What Parents Are Saying About Magima Kids
Mr. Daniel is a warm and wonderful educator, and my daughter loved the Magima Kids experience—it was a highlight of her school week and something she looked forward to from the minute she woke up on class days.
She was able to bring all her creativity and silliness to the projects she created with her classmates and to learn about technology and collaborative work in the process. She came away from the experiences with a sense of accomplishment and pride, and we were impressed with the content the students came up with, too.
My son absolutely loved Magima Kids!
It was his first time experimenting with media arts and he looked forward to creating something new each week. Mr. Daniel is an exceptional teacher. His positive energy in the classroom created such a fun and welcoming learning environment. And the small class size was a huge plus. 10/10 - would highly recommend!
The class supported and inspired possibilities and creativity in animation and storytelling.
It also taught our child how to see them through while collaborating with other classmates. Our child was very excited to share the projects made in class. He shares just as much enthusiasm for the upcoming session.
We had a great experience with Magima Kids.
Our son looked forward to every class and always came home excited to show us what he made.
Mr. Daniel is a special talent and has created a fun, supportive place to be creative, tell stories, and try new ideas. We also appreciated how AI was introduced in a thoughtful, age-appropriate way. It felt like a safe environment to learn about these new tools while keeping creativity at the center.
If your child is interested in digital art, I'd definitely recommend Magima Kids. It built our son's confidence, sparked his imagination, and left him wanting to create even more.
Mr. Daniel's class has taken my child's imagination to a new place.
He learned how to integrate physical objects into digital art while storytelling! You could see from the digital portfolio that Mr. Daniel created and thoughtfully sent with notes on a regular basis that he truly enjoyed the class and collaborating with other students. I truly believe his class will set a foundation with how technology can be used to be creative! I am excited for him to continue to develop this skill and to continue working with Mr. Daniel. He clearly has a superpower in getting the kids really excited about learning!
We signed our daughter up for Magima Kids with Mr. Daniel and for the first time in the 5 years that she has been in elementary school, we heard all about her day!
Every week when she came home after being in Mr. Daniel's classroom, she was bursting with details and stories about her class. She was proud of her work and so excited to return each week. Mr. Daniel has created a program for children to learn how to tell stories, make movies, learn animation, build worlds, create games and play in an innovative and unique world. I had the opportunity to sit in on one of Mr. Daniel's classes and was immediately drawn into the creative and collaborative classroom. The kids were so focused and so happy - no one wanted the class to end. Including me! We will absolutely sign our daughter up again (she begged us to go back!) Thank you, Mr. Daniel
