"PlanetBravo was an unexpected gem. After comparing several tech camps and most being out of our price range, we decided to give PlanetBravo a chance and I'm so glad we did. Both our boys woke up all week super excited to get to camp and they couldn't wait to go back the next day."
"My 6 year old son had a wonderful time at PlanetBravo! We appreciated the small group sizes, personal attention, kind counselors, and lovely awards at the end of the week. It really made each child feel seen and special. I think my son learned some great computer and design skills, and will definitely send him again next year."
"We can't say enough amazing things about PlanetBravo! As an elementary science and technology teacher, I am extremely picky about the quality of the programs I send my son to - and I would be elated for him to spend the entire summer with PB! The staff are energetic and truly caring about their campers, the kids have a great balance between "screen time" and outdoor play, and it's the highlight of my son's summer- 5 years running!"
"PlanetBravo's counselors are attentive, friendly and fun. They really understand kids."
"Super trained staff, meticulously planned schedules, amazing results. During the summer break children usually don’t get excited to wake up early, yet there was absolute excitement in their eyes from a thought they were coming to your camp."
"My son loved learning more about animation and music for animation, and wants to come back next year."
"My 8-year old was nervous about attending PlanetBravo because she didn't know anyone and was worried she would be the only girl in her group. She loved STEAM week so much that she asked to go for a second week and can't wait for next summer!"
"Good balance of education and outdoor time."
"My son loved learning here! Looking forward to more weeks in 2020!"
"Nothing but positive things to say about this camp for my 1st grader. He liked the adults and the activities. He didn't want to leave at the end of the day. Looking forward to returning next summer."
"On day one both of my kids felt welcomed, as if we've been a Bravo buddy with the counselors and director for years. Thank you to the Burbank staff for their warm welcome and big energy. As a parent, a sense of belonging is all you could dream of for your kids."
"We couldn’t be happier with our experience! The organization of the camp was seamless from start to finish and everything ran smoothly, and communication was always clear and timely. The lessons were thoughtfully planned, engaging, and perfectly tailored to the kids' interests and learning levels.Most importantly, my kids absolutely loved the camp."
"My son loves PlanetBravo. We don't play video games at home but he fit right in and learned so much, and most importantly, had a ton of fun. He also enjoyed the camp's outdoor games, which were a nice antidote to the screen time. My son made some wonderful new friends this summer and is already talking about camp next year!"
"No lie, my kid would rather go to PlanetBravo than Disneyland!"
"Best camp around! Kids learn new things, make new friends, and love every second of being there. The counselors are smart, funny, and encouraging and create an environment that has our kids desperate to get there the second camp opens and then excited stories pour out of them when we pick them up. It's unlike any camp we've ever done and our kids couldn't be more lucky to have found such a place!"
"Everyone was so responsive and energetic! I loved that they took time to take a picture of each child. By far the BEST camp my son has attended."
"Kids can’t wait to get there and are already asking to go back next summer!"
"Amazing counselors! Counselors were approachable, funny, knowledgeable and responsible - the kids bonded with them immediately. "
"The counselors are amazing! PlanetBravo wins the award for the "most fun while learning camp" my child is looking forward to going again next year."
"Such a welcoming experience for all the kids, with great counselors who truly care about the kids and the subjects they teach. Our kids have an ongoing text message with their PB friends, literally counting down the days each year until camp starts the following summer."
"Good balance of on the computer and being outside!"
"PlanetBravo is the best! My son looks forward to it every summer!"
"This is where my son finds “his people”. He has made some of his closest friends here. He looks forward to it all year long."
"An amazing camp that my son attends every year -- he loves it!"
"[my daughter] loves, loves loves PlanetBravo. She is typically very shy and won't usually let me sign her up for camp without a friend. But for PlanetBravo, not only does she not care about going without a buddy, she is incredibly excited to get started. I also really appreciate that you make a concerted effort to include physical activity in the day in ways that are so fun for the kids."
"Great camp! My kids both want to go back and say that PlanetBravo is "one of the best ever!""
"All of the counselors were great - we heard lots of stories about other kids' products and about how the counselors were so fun all day (especially outside I think :-) Thank you all!"
