We were pleasantly surprised by the Launch camp experience for my 5yo son. We went in not really knowing what to expect. My son had a great time and learned so much - it's clear that the program and all the staff put so much effort into designing each day. We were there for the zoo keeper, detective, animation sessions. Honestly, he learned more at the Launch zoo keeper session than at the Bronx zoo camp. Highly recommend the program and we'll be back!

Launch camps are the best. Both for days off school and in the summer. My son has a blast every time he's there and I feel good that he's not only having fun, but also learning and exploring, as well. The staff are great - super friendly and well trained. There are a lot of reasons this is our go-to!

The team at Launch went above and beyond our other camp experiences to engage our kids (ages 4.5 and 8.5) in different subjects each of the 4 weeks. They came home each day eager to show us the projects they’ve done and the work they put in (fun + hands-on learning + outdoor time?! What’s not to love!). I was especially blown away by a lengthy stop-motion animation that my son did! Highly recommend this camp and team (thank you Elizabeth and Scott!).

My child had an amazing experience at Launch Math & Science Camp last summer and we are returning this summer again! The curriculum was thoughtfully designed to be both intellectually challenging and engaging, striking the perfect balance between learning and fun. The instructors were not only knowledgeable but also warm and patient, creating a supportive environment that made even complex STEM topics feel accessible. What impressed me most was how hands-on the activities were—my child came home excited to share what they built, tested, or coded each day. Whether it was robotics, coding, physics experiments, or math games, Launch kept them curious and motivated to learn more. The small group sizes allowed for individualized attention, and the staff did a great job communicating with parents throughout the session. Safety and organization were clearly a priority, and I appreciated the structured yet creative atmosphere. Overall, Launch is a fantastic investment in your child's growth and confidence in STEM. We’re already planning to return next summer, again!

Launch is the perfect camp for my math- and science-loving son. It has fun, engaging, and inventive projects (he brings home cool stuff!); small class sizes; and plenty of outside time each day. (The instructors bring the kids to Central Park to get them moving. Attend the W. 65th Street location.) My son loves the instructors—they are caring and supportive—and the camp director and site director are friendly, organized, and quick to respond to questions. 2024 is my son’s second summer at Launch. I've recommended it to others, and because of that, his best friend also went this year. I almost never leave reviews, but I’m just so happy and relieved to have discovered Launch. I found it online so didn’t know what to expect, but it has been the best experience for my son!
