that you could sign up on an a la carte basis. Also, a cooking camp was a unique theme that was very different from their other camps this summer, so it kept them interested. Would recommend to other parents with kids of similar age or older.

My daughter is 9 and she just attended the Le Cordon Bleu cooking camp at Palo Verde last week. She was happy with the staff, but she gave the camp "5/10"... we didn't know it was all vegan, which she's not used to at all, and she said some of the recipes were just not very good. And they only had plastic knives. There aren't any facilities at the school, so all the cooking was on small appliances. She doesn't want to go back next summer, so we'll be on the lookout for a different cooking camp.

The positive was the instructors were very nice and welcoming. We imagined the kids would have access to a full kitchen for a more realistic experience. The activities after the cooking class we’re not as fun for my daughter.

Highly recommend it!! My 5 year old son enjoyed this camp. Teachers/staff are friendly and very caring. Kids did good quality art works, projects and lego based activities. They even shared pictures of kids everyday.

It was a great lego camp! My 4.5 yrs old enjoyed every day in the camp and we are definitely coming back next year! The teachers are super nice. They sent out emails everyday to keep the parents updated on the projects they did during the day, also tons of pictures of the kids! Thanks for a great camp, TeeterPal!

My son attended both the summer camp and winter break camp provided by TeeterPal at Cupertino and West San Jose, respectively. He loves both camps a lot. We did not know this camp and organization before. My son is a little shy and always on electronics or pad. So we only signed up one week in the summer and we are a little bit hesitating. Before the camp started, TeeterPal sent an email to me reminding the camp policy that no electronics are allowed in the camp. We showed that email to my son and he had to take it. During the camp, my son was surprisingly very happy even without electronics. Everyday after he came back home, he talked to us a lot about what happened in the day. The Lego projects were so much fun and the instructor was very patient. He spent a lot of time working with other campers. There were always lots of encouragement and positive feedback from the camp director and instructor. We do see the improvement of my son specially on the social emotional side.

After the one week camp last summer, my son told me he likes the camp so much so we signed up the winter break camp for him. Same experience and happy boy. So we would love to sign up my son for the whole summer at this camp and definitely we will let his friends know about this. We are sure they would be very happy to spend the summer with his friends.

It's the second time we attended the camp. Good experience. My son loves it. All the teachers are nice and the projects did in the camp are interesting.

Their coding program is unique, my daughter loved it. They are not only teaching kids fundamental knowledge but also encouraging kids to solve problems. The instructor is patient and knowledgable. My daughter loved doing every assignment after school, she wants to figure out the problems. Thank you for offering this program.

Definitely would recommend it to other parents and friends! My daughter Alice attended the Lego camp last week. I was a little bit nervous as she is a slow warming girl and was hesitant to go to the camp on the first day. After I brought her to the camp director Vivian, Vivian held her hand right away, bent her knees and talked to her with eyes contact. That was really touching to me. She also brought her to other kids and encourage her to get engaged with other kids. Before noon time, I went back to check how she was doing. Surprisingly, she got involved with the group activity very well and can play with other kids on the Lego building. The Lego program instructor lady was also very patient, taught the kids step by step and circled around to help kids to resolve any issue. I can see both teachers paid lots of attention to each kid and would give them encouragement whenever they made a little progress. On the second day my daughter told me she enjoyed the camp a lot and couldn't wait to go early in the morning! After the whole week, she succesfully completed a few Lego projects and made a few good friends. That's way beyond our expectation! I really appreciate the teachers' love, patience and warm heart!

The course design difficulty level was moderate and suitable for my kid. The projects designed involves lego building, motorized machine design, lego robots and some visualized coding, including building your own nameplate, motorized bug in a maze, roller coaster carrier with balls, cashier machine with auto counting feature.. Those were very cool and we as parents were also very interested and would like to give a try.

During October I took my sun to the LEGO camp and he really enjoyed it. The teachers were very nice and he made lots of new friends. After that camp he asked me to buy him the set and now he plays it everyday. It’s a good activity for him so he wouldn’t be playing on th iPad all the time.

Terrible experience! Poor communication and major safety concerns. The people running the show seem to have no experience with children and no desire to actually teach kids what they are "selling" in the camp description. Full day "performance/theater" camp consisted of 1/8 actual performance-based teaching (thanks to Mariah, their ONLY saving grace). The rest of the day seemed to consist of kids doing their own thing, including roaming freely around the theater. We ended up pulling our child out of the program on day 3 of a two week session after we found out that one of the instructors drove some of the children back from their park outing. On top of our other concerns, we did not feel comfortable sending our child back there. We definitely didn't feel we were getting what we paid and signed up for in this camp and would NOT recommend this camp for other parents.

We'll be back again next year! All staff are so nice, and my kid told me he miss them so much. They build lego wedo project, cooked sushi, played basketball and dance. Good camp!

My daughter joined the weekend filming class, she liked it very much! Almost every day, she asked me how many days she had to wait to go to the class. She also used iPad for shooting and editing, she really enjoyed it!

Our family is a big fan of TeeterPal. We bought tickets for family shows; attended activities they organized for parents-kids. They also have great summer camp and Lego education program. My children ( 7ys boy and 5ys girl）love it!

I have had our son came to here for filmmaking spring camp. The teachers are very patient and detailed. Our sons become enthusiastic about video taking. I really recommend TeeterPal to anyone who wants to discover their child's interests.

My girl joined camp last year, we really like it .The teacher is very kind, has a strong sense of responsibility, the curriculum design is very good, the children are very interested.

I’m a fan of TeeterPal! I bought tickets twice from the official website, which are Bubble Show and DisneyLand. The staff are very passionate and patient. At the Bubble Show, the audiences got a lot of fun no matter how old are you. I heard that TeeterPal is organizing summer camp, I will register definitely!

Highly recommend! My daughter was very shy. So when I was looking for Spring break camp, the targeted camps are those that can help to build kid's confidence with instructors have patience and attention to each kid. I sent my daughter to the film making & acting camp. Surprisingly, after the one week camp, my daughter told me she loved this camp so much. She loved her team and worked with her peers together to make a story. They rotated to perform different roles for actor/actress, director, clap board, filming and editing. They each made a wonderful trailer which is way beyond our expectation. And at the last day of the camp, my daughter told me what she learned is not to be shy and be brave when you are in front of people. This is just a very small step but I do see the instructors treated the kids like their own children and very responsible.

My son joined TeeterPal's camp last year, he had tons of fun! He described the camp as "different from other camps because we do different things which makes it more fun." I recommend TeeterPal's summer camp because kids can enjoy diverse activities and learn a lot!

My kids joined the camp last year, we really enjoyed it. The teacher is very kind, has a strong sense of responsibility, the curriculum design is very good, the children are very interested.

Highly recommended! Our 9yr and 10yr olds signed up for Lego Robotics and Drama at Foster City. The kids had a blast! Great teachers that are knowledgeable and passionate.
