Brooklyn - Crown Heights Winter Break Camp

We are currently at capacity for our Winter Break Camp in Crown Heights, and have closed enrollment to unregistered campers. Join our waitlist to be notified as space opens up!

When school's out, give kids what they need—freedom to expand and evolve.

At Steve & Kate’s, campers choose which activities they do, whom they do it with and for how long. For kids, this experience is pure joy. It’s also a kind of training ground for life, where they’ll need to be empowered and independent and resilient and responsible for their own decisions. Happy human-ing starts here.

Grown-ups adore freedom, too.

We’ve described the magical gift you give your kids when you empower them to make their own decisions. Now let’s talk hardcore convenience for you:

  • Buy Day Passes and send your kid to camp any day you want? Check.
  • Drop them off and pick them up whenever you want? Yup.
  • Long camp hours, all included in your camp fee? Totally.
  • Tasty meals and snacks, also included? You bet.
  • Get an automatic refund for unused days at the break’s end? For sure.
  • Do you deserve this kind of freedom? Yes, you do.

Local Camp Drop-off/Pick-Up Procedures

As we get closer to camp, we’ll email registered families a link to our virtual, camp orientation. This will provide important information such as our local camp drop-off & pick-up procedures, how to check-in and check-out of camp each day, what to bring (and not bring), and a few more camp details.

Activities

Choosing activities: the daily dilemma.

Coding. Sewing. Making. Playing. Lounging. Every day, campers face the excruciating task of choosing from these and many more engrossing activities. Some select a mix of many. Others burrow deep into one or two. Either way, each day they face new experiences bristling with trade-offs and tantalizing possibilities.

In the early morning and late afternoon, campers ramp up and wind down with recreational choices. For the bulk of the day, children will choose from the activities listed below.

Animation

Stop-Motion Animation

Kids will create, direct, and produce stop-motion animation movies & shorts with our custom animation stations.

Our camp includes an array of tasty grub throughout the day. In partnership with fan favorite restaurants, we keep kids fired up with food they love — from pizza to sandwiches to salads. We also provide rotating sides at lunch, as well as snacks for kids whenever their fuel gauge dips into the red. Chomp, chomp. Munch, munch.

Fees

What camp costs.

Perhaps you are a grown-up who loves to plan. Or maybe you’re an expert of the fine art of logistical improvisation. Miraculously, our camp fees are designed to scratch both of your respective itches. Buy any number of Day Passes, and use them whenever you want during this camp season. Don’t even bother to let us know when you’re coming — just roll up. If your plans change, don’t sweat it. We’ll automatically refund your unused Passes in full at the season’s end. How many other camps can offer you that level of flexibility?*

*Not one that we know of.

PLEASE NOTE: We are currently at capacity for our Winter Break Camp in Crown Heights, and have closed enrollment to unregistered campers. Please join our waitlist to be notified as space opens up. 

Day Pass fees cover the entire Steve & Kate’s experience, including lunch, snacks, activities and the entire day from 8:00 am to 6:00 pm.

Fee includes lunch, snacks, activities and all hours 8:00am to 6:00pm.

  • Buy any number of Day Passes and use them any day at any open location.
  • Add more Day Passes to your account at any time.
  • All unused passes are automatically refunded back at the rate you paid, by January 17, 2025.

These people are very smart. You should listen to them.

It was like a supervised free form play date with only good and shareable toys!

Even though there are so many kids, she was able to put a personal touch to it by remembering every kid’s name, being open to suggestions as well as remembering to remind my 4 year old daughter to go to the bathroom! My daughter had so much fun making a dress for her bear, making bread, dancing, playing with the weekly specials and the list goes on and on.

Staff

Our dedicated camp
team.

For our team members, giving kids the space to liberate their true potential becomes so much more than a job. Think of them as a high-energy, warm-hearted crew of child advocates who deftly balance two invaluable skills — that of providing structure and guidance, and that of staying the heck out of campers’ ways. If that’s not enough, they’re all background-checked and trained in CPR and first-aid. Say “hi” to them at camp — they’d love to meet you.
