My kids went to summer camp at Mindful Makers. My girls have been to a lot of different camps and they said this one was the “best camp ever!” They had a wonderful time and made so many cool things. Highly recommend!

This was the first camp this past summer that our 5 year old attended and he had such a blast (so did we)! We couldn’t believe our eyes on the final day when the parents were invited to see their children’s work - the very many things the kids made by themselves - sun catchers, fire bowls, tie-dye t shirts, nature shakers, portfolios, sewed mini pillows etc. - were so incredible! Just the sheer number of skills and activities 5 year olds were exposed to was staggering. Overall, it was such a well-organized, structured camp with competent and kind teachers who want to impart the joy one can experience while making and learning. Will definitely be back!

Our daughter attended their summer camp for 4 weeks. She had an amazing time at the camp and learnt a lot of amazing crafts. Agnes and the other instructors were all very nice and accommodating of each kids needs. So highly recommended.

My girls had an awesome time at Mindful maker camp! I was so happy that they were able to join together during free time play and other activities too, though they were in two different groups/classes based on their age. It made drop off easier because they were together... They both made some beautiful art pieces that are now hanging on our walls! (Or on display in their room) and made some great friendships. We will definitely be back next summer!

I decided to go with Mindful Makers when buying a beginner felting set as a Christmas present for my little sister. After about a week of her using it, I can say that I'm absolutely impressed with everything this kit comes with and how well organized it is. This may be my best gift to her yet! Here are some of the things that have been stand out with this kit (when compared to others like it on Etsy) and Mindful Makers: - Good assortment of different wools. Other kits I've seen are focused on supplying enough materials to create a single project. This one let's you go beyond that. - Tutorial videos that accompany the materials. These videos provide a good progression in terms of teaching basic skills and letting beginners practice those skills on projects of varying difficulty. Without this, it would've been a lot harder for my sister to get started. - Agnes has been a pleasure to communicate with. She is very quick to respond, which made the curbside pick-up process extremely easy.
