Hear What Parents Have to Say!

The Literacy Camp isn’t only something your kids will love, parents love it too! Over 600 families have experienced the magic of The Literacy Camp over the last 6 years. We can’t wait for your family to be among our community of Literacy Campers! Here are a few testimonials from previous camps.

“If it’s totally not possible that is OK but after this great first day, my son begged me to ask— is there a way we could pay and do full day the rest of the week instead of half day? He told me after camp today that this is the best thing he has done in his entire life!”

“My daughter was super nervous about camp as this was the first she had ever attended. But after the first day she was so excited to go back! And by Friday she was begging to go another week and didn’t want it to end! Thank you for creating this and allowing her to have so much fun. We will be back next year, and so will her sister!”

“My son has really enjoyed being at camp this week! I am amazed that he recalls so much about what he did during the day! You have a special formula!”

“I knew this would happen. My daughter goes for a week and now she wants to go the rest of the weeks! She loves your camp! She says it is better than her _____ camp. Can we sign up for more?!”


“Hi there!! My daughter is having the best time and we truly love this camp! I’d sign her up for the next session if it wasn’t during our vacation. Thank you so much!”

“My daughter enjoyed camp again this year! Thanks Literacy Ladies, for your great program!”

“My kids are loving it! My son who didn’t want to go asked to be able to go back next week and is bummed that it is over with this week.”

“You are on top of everything ladies! What a great week!”

If you’re still on the fence…here’s a little more feedback for you…

These are specifically from parents who have children that developed a love for learning at The Literacy Camp that they did not previously have…


“Our son absolutely loved The Literacy Camp! The teachers were energetic and extremely positive. We loved how they made learning fun for our son, and he came home excited everyday about what he had done. If we could send him there for half days everyday during the summer, we would!”

“My son was pretty upset that he was signed up for ‘reading camp’ during the summer. After the third day, he asked if he could go another week! He’s never been excited about reading – until now!”

“My son was never one to be interested in reading and writing and he came home after camp everyday excited and wanting to go back.”

“I noticed over the remainder of the summer that our daughter was picking up regular books and reading them to her little sister. She didn’t previously have the confidence to read anything other than leveled readers, so that was a big deal!”

“Literacy Camp inspired a love of writing in my son that he didn’t have before!”

“Our son was so mad that he had to attend a reading camp during summer break. The third day in, he asked if he could go for another week! For the first time, he’s excited to read and write! Thanks Ladies!!”

“My child was apprehensive about camp, but after the first day, she couldn’t wait to go back. By the last day, she was telling me she was ready to sign up for next year!”

“My daughter had a great time attending her first year of The Literacy Camp and told me on the second day that she couldn’t wait until next year’s camp! It was so nice to see her excited about reading and writing and tapping into a creative side that I never knew existed. I highly recommend this for any age. All the teachers made it extremely fun for the kids.”


And for those of you with kiddos that already love reading and writing – this is what the parents like you have had to say about The Literacy Camp…

“My child loved everything about The Literacy Camp. She already had a love for reading and writing and this great experience just helped foster that even more. Thank you!”

“The Literacy Camp helped my child get extra practice and renewed excitement about reading and writing during the summer. She loved having lots of time to read, write and be creative and learned new ways to think about reading and writing that she can take with her into the new school year!”

“My son learned how to free write and that allowed us a bridge for the summer of additional reading and writing. His enjoyment of learning and applying what he has learned has given him more self confidence. The Literacy Camp is a great way for a child to be excited about reading and building their skills over the summer months.”

“My daughter truly enjoyed every part of camp! She has attended for 2 years and I love to see her excitement to get up and go to camp! She has already asked if she can attend next summer! Camp sparks her continued interest in reading and writing!”

“For a second year, my son has asked to attend Literacy Camp! He has told several of his friends throughout the school year how much fun ‘summer school’ is! My husband and I can see the confidence he gains after just a few days working with the Literacy Ladies. A fun camp that gets kids excited about reading and writing is always worth the money!”

“Our child is academically strong, but needs encouragement to get excited about school and learning and trying new things. We have loved that Literacy Camp has sparked this excitement and enthusiasm in him. He has looked forward to each day and wants to continue next week and next summer!”

“This camp is a wonderful learning experience. It’s a great way to make reading and writing fun!! My daughter wishes she could go to The Literacy Camp all summer!”

This feedback speaks for itself. It’s why we do what we do. It’s why we believe more children need access to The Literacy Camp – children of all ages, backgrounds, and academic levels. It’s why we know that this kind of powerful, authentic, and fun educational experience is going to be a game changer for kids and families everywhere. Even virtually!
