Camps
At OWP, we want all children to feel safe, comfortable, and excited to grow. In order to help facilitate a smooth transition from home to school, we have carefully developed a process to ease the adjustment for your child. We would love all students and campers to benefit from this process. Our one day and one week camps are unfortunately too short for a proper phase-in program. Accordingly, if this is your child's first school experience, we encourage you to consider enrolling for our summer camp or applying to our preschool.
All of our camps include a welcoming introduction at the beginning of the day, so that students can get to know classmates and friends both new and old. Campers bring lunch and receive snack, and we make sure to include a nap each day, depending on age. In addition to our themed activities, we spend a large portion of each day outside in our outdoor learning spaces or a nearby playground. For camps longer than one day, every Friday is a party!
A sample daily schedule might look something like this:
Arrival and ¡Bienvenida!
Outside Playing and Learning
Círculo
Community Snack
Inside Learning and Playing
Wrap up
Dismissal
Note: One World Project camps are open to both current families and families who are new to OWP. No previous knowledge of Spanish is necessary for camp. Children ages 6 months to 11 years are eligible for all our camps.
Upcoming Camps:
Esculturas Maleables
One-day Camp: October 2
For children from 6 months to 11 years old
Join us for a day of tactile exploration. We will use beautiful, high quality, soothing materials to create art (all in Spanish, of course!) We’ll explore lots of different textures, surfaces, and stuff all around us, and let ourselves be inspired to make things we’ve never seen before. We can’t wait to see what surprises are in store!
Percusión
One-day Camp: October 20
For children from 6 months to 11 years old
Rhythm and groove are the building blocks of so much of our favorite music, and especially important in all kinds of different music around the Spanish-speaking world. Join us to learn more about bomba, salsa, cumbia, guaguanco, and much more — that’s only the tip of the iceberg. We’ll talk about some basic percussion techniques, learn about different kinds of drums and rhythm instruments, and spend time creating and improvising as a group.
taller de arte global ~ mid winter break camp
Week-long Camp: Feb 16-20
Your schedule, your choice! Participate one, two, or all days of the week.
For children from 6 months to 11 years old
Please join us for OWP’s Taller de Arte Global, a week-long camp over February break (February 16 to February 20). Throughout the week, we will be learning about an incredible line up of visual artists from near and far.
Each day, campers will be introduced to an artist, learning about their life, medium and artistic techniques. We'll be creating with clay, making collages, painting, experimenting with photography, working with textiles, building upcycle sculptures, and practicing Spanish.
seeds and chefs ~ Spring break Camp
Week-long Camp: April 6-10
Your schedule, your choice! Participate one, two, or all days of the week.
For children from 6 months to 11 years old
What are your children doing for Spring Recess? At OWP we will be digging in dirt, planting veggies, testing recipes, and practicing Spanish as part of our Seeds & Chefs camp.
Our garden will be back and ready for action after a long winter, and we can’t wait to share it with you. We are so excited to spend time in nature, and we can’t wait to see what surprises are in store. Campers will learn more about where their food comes from, who and what helps it grow, and how it gets from the garden to our plates.
Construye y arregla
One-day Camp: May 27
For children from 6 months to 11 years old
Our last one-day camp of the year will be focused on building! We’ll follow our imaginations wherever they take us, and explore different styles and methods to construct and build. We’ll talk about different kinds of buildings, different tools to help us make them, and get plenty of hands-on experience. We'll also talk about the idea of sustainability, and the impact we can have on the world around us! Developing the skills to fix and build gives us the chance to give old materials a new life, to reduce the things we use and the things we throw away, and thus to deepen our connection with the environment.
Join us as we develop and improve our fine motor skills, push the limits of our creativity, and MAKE something of our very own (while practicing lots of Spanish, of course!)
Past Camps:
UPCYcling, ¡No es una caja!
Two one-day camps: September 23 and 24
Pick your days: Join us for a single day or both days of fun and creativity!
For children from 6 months to 11 years old
At OWP, we love finding new ways to use old materials, and giving well-loved items a second life! Come join us as we look for ways to extend our creativity, make art and sculpture, find construction projects around school, and think deeply about the impact we can have when we choose not to throw something away. Students will investigate what it means to connect with our environment, and the opportunities that you can find by reusing and repurposing everyday objects into something more.
!Hola! Summer CAmp 2025
Hola Summer is a way for campers to learn about our teachers’ home countries without leaving Brooklyn. Each day will include art, music, and games inspired by our destinations.
This year we will be exploring:
Ecuador: July 7 - July 18
El Salvador: July 21 - August 1
We are so grateful for our spectacular teachers from these countries, who will share their experiences, ideas, and traditions as we learn more about the incredible diversity in the Spanish-speaking world. Sample activities might include preparing and tasting traditional recipes from these places, studying and making art and music from the region, and visiting with guest artists and artisans in the community. As always, we make sure to offer ample time outdoors in our garden, in the sprinkler, or on a field trip to a nearby playground.
Families can enroll for the whole month, or for as many weeks as you wish.