"Best Camp Ever!! Loved the staff, [my son] can't wait to go back next summer. You guys are awesome. So organized and professional."
"My son LOVED camp this week. Learning code and Photoshop plus playing Minecraft and Dodgeball, it was the perfect week and he can't wait for next summer!"
"It was our first time at PlanetBravo and [my son] loved it. He really dug his camp counselor. Thanks for everything."
"[my daughter's counselor] was a great counselor. Loved her energy, maturity, support and overall professionalism. My daughter felt really connected to her. Everyone helped make this week the best camp week my daughter's experienced so far. Thanks to all for the hard work."
"My son said he would like give the camp 10 stars out of 10 stars if he could. Thank you for the excellent camp staff and program. Thumbs up ! :) "
"As always, PlanetBravo is amazing."
"We love PlanetBravo. Great program, great team. Thank you!"
"Best camp ever - My son loved his counselor. The finished product was incredible. YAY Planet Bravo, we will be back next year adding a couple more weeks."
"All your instructors were positive fun encouraging and just the greatest people!!! Loved watching the daily fun creative videos too!!!"
"[my daughter] has never enjoyed a camp so much! She loved the staff and the other kids... It was a big thumbs up for my daughter and she is begging me to send both her brothers next summer!"
"[my son's counselor] was awesome! Kids loved him"
"My son had the best time and is already talking about coming back next year!"
"Thank you so much for this great experience for the kids. I really appreciated the thorough measures you implemented to make sure the kids were safe (signing in & out, chaperoning the kids to use the restroom, etc.)."
"As always, staff was great and camp was terrific. Thank you!"
"This was by far the best camp my daughter has ever attended. She not only learned very practical skills, but also had a lot of fun! She is still talking about it and would attend the camp all summer long if she could!"
"My son went in not knowing anyone and had a great week, mostly due to the fun counselors who knew how to keep him involved and engaged. Thank you PlanetBravo!"
"I loved that the camp counselor remembered [my son] from the previous summer. It made [him] feel a sense of belonging and instilled confidence in him from the first day. The counselors are fantastic at the El Segundo location. Love the games they play outside and how they award the kids with a very personalized certificate of award at the end of the week. It shows how well they connect with the kids. It is really rare."
"The counselors make or break a camp. PlanetBravo hires counselors who are incredibly fun and who love to work with the kids. They also do a great job on the showcase at the end of the camp week. So much better than the higher-priced "chain" computer camps."
"My son loved this camp more than he has ever loved a camp before. Each day he was eager to get there, and it was hard to get him to leave. The counselors were wonderful - they really helped him and his fellow classmates have a great time while they were tackling some pretty complicated topics! All in all, a fantastic experience."
"This is one of the best summer camps out there. The staff is professional, kind, knowledgeable and eager to teach. My son can't wait to return next summer for more fun."
"I've sent my son to a lot of camps over the years and without a doubt, he loves PlanetBravo the best!!"
"[My daughter] really loves PlanetBravo. She enjoys learning about photography. The staff is very warm and knowledgable."
"My son said that this was the best summer ever because of PlanetBravo!"
"This was their favorite camp of the summer and they can't wait to do it again next year. They have requested at least two weeks next time!"
"The PlanetBravo Team took my shy, timid camper who had never done this camp before, or any technology camp before and turned him into a confident "techie." The best part was that they made it super fun and he got to be silly. Exploding Enchiladas, forever!!"
"We really can't say enough about the great experience the staff makes for our children.... care, fun, and learning. It is a tough combo they have mastered!!"
"My son LOVED his time at Planet Bravo. He couldn't wait to go back every day, and over the weekend, he kept saying he couldn't wait for Monday. That's NEVER happened before. Staff was so friendly and approachable, and he loved searching for Ash every day."
"This camp has it all! Friendly well knowledgeable staff. Cares about the kids! Just not stuck inside, they play games and out door activites so the mind and body have a great time! THANK YOU"
"Planet Bravo brings out the best in my son!"
