Idea labs is a great place for the kids to learn and engage in safe and positive environment. My son attended a science camp. He learnt the science concept in fun way. We definitely felt kids got the knowledge and were provided the opportunity to be creative. The programs are quite different and helps kids promote out of the box thinking that will help them to be successful in future. Staff are knowledgeable, enthusiastic, courteous and friendly. We will definitely enroll our son in future programs and highly recommend Idea Labs to all our friends and family.

We had our daughter’s party here and it was fantastic. The party hosts were great with the kids and helped during the party set up and clean up. Children had a brilliant time at the glow in dark science party!

My kids have enjoyed summer camps at Idea lab Kids for two years in a row! My eldest said she prefers their camp to other ones because she actually learns some new skill each time. They did the baking camp their first year and LOVED it. This year they did an art camp and learned to make CGI animations. The staff is warm and friendly and the facilities are clean and super safe. I love their system for drop off and locking the doors once the drop off time is over. We will be going back again - highly recommend!

I really enjoyed summer camp once again. I really liked the coding and robotics classes because I want to become a computer scientist one day. The owner and the counselors were nice!

This has been an excellent summer camp experience for our three oldest children, ages 7, 8, and 9. The kids attended full day camp all but two weeks of the summer vacation. They've been excited to go to camp every morning and beg to stay for after-care. Needless to say, they're now sad that the summer is coming to an end and they're already planning for next summer's camp. Their favorite camp themes have been cooking, medical professionals, and toy engineering. They come home with handmade models, diagrams, worksheets etc. of everything they have learned about at camp that day. I appreciate the academic setting of the camp, as well as the hands-on "craft" experiences of building models. Both the kids' minds and hands have been kept busy all summer long. They now talk to each other about things like DNA, anatomy, and aerodynamics at the dinner table. The owner, Ms. Anju is wonderful and my kids speak highly of her and her staff. I also appreciate that the instructors have teaching experience and knowledge in the subjects being taught to the kids. This is a great choice if you're looking for a fun and educational experience for your child.

Not happy with owner and manager. All 3 of my children were not comfortable at the summer camp by Idea Lab Kids in Pearland. The older two were enrolled in the cooking camp and the youngest in art camp. Day 1 of the camp, I received a call saying the art camp teacher couldn’t make it and so they were placing my youngest in another camp for that day. That was fine but also made me nervous. All 3 children complained that some of the staff were mean and made them feel uncomfortable. When I came to pick up my children, the owner and manager felt the need to complain about my daughter but didn’t give me sound reasons to complain. She said my daughter was being difficult and arguing. I of course heard her out and then asked my daughter her explanation. My son also chimed in. Come to find out my daughter was spoken to rudely and was simply asking questions because no expectations had initially been set and the owner did not like the questions. Her justification was that she had been in the industry for a long time and that “you can just feel when children don’t want to listen and want to be difficult”. That was a red flag for me and I do not feel comfortable sending my children to a place whose owner feels this way about kids. My children did really enjoy the art teacher and cooking teacher though it seems that the owner is present all day and rude enough to the point the children did not want to go back.

Update - seeing the review below I want to clarify everything I said was accurate. I will give examples of what was rude. For example, the art teacher told my daughter and son they could go to the lobby room area. They did and they saw a ball and were gently playing with it. The owner came in and reprimanded them. She immediately addressed them as “problem children” questioning why they were there and telling they should be in their classroom. They said that the art teacher permitted that and she got upset with them instead of recognizing her and her staff were clearly not on the same page. She also told them they cannot play with the ball and she told my daughter “you’re older you should know better.” My daughter respectfully told her she didn’t think she was doing something wrong and didn’t know it was not permitted to play with the ball because there were no rules posted and nothing verbally mentioned before that either. The owners gave them an attitude and told them to go back to class. When I came in this is what she felt warranted letting me know that there was a behavior issue. Do not trust this place if management views children in this manner.

Ms. Anchu and her team are amazing! My kids have attended various camps here like cooking, coding and computer animation and have enjoyed the curriculum, the instructors and the whole vibe. Thankful for IdeaLab remaining open during COVID-19 and for Ms. Anchu adhering to protocols. You're kids will love it!

Idea Lab hosted our 3 year olds birthday party. They were extremely accommodating and came up with age appropriate fun experiments. The kids loved it and we had so many compliments on the party. The staff was sweet, patient, and excellent with the children. Thank you for all your help and hosting our little princess!
