We've tried a number of summer camps, and this one stands out. It has a clear daily rhythm, outdoor time, library/quiet time, music, and crafts, but within that structure, kids get real input into their day. Requests to try a lesson on a new instrument are welcomed and accommodated, which speaks to how much planning and flexibility goes into the program behind the scenes.
The instructors are talented musicians and also excellent camp counsellors, upbeat, attentive, and clearly good with kids. Add in generous craft supplies, lots of time outdoors, and a pace that never feels over-scheduled, and it's easy to understand why this camp has such a loyal following. I'd…Greg M.December 2025

We rely on happy bird for summer camps and pd day camps.
My kiddo doesn't have a desire to do individual music lessons :( but loves the camp.
This summer camp offers a well-considered mix of structured activities and free time, giving kids the chance to explore their interests while still having guidance and support throughout the day. There’s a good rhythm to the schedule—plenty to keep them engaged, but not so rigid that it feels overly programmed.
One of the things we appreciated most was how safe and comfortable our child felt. The environment is relaxed but clearly well-managed, with staff always present and attentive. Kids are given room to make choices and…Megan J.November 2025
We’ve been doing the Music for Young Children program with our child and they have been really enjoying it. The instructor is engaging and welcoming and the space is warm and inviting.

My son has been going to Happy Bird for several years now, from date night camp to summer/March break camps, and more recently for private piano lessons! The staff is always so engaging and friendly, and the location is great for camps (2 parks nearby, library, etc.) My son loves Happy Bird a lot and has had wonderful experience with all the teachers and kids!
Nicole is a wonderful piano teacher and has helped cultivate the love of music in my son!Kayla S.October 2025
We were promised a “good fit” private teacher for our 3½-year-old with Autism. In the middle of the first class, the assigned teacher said they were unprepared for the lesson, lacked early-childhood training/experience, weren’t briefed on age/diagnosis before the lesson, and told us that children this age shouldn't take piano lessons. They also told us we would need to find another teacher and wished us luck in doing so. They made no effort to adapt or try strategies in the moment. And all said in front of our child. We left with a child who was demoralized and felt he “wasn’t allowed to make music." Overall, this was a very poor experience. This studio needs stronger…
