Name

Hi, I’m Aaska!

"I am Aaska Patel mom of two amazing kids and owner of Challenge Island San Ramon - Bay Area location. My passion for teaching and always thinking outside of the box opened the doors for me to be a franchisee of Challenge Island. I have been serving our community for the last 6 years and I look forward to continuing to teach this wonderful program in my community. "

“Thank you again for a great program. We had some very happy kids yesterday all decked out with leis and face paint! The feedback was resoundingly positive from both kids and their parents and I wanted to share my appreciation with you. It is clear you are very tuned in to each individual and your enthusiasm is contagious.”

Public Librarian

“Our campers always love their time doing Challenge Island challenges! The Challenge Island staff is always great to work with and my staff has has nothing but good things to say about them. The kids are engaged and always look forward to the activities. As far as I’m concerned, I couldn’t have asked a better program. We look forward to having Challenge Island be a part of future camps.”

Recreation Center Director

“The 4th grade had Challenge Island come to do a STEM activity for the Model-T Assembly line today, and had a great experience. We were set up in the gym, but it could easily be done in your classroom as well. The leaders brought all of the materials, were very organized, and had a great balance of learning and fun. They have a wide variety of activities that can meet tons of different standards. Highly recommend!”

Lead Teacher

“Challenge Island came to our school and performed an in-house field trip. The children absolutely loved them! They had so much fun. One of the students even said ‘I'll never forget this!’ I recommend this to any other Readiness program, HeadStart, and every Preschool program. They are very quick to respond and very kind and caring people. We will be booking every year!"

GSRP Preschool Teacher

“Challenge Island came to our summer camp and facilitated the roller coaster activity with our entire school, which includes students from Kindergarten to 8th grade. They had such great energy, and utilized their teaching background to spark a great conversation among the students. I can't wait to work with them again!”

Summer Bridge Site Coordinator

"Challenge Island provides unique and thoughtful programming for children of all ages! Their instructors are professional and knowledgeable. Their curriculum is inspired and allows participants to explore, create and achieve remarkable things!"

JCC Camp Director

“In Challenge Island, we learned how to creatively approach problems, rather than using the rote methods that are often emphasized in elementary school. When I started college, I found myself using the skills I learned at Challenge Island far more than anything I learned in high school. Today, in my quantitative work on disease, I still constantly use the problem solving strategies I learned through Challenge Island.”

Former Challenge Island Student

“One thing that makes Challenge Island stand out from the competition is what it lacks. You’ll find no screens or digital devices in a Challenge Island program. Instead, kids working together in STEAM Teams, are encouraged to use imagination, teamwork, and problem-solving skills to come up with creative solutions to challenges using a treasure-chest full of low-tech supplies.”
