Please understand that if we notice any child feeling unwell at any point, parents will be immediately contacted and must pick up their child(ren). We will gently isolate the child(ren) from the other kids until their parent arrives.

⚠️ To ensure that everyone is safe and healthy, and to minimize any potential health issues during camp, parents/legal guardians must inform us promptly if there's any signs of health/COVID-19 symptoms in your household, in writing, prior to the start of your reserved camp day(s). ⚠️

DID YOU RECEIVE MY REGISTRATION?

Once you submit your form, a message will appear to tell you that we will typically respond (via email) within 24-48 hours of your submission.

Anything submitted after business hours on Friday and into the weekend, will be addressed on the following Monday (or Tuesday).

If you haven't received a follow up or confirmation by then, please double check your spam folder first before reaching back out to us to double check if we have received your registration.

IS THERE STILL SPACE AVAILABLE IN YOUR CAMP?

We make all efforts to update our website as soon as possible when we are near or at capacity, to ensure accurate availability.

However, please keep in mind that we approve registrations on a first come-first serve basis and as such, available spots may already be full by the time we get to your registration.

This may happen if we receive multiple registrations at the same time.

HOW DO I CANCEL OR RESCHEDULE MY CHILD'S CAMP REGISTRATION?

Proper notification must be done no later than 48 hours before the scheduled camp date, so we can potentially accommodate people on the waitlist.

Proper notification: Email sent to Happy Hands (hhpottery@yahoo.com) within 48 hours of your scheduled reservation.
If you call the studio to cancel or reschedule, you must email us as well.
You must get an email from us confirming your request to avoid miscommunications.

To reschedule to another camp day: Requests are not guaranteed and are subject to availability.

It is your responsibility to reach out to us if there are any changes.

Per our no-show policy, If we do not receive an email from you and your child is then not present at camp, you may subject to be charged for the daily camp rate of $79 per child.

What's the age range for kids to participate in your camps?

Our programs are typically designed for kids 4-10. Most kids who attend are between the ages of 4-8. We've had older kids attend, as old as 12, though it's usually because they have a younger sibling that is also attending.

Some camps have more younger kids (4-6), while others have more older kids (7-10). Depends on who signs up for a particular camp. As some kids are social butterflies and will happily chat with kids of any age, others may be much more reserved. We always encourage kids to be signed up with their friends and/or siblings, so they know at least 1 other kid in the camp.