"I'd like to again mention again how impressed I am with the quality of friendships that have developed between my son and his fellow campers over the years. It is like he has a second family of friends -- he has wonderful friends from school, and equally wonderful friends at camp. It really struck me this year how much they all have in common and what a super brainy and motivated group of kids they are! And, that they have been growing up together and becoming fast friends, even though they only see each other during the summer. I know these are friendships that will last a lifetime! I am so impressed with the way they are keeping in touch, and that they have already made plans to take courses together next year. I think the personal growth aspect of Planet Bravo is one of the greatest gifts your camp provides -- the counselors, friendships, and courses will benefit my son his entire life!!"
"Wonderful, Caring Staff! Keep up the good Job!"
"PlanetBravo is tops for techno camp that is child-centered and fun while unleashing creativity and teaching technical skills. My son has gone for four summers in a row and it is his favorite camp. The counselors are all young and genuinely interested in empowering the kids to grow and develop their creativity and technical abilities. Thank you PlanetBravo!"
"I love that you get the kids outside and moving around, that they are not stuck inside in front of a computer all day."
"My boys LOVE PlanetBravo and their instructors! They would spend their entire summer with you guys if we'd let them."
"This was the third stop motion camp for my son and while he has enjoyed all of them, Planet Bravo was far superior. He learned more, had more fun and can't wait to go back. Thank you."
"This is a great camp. My son has been coming here for the last 4 years and it is absolutely his favorite. He's looking forward to next year, when he will finally be in 6th grade and can take the robotics camp!"
"From a parent's perspective it was the best camp we have ever sent our son to."
"Planet Bravo is the only camp my son will attend. He absolutely loves every aspect of it - can't praise it enough!"
"The staff is so warm and friendly: I felt like they were family. I had absolutely no reservations about leaving my child in their care."
"'Best camp ever' is pretty much a direct quote from Sammy! He had such a blast, and I love getting to go to Terranea each day to drop him off and pick him up. I was very impressed with not only quality of the video game instruction, but all of the activities that he participated in all week. I loved that there was a physical /outdoor element to the camp."
"This camp was a major confidence boost for my son. He loves gaming and it allowed him to see how to make the games he loves to play. Now he is making his own games."
"The staff was amazing. You could tell that they were all truly in love with what they were doing and they had a camaraderie among them that seemed great as well."
"Loved it. Loved the Counselors, loved the program, loved everything about it and want to come back! You guys did a great job and they learned a lot."
"As a parent I was concerned about the time spent in front of the computer screen. I appreciated that ball games were played. It was interesting to note that my son is not at all interested in anything to do with a ball, but if placed with kids who have the same interests he will happily join a game. I thought it was great that everyone got an award for their work. And my son and I both loved the nicknames given to the kids and instructors."
"Everything and everybody was awesome!!!!!!!"
"This was the best group experience my son has EVER HAD!! Thank you so much. Your counselors were wonderful, and he still practices what he learned every single day! I love the positive attitude of the counselors."
"This was our boys' favorite camp for 2 years running; no doubt it will be their top pick for next summer as well."
"This was a wonderful experience because, although it was super fun, [my son] also LEARNED something great."
"If our schools educated with the same creativity, enthusiasm and ingenuity as PlanetBravo does, they would never have to worry about a child missing a single day of school or even running late for school! My son can't get enough PB...he wishes camp was seven days a week, and that the days were longer. He already knows what he wants to take next summer..."
"Enjoy doesn't even cover it...he LOVED it! I am amazed at the amount of knowledge he learned in just five days. Your staff is fabulous. It's one thing to be good with kids or good with technology. Your staff really are fusions of the two and make the camp a great experience for all the kids."
"The staff was knowledgeable, responsible, and so friendly!"
"You are the most organized group ever. I never worry about the procedures as PB is a fine tuned machine!! :) My son has finally found his peers! his niche! He not only is challenged during class, but I find it amazing that he never gets overwhelmed with information - he wants more more more. He is getting stronger and more knowledgeable every week. And just think - he is only 12!"
"PlanetBravo is consistently ahead of the curve on every front. The camp is a great mix of concentrated and directed tech time mixed with coordinated and free-form play time for balance. [My son] observed that a couple new kids who didn't know others locally felt comfortable within a day and he felt that that was due to the environment created by the counselors."
