Museum Based Camps
Enrolling in a city-based camp, or a museum-based camp, is a great way to expose your little one to Brooklyn’s vast culture. Some of the camps, like the ones at the Brooklyn Botanical Garden (150 Eastern Parkway), are only for a few hours. Other camps, like the one run by Brooklyn Cultural Adventures, is available all day for the duration of the summer.
