How To Bond With Your Child Over YouTube

By Toby Foote - Posted Thu, January 18, 2018

Does your child pay more attention to the next YouTube video coming out than the words coming out of your moth? Instead of shrugging off YouTube as dumb cat videos, or worrying about the dangers, try engaging with your child about the YouTube they watch. Here are some of our best tips: Ask your child […]

My kids just completed the Tube Stars summer camp and had a great experience. They aren't really into camps, but they were excited to go each day and always had a ton to tell me afterwards. Their... teacher, Mr. Owens, was phenomenal. I would definitely recommend Classroom Antics.read more

My 2 sons attended Classroom Antics programs and both absolutely loved it! They learned and had fun! Both could not wait to go back each day. They had something to bring home which was such a... benefit. Love the attention to online and video creation as our children will need these skills in the future. Thank you!read more

What a wonderful experience. My son has struggled with participation in the past and generally had a hard time in school during 1st grade. It was great to come in to the classroom every day and see... what he had worked on and to see the excitement and pride that this program instilled in him. Will definitely be going again.read more

My daughter participated in the LEGO Stop Motion and she loved it! She came home every day talking about the videos she made and the fun she had in the class.

Amazing experience! The teachers are so dedicated and there is a very safe learning environment for all the campers. This camp was suitable for any child; my daughter went into Classroom Antics not... knowing much about her program and came out of class with loads of fun topics. Would definitely recommend this program!!read more

Outstanding way of introducing kids to technology. My daughter has gone the past two years and she absolutely loves it. She comes home excited about what they're learning and eager to keep working... on what they learned in class. Anyone who can make a 10 year old want to rush home to learn more Javascript is doing an A+ job in my book!read more

I love Classroom Antics, this program needs to be in all of the schools as an after school program. Great concept for future youth.

Classroom Antics is a wonderful program. My Grandson couldn't wait to get to class everyday to learn something new. He hated to see camp come to an end. The staff were wonderful! They were friendly... and willing to take the extra time to make sure every student understood what was being taught. I would suggest Classroom Antics to all parents and grandparents to sign up their child for the programs.read more

2019-We just finished year 2 of summer Classroom Antics classes- this time both son and daughter participated. Feel the same way as last year...this year my son took Game Design and Stop Motion Lego... Animation and daughter took Lego Programming and Game Design. Both learned lots...2018-Our son had a fantastic time attending both Minecraft and Programming: Creative Coders. I was pleased to see many diverse females and males in his class as coding skills are important for everyone! The instructors were fantastic; we received a daily email with specifics on what our son had done each day. He received a jump drive with all his programs and at the end of the week had learned a great deal and had fun doing so! I especially loved that the class had many hands-on activities so that students were not simply staring at screens for an entire session. We will definitely be back next year and bringing our daughter too, now that she will be ready!read more

The engineering classes offered through after school antics are excellent. Very hands on. Worth the fee. I chose to enroll my family to enhance our child’s introduction to science topics. Because... science often takes a backseat to other subjects in school (it’s not a required state test in elementary grades in our state) I want my child’s exposure to be comprehensive even if I have to pay for it.read more

My son completed the Stop Motion Animation Brick Flicks and loved it. He not only gained the skills of how to create a Lego movie, but learned how to use the software, camera, and his creativity to... complete the movie. He loved the camp and I was impressed with his final project! The instructors were great, too. Definitely doing this camp again next summer. Well worth it if you have a child or children who like computers and you want them to learn something more than just playing games. I highly recommend Classroom Antics!read more

So my son was in Minecraft decoding class this year and the teacher did a amazing job at teaching , answering any or all questions from my son. This is my son second time going but with a different... experience and different kind of camp based program. He came home each day so excited to tell me what he learn . He has definitely ended camp with more knowledge of Minecraft then when he first started. He told me the other day he cant wait to go back next year . so he definitely will be returning. I definitely recommend to check it out like I did . my son has a cognitive disability and he doesn't learn like other children would he's very Hands-On. so if you have a child that's a very Hands-On like mine this most definitely will work for yours and he or she will love it . pluse they get a cool t shirt and maybe something a little exstra depending on witch camp / class room they attend . but either way it was worth the exsperious all by it self .read more

We sent a youth from our group home to the Video Arcade Design camp and the staff were so helpful and patient with his needs. The youth we signed up for the camp has emotional and behavioral... struggles due to his past with biological family. The staff were so patient, caring and understanding. They didn't make him feel different or out of place. The registration process was seamless, and everything else was perfect also! Will definitely use them in the future for our other youth!read more

My son was very excited to participate in the program. The staff are very professional and able to work with kids to get the most for them out of the program. They worked with him and allowed him to... do the things that he was interested in. Just the fact that he was participating in activities that helped to expand his interest was awesome. The equipment and apps are all easy to use for a 10 year old. He will be able to build on the skills he learned at home.read more

My son truly looked forward to attending the “Game Builders” technology camp each day. He would share the highlights with our family and present what he had learned on computer. He enjoyed it so much... that he was disappointed when it finally ended. He already decided that next summer he wanted to be enrolled again. This was a great summer camp option for kids who love a variety of activities. I love that my son was challenged to be a critical thinker while learning the concept of coding to create games.read more

My ten year old son has participated in four 1/2 day camps hosted by Classroom Antics over the last two summers and he absolutely LOVES them. He can’t wait to attend each day and doesn’t stop... talking about what he learned. The communication from Classroom Antics is amazing...they send a summary every day so my husband and I can speak the ‘computer’ language which is really helpful. The staff is friendly and professional. I highly recommend this class for all kids — from those who love sports and gaming to those who love to read and conduct experiments!read more

Our son's love of technology was generated at Classroom Antics when he was seven. Now a teenager, he's gone through their programs - some more than once - and seeks out opportunities to improve his... technology skills. Classes at his school always pale in comparison to what he learned at Classroom Antics, so he ends up (often) teaching the teacher! We are so thankful for Classroom Antics!read more

My twin boys who are 11 just took the junior arcade game coding class with Miss Kit and loved it. They wanted to go to school every day that week in the summer. I think that says everything you need... to know about whether Classroom Antics is worth it! If you are on the fence, you should do it! Rebecca Tread more