"PlanetBravo introduced my kids to robotics, game design and animation all in one summer. Every day they felt like they learned a ton and had fun. The camp offers a techie insider world with cool, challenging, and kid-friendly access. Problem solving, creating all sorts of neat stuff like games and music, and playing together inside and outside make for an all-around great time."
"[Our son] loved the game making but he also loved the outdoor time and games played in the yard. A well-rounded platform."
"PlanetBravo is the best summer camp in LA according to the needs of my son. It is a great mix of classroom and physical activities. He eagerly awaits all year long for the summer to come and participate in your programs. English is his second language, yet your friendly staff always make him feel at home."
"Honestly, I thought everyone was so terrific. My son enjoyed his week so much we just wish we had known about it sooner so we could have signed up for more weeks."
"PlanetBravo is the best camp ever! My son has attended many different types of camps, but PlanetBravo is by far, his favorite camp. He cannot wait for next summer. He says he wants to go to PlanetBravo all summer."
"All the counselors were delightful...friendly, helpful, professional...all of them obviously enjoyed their work with the kids."
"This is an incredible camp. The campers have fun while learning in a safe and nurturing environment. My son has been attending for 3 summers, and it is a joy to be a part of, both for him and for me!"
"My son didn't want to go to camp at all this summer. He had so much fun after his first week at Planet Bravo, he begged me to sign him up for the whole month!"
"I found that Maddy was excited to get out of bed and get to camp. She wanted to go the last week but had prior camp commitments. I know that with her training she received and how now she can navigate through the computer, will help her feel very confident with her technical abilities at her age. I will continue to support her since this is how we are going to communicate now and in the future. I love it!"
"It was so fun and I've been complaining to my mommy I need to go back now! arggggg I need to come back!!! I'm coming for the whole summer next year and I'm seriously not lying! (oh just one thing I would like it to be starting at 7:00am and ending at 6:00pm!)
"[My son] loved camp! Every day of both weeks he would get into the car and just go on and on about what a great day he'd had. He really enjoyed Movie Production and was quite proud of his movie! Loved making the video game and creating the challenges and levels. He made some friends, saw some kids he knew from other camps and enjoyed each of his counselors."
"I think the program was not only very professional but sensitive to the children's experience. It was very 'kid centric' but in a positive sense. Children were challenged yet considered in the planning. From the rock music on day one to the juice and cookies on the last day...I really respect the planning and execution of this camp. It rocks!"
"I originally signed my son up for 2 weeks -- he was so excited about Camp Bravo (and he's not very excited about much) I went ahead and signed him up for 2 more weeks. He was very sad when it was all over, and I know he can't wait until next year."
"Garrett has been attending camp since 2005. He has grown both in knowledge and in social situations. He has made friendships with campers from other schools which he has maintained throughout the years. I hope you will be able to continue some kind of program like Robotics and programming for the children even after 8th grade."
"This is by far my son's favorite camp of all time. We have spent thousands on other camps only to have him complain constantly and sometimes drop out. This camp was all he wanted and more. His goal is to keep going until he's old enough to be a counselor in training."
"Everything was perfect! No need for improvement because you have already achieved perfection!"
"In 9 years of camp experiences with two kids I have never seen such a high caliber staff. The courtesy and caring along with the very fun and friendly personalities made an already great program so much better. [The Director] had everyone and everything so well organized while still managing to speak personally with parents each day. The counselors did not speak down to the campers and [my daughter] really felt like they were one big group of people learning and having fun."
"You have the perfect formula – our kids are thrilled with your class. It's so invigorating and motivating for interested and capable kids. My son is already begging to take a 3rd week…"
"My kids begged me get them to camp early and actually ran into the classroom to get started each morning. I would pick them up at the very end so they wouldn't miss anything and be mad at me!"
"We were amazed at the quality of work Techno-tainment summer camp taught our 8-year-old daughter. She and three other 8-year-old campers created a story line, wrote, edited, and starred in their very own movie! It would rival any college short film. The talent in the team of counselors is phenomenal. This camp exceeded all of our expectations and as parents gave us great pride in the abilities it brought out in our child."
We look forward to seeing you this summer!
