Summer Scene at The Little School combines the fun of a summer camp with early childhood learning in a structured, nurturing environment under the guidance of our acclaimed teachers. Children enjoy adventure filled days that incorporate active athletic play, swimming at the Scarsdale Pool, art projects, music, play centers, and plenty of time outdoors. Each week features a different Theme Adventure or Special Event, creating added excitement and learning opportunities. This engaging agenda gives children a chance to expand their talents & interests, build self-confidence and create lasting friendships.
