★★★★★Grace WidaMy son loves all the camps and sessions during the year. His favorite part is all of the art and free time they have to be creative. He's made so many friends here and wants to keep coming back!
★★★★★Joni MillerMy daughter participated in Terra Time for the first time this year at the recommendation of a friend who had done it before and wanted someone to come along. She absolutely loved it and came home muddy and exhausted every day. We appreciated the "no electronics" rule very much and it was honestly good for both of us. We really appreciated the attentiveness of the staff and the daily emails with summaries and lists of "overheard" quotes from the kiddos throughout the week. She definitely wants to attend again next year!
★★★★★Corrie VossTerra time is a wonderful program!! The teachers are present and intentional, the grounds are incredible for hosting children and encouraging them in explorative/ imaginative play, and the communication is excellent! This program is very well thought out and has been such a wonderful experience for our family! I Highly recommend!!
★★★★★Joan NiswongerWe absolutely love TerraTime! My kid just finished attending their summer camp, and it was so fun! TerraTime offers an excellent opportunity for children to engage in outdoor learning and play. Their program blends outdoor exploration with hands-on learning, nurturing a deep love and respect for nature in young minds. Over the year that my child attended their Friday program, she developed her communication skills, social skills, problem solving skills, and creativity skills. She had learned so much while playing outside in nature. Ms. Terra is very professional and accomodating, we love her and all the assistant teachers! If you want your child to explore and appreciate nature while gaining valuable life skills, Terratime is perfect!
★★★★★Amanda WoodardTerraTime is truly the best! I started my 5 year old here for Pre-K. He has grown so much and made new friends. It has been such a blessing. Such a blessing, that we have decided to homeschool him a few years so he has the opportunity to keep attending. The smile we see on his face every day we pick him up and the experiences he talks about are well worth it. Thank you for all you do Terra!
