We absolutely love Outdoor Kids! Our child did their summer camp and then completed a full year of a weekly group and we're signed up for next year.

This is an outstanding program. My kiddo attended for a full year, and the staff was incredibly high quality. The opportunity is so unique too - outdoor education mixed with physical skill building, plus social skills and emotional development. The parent communication piece was also really strong, so I always felt like I understood what was happening, how my child was doing, and that I was gaining useful resources for my own parenting approach. Highly recommend!
This has been a wonderful experience for our child! The leaders are very knowledgeable, patient, and skilled. Our child has anxiety around transitions and unknown, new things. Laura and Chloe have really gone the extra mile to help him plan ahead and establish a rapport that helps us address it. It’s always only a couple minutes before he realizes how much fun he is having and forgets his stress. The activities are varied and exciting and the kids have formed social bonds as a team that can problem solve and have fun through... read more
