School Break Mini Camps

Looking for an activity the kids can do during school breaks? Teatown’s Mini Camps offer fun and learning while exploring nature! 

We offer three environmental mini camps for children grades Pre-K through 5 during school break weeks. The camps are run by our environmental educators who help foster young children’s innate curiosity and enthusiasm about flora and fauna through a mix of outdoor explorations and age appropriate activities, games and crafts.

Please note, our youngest campers in Pre-K must be enrolled in kindergarten for the 2026-2027 school year; we cannot accommodate 3-year-olds.

Where do birds go in the winter? Why do trees lose their leaves? If you have a curious child that asks questions like these, Holidaze Mini-Camp is the place for your budding naturalist! Campers will learn about the wonders of winter by exploring Teatown’s various habitats along with playing games and constructing crafts. Many camp activities will take place outside, so please dress your child appropriately for prolonged outdoor activity in winter weather. Full day campers should pack a lunch and snack.

  • OPEN for Holidaze mini camp
  • LIMITED for February mini camp; full release of spots January 1, 2027

In an effort to broaden access to our break camps to more families, we are limiting initial registration for February and Spring camps to 50% of available spots. If early spots are full, please join the waitlist. The remaining spots will be released to new families in the new year, then we will move to the waitlist.

Refund Policy

Withdrawal from camp more than one week prior to the mini camp session results in a partial refund, less a 25% administrative charge based on the total camp fee, not on any deposit you may have paid. No refund for any reason within one week of session start date. After that date, tuition will be applied towards Teatown’s camp scholarship fund.

There are no exceptions made in the case of illness.
