Find so many awesome summer camp themes at The Bright Spot Learning Lab! From LEGO to inventions, drama to fashion design, there’s something for every kiddo!
Why The Bright Spot for Summer Camps?
We have low enrollment caps and student to teacher ratios. This provides a wonderful community building and personalized experience for each camper. For our full week camps, there is a maximum of 14 students working with 2 teachers for the week.
Our camps are custom designed for Bright Spots by Dr. Angie Madden (Bright Spot owner, camp leader, and certified and experienced educator) in collaboration with other camp teachers to maximize creativity, engagement, learning, and fun.
We provide a welcoming, friendly, inclusive environment. The Bright Spot is a beautiful, bright, kid friendly space filled with comfy places to gather, learn, and explore with a backyard area for play, activities, and picnics. All camp leaders are experienced in the field of education and know how to relate to, guide, and connect with children to create a truly lovely, unique camp experience.
Campers will need to bring a packed lunch, water bottle, morning snack, and afternoon snack each day.
Camp is capped at 14 campers so we can all get to know each other well and build community throughout our week together.
Extended Day Options are available to add on from 8-9am and 4-5pm.
