Tiny Ones - TimberNook of Lancaster County
reviewed by Heatherjoy916
As a parent with a masters degree in speech therapy and education and training in early intervention, I have high expectations of children’s programs, quite regularly Unmet by most programs we have tried. But, Timbernook exceeded my expectations. We enrolled our 4 year old in The Story Book program and Barefoot and Buckets Dino Dig and enrolled both our 4 year old and our 2 year old in the Tiny Ones programs. All the Timbernook programs we participated in made for both very happy campers and parents. After 1 week in Story Book, it seemed our son’s confidence, creativity, Vocabulary, social skills, curiosity and independence grew exponentially. Family members said he was “a different kid”. He couldn’t stop talking about his discoveries in the woods and the adventures with his new friends. He developed a new bravery and confidence with independent exploration and problem solving. Us parents quickly had to adjust to the new “I’ll do it myself” requests. The Tiny Ones program caregiver and me, “step back and tune in” approach transformed our clingy toddler to a confident, independent, playful leader. The Timbernook programs are developmentally appropriate, excellent programs packed full of sensory, social and learning opportunities and facilitated by an experienced professional who is flexible with and responsive to the needs of the group, the weather, etc. There is freedom, safety, and movement. There are sounds, songs, stories, play, and endless opportunity to pursue whatever sensory or learning experience your child seeks in a given moment. Daily emails from Miss Crystal ( with professional photos of our children!!) And with information about what they did and learned about was something our family looked forward to each afternoon. No other program communicated so well with parents. Both our children continue to beg to return since camp ended, and of course, we cannot wait to return.

Storybook - TimberNook Tri-County
reviewed by crysi2002
I can not say enough wonderful things about this program and the women who facilitate this program. My daughter comes home everyday from camp telling us wonderful stories of adventure and friendship that has developed from programming at Timbernook. Carmen and Laura's dedication to these kids is soo very evident from the personal greeting my child and I get in the morning, personal reports of the day at pick up, and the knowledge they have about my child's interests. Also as a mom of a young child, it is soo wonderful that I get soo many pictures of her day that I can later share with my child to hear the marvelous stories of adventure that she had.

Friends in the Wild - TimberNook Tri-County
reviewed by Crisy Gowan Young
This was the best experience that I could of hoped for. My child and I were greeted every morning with enthusiasm and I when I left her there with the staff I drove away feeling great about the adventures she would have. What adventures they were!! Everyday she would get in the car and tell me stories about her day that led to great discussions and even projects at home. The staff are wonderful here and I cant wait until next year when our daughter is there again!

Enchanted - TimberNook Tri-County
reviewed by Angela Morrison
The magic is in the mess, the discovery: the mud, rocks, water, moss, finding a toad, failing at building a bridge and trying again, the team work, the imagination, the fort building, the pretending, and doing all of the things your parents would tell you not to do because you would get too dirty. I am so glad our kiddos and so many of their friends got to partake in this magic.

Friends in the Wild - TimberNook Tri-County
reviewed by Angela Morrison
My kiddos are so in LOVE with Timber Nook. It’s play the way I remember it as a kid. My sister and I would grab a bunch of stuff, inside and out of the house and create our own fun. We would make our own games and our own rules. We would use our imagination and nobody told us what to play or how to play. Timber Nook is child-centered, creative, team work, problem solving fun. It is an awesome experience for kids to be able to choose their own fun with adults that embrace all of their cool ideas and tell them to go for it! There are fun activities for the kids each day, but the direction the play takes is led by the kids.

This camp is magical. Both my eight and four-year-olds enjoyed the imaginative play and freedom to make their own choices. The theme was perfect for adventure and exploration. Thank you for a great camp experience.
