Testimonials

Sensory Quest is a wonderful hands-on STEAM exploration of favorite children’s stories. My 5-year-old daughter looks forward to it every week. I love when she explains the stories and acts them out for me afterward.

I am grateful for this class because my sensory-seeking 4-year-old loves all messy play while I do not enjoy having it in my home. Ms. Angie provides a wide variety of tactile experiences while pairing them with a story to create a multifaceted educational experience.
