Active Minds Learning Camp is an experiential academic-enrichment day camp that anchors learning in field trips to places like Washington, D.C. and Philadelphia, plus swim trips and small-group learning rotations. Campers are grouped by age (K–2nd and 3rd grade up). The camp day runs 8:30am–4:30pm, and the program participates in Maryland's scholarship program, covering most costs for qualifying families. It operates at several Baltimore-area locations.

★★★★★Crystal M.Amazing camp and great team. The activities planned for the children are fun and well-organized.
★★★★★Suzanne R.I love Active Minds! I sent two of my kids there over the course of a few years - both over the summer and also for before/after school care. I never had to worry because I knew that they were safe and having fun and making friends. Active Minds also goes above-and-beyond; rather than just being a "daycare provider", they work really hard to offer fun activities, outings and day trips. I also love how they posted to their FB page so that I could "see" how much fun my kiddos were having, all week long! I even invited grandparents, aunts and uncles to the Active Minds facebook page so that they could feel a "part of" my kids' experience. My kids have gotten older and no longer do *any* type of before/after school care - but I recommend Active Minds, any time that friends/family are asking for suggestions. Thanks to Mike and his amazing staff for taking such good care of my kiddos for so many years! (One of my kids still even keeps in touch with one of his former Active Minds teachers on messenger :)
★★★★★Amber DepewMy son started at the before and after care during the pandemic. Not only was the staff able to get him into classes, the summer camp adventures were the best we've experienced. From Hershey Park to the museums in DC, such an amazing experience. The location has special hand cleaners, staff that cares and honesty with the parents.
★★★★★Jeremy MedlockMy son is in 3rd grade & has been with Active Minds since Kindergarten. It's almost like a second home to him with how comfortable he's been with the staff and students. He gets to meet kids from other schools which he really likes. Anytime he's off school for holidays he always chooses to hang out with Active Minds because of these relationships. I love knowing he's so comfortable there with his friends. Mike and his staff are very responsive and paying for weekly coverage through the app is really convenient. Can't say enough great things about them, we've been blessed to find a place that worked early on and haven't had to make any changes.
★★★★★Caitlin Mahoney CarlsonThe director is organized and responsive. All of the teachers and assistants have been amazing. The provide a safe and fun atmosphere for the kids during after school care and virtual learning. This will be our first year doing the camp but my kids are excited for it!
