Five Star Reviews

We love Kidventure Barton Creek. While we didn't have the best experience at the Blue House location for the week we needed to transfer, the Barton Creek location staff know and love my kid. In the pick up line they share all these stories of this he did and who he enjoys playing with and achievements he made that day. They also make sure he eats his lunch (or part of it, at least) and our little Gabe LOVES going there. We will miss you and appreciate all you have done for him and our family over the summer!

This is my daughter's second summer (she's now 4) and she LOVES it. Happy at drop off, happy at pick up. I was really pleasantly surprised on our first day that several of the counselors were the same as last summer and they remembered my daughter and that helped her feel so welcomed. It's pricey but there is never a dull moment at kidventure camp - splash days, rock walls, puppet shows, bounce houses, foam play, reptile meet and greets, face paint, arts, crafts - they definitely spend the money wisely. My daughter comes home worn out from her day packed with good times. I feel so great about sending my daughter here. We hope to continue as long as needed!

This year marks 5 years of working with Kidventure and there is a huge reason to why I've stuck around as long as I have! I've always enjoyed the family environment they create for everyone to feel welcomed, working with very caring people, and the amount of fun we have while still taking care of our assigned task. Working directly with our Afterschool Coordinators, Kathleen and DiAnna, has been a huge help in my life. They have directly helped me grow as a leader and with that, they have indirectly helped me grow confidence within myself outside of work! This company has helped me become the person I am today and I would love for others to experience what I have!

Kidventure is an energetic group of counselors that have a fun-filled afterschool program packed with a variety of activities for all age groups. Students love the variety of games and schedules that keep them moving seamlessly throughout the late afternoon hours. Parents love the low student-to-teacher ratios, the added layer of security, and the continuous communication. Administration enjoys meeting with Kidventure on a regular basis, as faculty appreciates the guidance with homework and friendly staff.

-Bernadette L. Drabek, Head of School St. Rose of Lima

Kidventure Finale creates a safe, engaging, and fun afternoon environment for our students. Their low student-to-counselor ratio allows for close attention and personal connections and students can pursue interests through a variety of extra offerings through Encore. It’s been a well-received and great overall experience for our students.
Thanks.

-Thomas Day, Principal Travis Elementary H.I.S.D.
