Reviews

“As a retired teacher and current Nana of five, I was impressed with the emphasis on learning through arts and crafts, play, experimentation and creativity. The three teachers bring an expertise and experience to the classes you will be happy to find. All the children in our group were attentive and eager learners. The presentations were well-paced and the instructions for the kids’ crafts participation were easy to follow…and fun.(Even for this nana.) Held at The Scoop in Fuquay-Varina, the children were able to play afterwards on the playground and explore the farm animals on site…and get a free scoop of ice cream! Thank you Otterly Curious for such a fun learning experience. We will be back soon.”

“We had a great time at the Otterly Curious Harry Potter class! My son loved the hands-on experiments, playing with fun materials, and the art activities. As a mom, I loved how engaging, well-run, and organized the class was and, even better, that I didn’t have to clean up after! We will definitely be back!”

“I have had the opportunity to take my kids to two different classes with Otterly Curious. Both classes were very well thought out, engaging and fun for my kids (ages 5 & 8). We loved the science candy class and the Harry Potter science class. Even though both were science classes, all of the experiments were different! Teachers are very warm and inviting, working with all kids individual needs. Looking forward to more themed educational activities from Otterly Curious!.”
